Leeds won the trophy by beating Wakefield Trinity by the score of 8â0
The match was played at Fartown, Huddersfield, now in West Yorkshire. The attendance was 17,685 and receipts were £1,183
This was Leeds' third of six victories in a period of ten years, during which time they won every Yorkshire Cup final in which they appeared
Background
This season there were no junior/amateur clubs taking part, no new entrants and no "leavers" and so the total of entries remained the same at fifteen.
This in turn resulted in one bye in the first round.

Notes
- Fartown was the home ground of Huddersfield from 1878 to the end of the 1991-92 season to Huddersfield Town FC's Leeds Road stadium, and then to the McAlpine Stadium in 1994. Fartown remained as a sports/Rugby League ground but is now rather dilapidated, and is only used for staging amateur rugby league games.
