Second place was awarded to Derg Valley with the team made up of Gareth Hamilton, James Smith, Hannah Hawkes and Alison Neville. City of Derry were awarded third place with the team made up of members Lynne Montgomery, Emma Montgomery, Joel Eakin and Cameron Nutt.
Matt Robinson was the judge of the final, and YFCU would like to thank Matt for his time. The finalists were judged on the structural strength of the Rally Bell box; their craftsmanship/team work; the ability of the box to fit the purpose and the ability to use all the materials provided. Finally the boxes were judged on their uniqueness and imaginative design.
