After knocking on the door all season, Stewarton finally came home the victors from the Edinburgh tournament. Karina Bowlby, Peter Emerson, Jose Von Potobsky and Dietrich Zank claimed the spoils after some hard fought matches.
Satuday pitched Stewarton against Border Rievers. The match was a bruising affair and the score tight throughout. Stewarton finally went ahead in the last chukka but in the last minute of the game, Karina Bowlby suffered a bad fall after a Reivers player came into her horse at a sharp angle sending her flying from the horse. This fall which was just sixty yards from the Reivers goal could have easily led to them tieing the game, if she had not recovered to finish it. As it was Karina was able to get back on and the Reivers were just prevented from knocking in the goal, giving Stewarton the win.
On Sunday, Stewarton yet again had to play Edinburgh. The crowd expeceted a thrilling final and were given one. The first two chukkas ended scoreless and strong defence from both sides prevented the other scoring. In the third Edinburgh went ahaead but Stewarton pulled back and so the score went back and forth until the fourth chukka when Stewarton gained momentum adding to their scoreline and eventually winning 4.5 - 2.
