Leeds won the trophy by beating Huddersfield in the final by the score of 10–2.
This was Leeds' second of six victories in a period of ten years, during which time they won every Yorkshire Cup final in which they appeared.
The actual area was at times increased to encompass other teams from outside the county such as Newcastle, Mansfield, Coventry, and even London (in the form of Acton & Willesden.
The Rugby League season always (until the onset of "Summer Rugby" in 1996) ran from around August-time through to around May-time and this competition always took place early in the season, in the Autumn, with the final taking place in (or just before) December (The only exception to this was when disruption of the fixture list was caused during, and immediately after, the two World Wars) This season there were no junior/amateur clubs taking part, no new entrants and no "leavers" and so the total of entries remained the same at fifteen.
The club finally moved out in 1998 to take part ownership and ground-share with Halifax Town FC at The Shay Stadium.
