Dunman High School (DHS) were close behind with 11 points, Anglo-Chinese Junior College (ACJC) were in 3rd spot and River Valley High School (RVH) completed the top 4 teams.
Onto the semi-finals, defending champions RI took on the Dunmanians and it was the latter taking home the 1-0 victory. Meanwhile, ACJC defeated RVH 7-6 in the 1st playoff. The ACSians advanced to meet Raffles Institution in the 2nd playoff, where ACJC prevailed 6-5 to reach the grand final. The stage was then set at River Valley High School, for the clash between ACJC and Dunman High School on 24 May.
