Twenty teams, including Diponegoro 80 Indonesia and Jakarta Hockey Club, took part in the two-day competition.

In the junior category, 23 boys and 20 girls teams took part.

SK Bandar Baru Seri Petaling emerged champions in the boys' category after thrashing SK Sri Delima 3-0 in the final.

SK Petaling Perdana and SK Bukit Bandaraya drew 1-1 after full-time in the girls' final before the former edged the latter 3-2 in the penalty shootout to be crowned champions.

Among those present were RSC hockey convener James Sia; RSC vice-president Julie Hoh; its sports chairman Godfrey D'Cruz; Penang Sports Club president Dr S. Shanker; and hockey legends Datuk R. Yogeswaran and Datuk Poon Fook Loke.
