The previous tournament was held on 22 November 2015 at Shalika and DSS College grounds. After the tournament got underway in glorious sun shine, the heavens opened in the evening, forcing the Men’s tournament to a standstill at the Semi-Final Stage; subsequently the Winners and Runners-Up were decided by a toss of a coin.
Jetwing Sea Negombo was the Winner and Camelot Beach, Negombo was the Runners-Up; the women’s final, which escaped the rain, was won by Amaya Hills, Kandy beating their sister hotel, Amaya Lake, Dambulla.
