The competitions have been playing for over a decade, but Group Nine proved too strong with a 20-12 win at Laurie Daley Oval on Saturday.
Coach Bailey Porter thought Group Nine's speed on the edges proved to be the difference.
"In the end we really ran away with it out wide," Porter said.
"We played a real running-style game which suited us and obviously didn't suit Group 20 too well."

The visitors opened the scoring, and the two sides were locked at 6-all at half-time, before Group Nine fired in the first three tries in the second half to set up a winning advantage. Group Nine were victorious for the first time in 2017 before Group 20 ensured the status quo was resumed last year.
Porter was thrilled to take the win over their big rivals.
"It was good to finally get one back," she said.
Emily Perrot and Madison Dunn led the charge while Young teenagers Sienna Smith and Alyssa Wonson also impressed as they stepped up to the open ranks. Meanwhile the Cheryettes continued winning ways with a 34-6 over Tigers.
