In the end, the large Karlsruhe squad played a decisive role in the very physical game. So the WG won with 11:8 and entered the final.

Unfortunately, after the semifinals, a thunderstorm upset the otherwise smooth course of the tournament. The thunderstorm with heavy rain made most of the grass fields unplayable, so it was decided to play only the final. The final itself then took place again in the best weather conditions.
