Since 1980, the winners have qualified to represent Ulster in the Kate Russell All-Ireland Schools Hockey Cup.
The trophy is a small silver cup mounted on a plinth on a wooden shield.
The final attracts a crowd of roughly 1000 people, which is large for an attendance at a hockey match in Ulster.
The Royal School, Armagh, captained by Anna McKew, defeated Strathearn 2–0 in the final played at Stormont.
The victory meant The Royal School completed a league and cup double.
