won the trophy by beating Featherstone Rovers by a score of 12-9.
This was only Hull FC's second Yorkshire Cup win (the previous being in 1923) in thirteen final appearances, and in many quarters the club had been classed as "the bridesmaid but never the bride".
This was the last Yorkshire Cup final for nine years in which the attendance would reach 10,000.
This season there were no junior/amateur clubs taking part, no new entrants and no "leavers", so the total of entries remained the same, at sixteen.
The record attendance was 40,175 for a league match between Leeds and Bradford Northern on 21 May 1947.
