MI6 capture top title at Edinburgh for the second straight year
Twenty-eight teams contested the 2018 Edinburgh Festiball Tournament over the weekend of 25-26 August, with MI6 from London winning the top title for the second year in a row with a 7-1 win over the Manchester Lions in the Grand Final.
The game was a repeat of last year’s final, and the unfortunate Lions have now been the losers in the last three Grand Finals at the tournament.
On Saturday, the weather was warm and sunny, but there was rain on Sunday morning and though Sunday afternoon turned dry, it also turned cold.
