The top two teams from each grade competed for the premiership, with wild weather causing semi-final action to be cancelled.
This means each game was a top-of-the-table, first against second clash, providing entertainment galore on the day.
In the A-grade final, Shepparton Lawn Blue took out the title, downing Mooroopna Lawn 6-44 to 2-25.
The Blues, made up of Aditya Bhattacharya, Lorenzo Rigoli, Kade Madigan, Aden Schreck and Ruby O’Callaghan, were to strong on the day, with two big, 6-0 doubles wins helping the side over the line.
In the B1-grade, Kialla Park Gold 6-43 defeated Shepparton Lawn Green 2-31.
Gold, with a team including Arjen Kop, Liam Ross, Jess Joseph, Theo Kop and Billy Kop put on a great performance, only dropping two rubbers on the day.
The B2-grade premiership was awarded to Kialla Park Blue, which won the final without playing due to a Tatura Lawn forfeit.
The B3-grade final on the other hand went down to the wire, with Shepparton Lawn Yellow downing Shepparton North by one game.
