Double Action were crowned champions after a thrilling 4-2 victory over Mexican Girls in the final played on Sunday. The action-packed tournament, which consisted of the best eight teams from each region started on Friday with the group stages.

We also need to start planning early so that we do not leave some aspects out,” Disang said.
