The under-16 division 1 grand final will be between minor premiers Raymond Terrace and Tenambit Morpeth.
Terrace made 168, with Lachlan Page top scoring with 64, to defeat Northern Suburbs 111 to in their semi-final at Morpeth Oval on Saturday and Sunday.
Tenambit Morpeth made 9/163 to account for City United (69) in the other semi final played at Kurri Central. Bulls batsman Josh Crawford top scored with 79.
It was the final regular round in the under-12 to under-14 competition with the minor premierships not decided until the final day in a number of the competitions.
In under-14 Division 2, Easts White confirmed themselves as minor premiers by beating Northern Suburbs, while intra-club rivals Easts Blue lost to Wine Country.
City United dropped the final game of the season to Dungog but had already claimed the under-14 division 2 minor premiership ahead of Western Suburbs.
The under-13 minor premiership was taken out by Easts from Cessnock team Pedens. The top-two rivals will meet Northern Suburbs teams Red and Black in semi-finals on Saturday.
Norths Gold won the under-12 division 1 minor premiership and has the chance to play their club rivals Norths Red in the grand final. Norths Gold play Karuah on one side of the draw and Norths Red meet Thornton on the other in Saturday's semi-finals.
In under-12 division 2, Clarence Town claimed the minor premiership from Gresford who had a remarkable season after not winning a game last season.
In the case of draws, the higher placed team will advance to the grand final.
