  1. Because of the May riots , the final had to be postponed by three weeks. At the end of regular time it was 6: 6, after extra time 9: 9. Lourdes FC were declared champions because they had two attempts and Toulon none at all; in addition, it was no longer possible to schedule a third final so late as the French national team was about to leave for a tour of New Zealand and South Africa.
