Kennedy was handed the Best Batsman Award after the game, while Seastron won the Most Promising Cricketer honours.
Gladstone Road’s Luke Bennett won the Best Bowler Award.
Cayton teacher and cricket coach Mark Vasey was quick to sing the praises of his side.
Vasey said: “We’ve got our name on the trophy five times now, which is a great achievement.
“All bar one of the players, will be able to play next year as well, so things are looking good.
“It was a great team effort by all the players.”
