Balls Deep have secured their maiden division one grand final win over Flickers to conclude summer season.

Jack Leavers and James Wilson proved instrumental with a try each. 

It was the first time Flickers had reached a grand final in their three years in the competition. 

Embarking as a team filled with individuals, now a rock-solid squad with grand final experience. 

Tom Cockrill scored Flickers two tries through his speed and kicking ability.

The longest-serving Kick It team ran away with a 6-3 win over Slap Happy in the division two final. 

Player of the match Anthony Hanna crossed for four tries in a defining performance that included two long-range efforts.

Mens Allstars representative Jed Cartwright crossed for a try of his own, and laid on one for Hanna. 

Edge defence from Renaee Shaw-Roach and Leisl Pederson was pivotal inn shutting down any chance of a Slap Happy come back.

It wasn't all one way with some classy touches by the experienced players in Slap Happy. 

Well-worked tries to Clancy Tickner and Justin Noonan kept pace with Dugongs for much of the match. 

It's Slap Happy's second consecutive division two grand final without a desired result. 

Dugongs make it two division two wins in the past three years. Well done!

Untouchies have recorded their thirteenth Toowong grand final win with a hard-fought 4-3 victory in extra-time against Hey Furston.

In a clash between Kick It's most experienced team, and newest team, it was Hey Furston who started fast, scoring the opening two tries.

A two-point girl try to Olivia in the opening four minutes set the stage for an almighty battle.

Australian Mens Allstars' representative Sean Austin crossed two minutes after to blow the lead out to 3-0, with a shocked Untouchies watching on.

'Lets get back into this' was the message as Untouchies returned to their fast, high percentage style of play.

Hey Furston mirrored them, combining speed and direct rucking, a hallmark of their summer season success.

Untouchies got on the board late in the first half through captain Tony Martin, who supported a line break made by Darcy Coleman.

A 3-1 half time lead to Hey Furston set up an enthralling second half as both teams formed a huddle and voiced their game plans.

End-to-end footy ensured a fast and open start to the half.

This time, it was Untouchies who gained ascendency early, cracking the Hey Furston line five minutes into the half through a Gerard Martin short ball to Charlie Carswell.

The momentum stayed with the experienced group with Matt Turland scoring shortly after to bring the scores level with 10-minutes to go.

A case of deja vu with both teams settling into a chess-like rucking pattern.

The kicking games of both teams became a focal point as the minutes ticked by, however neither team was able to land a final blow.

At the end of 40-minutes the scores were tied 3-3.

A new adaption to extra time rules ensures that teams start the period with all six players. 
For the first three minutes, teams remain with six. Teams will drop a player at the start of the 3rd and 4th minute, until we get a 4-on-4 match.
Golden point rules apply.

Starting with the ball, Hey Furston lasted just three touches before making an error, gifting Untouchies the ball in plus territory.

In true Untouchies fashion, they drove the ball down the field, pushing Hey Furston to the goal line, and made them pay.

On touch four, Gerard Martin crossed for the match-winning try after a series of short passes.

The win marks Untouchies 13rd in their Toowong grand final win, and their first since 2013.
Untouchies are the most successful Kick It team in history. Swoop (9) and Pink Bits (8) round out an impressive top three teams.

Hey Furston becomes the first Toowong team to reach a division 1 grand final and take it to extra time in their first season.
They also become the first team Toowong team to reach a division 1 grand final in their first season since Yeah Yeah Nah in 2011.
