Other teams from up north to do well were the Northland W50+, Northland Blue W60+ and Lower Northland M65-70+.
The Northland 50+ women's team were runners-up in the highly competitive W50-55+ competition.
Northland went through the competition unbeaten with eight wins and a draw against Waikato 50+.
That draw proved to be the difference between first and second as Waikato won because of a slightly better sets and matches record.
Waikato had a 96-12 match and 31-5 set run, slightly outdoing Northland's 94-14 and 30-6.
The Northland unit was made up of Sheryl Duffy-York, Ursula Hinck, Francie James, Wendy Sykes and Margaret Waller.
Other Northland-based teams in the competition were Lower Northland (fourth) and Northland 55+ (eighth).
Other competitive draws were the W60-65+ and M65-70+, with Northland sides doing well in each.
Lower Northland 70+ battled hard in the men's division, finishing second after six wins.
Lower Northland went to a showdown with Canterbury to decide the winner in the penultimate match of the tournament after five straight victories.
Canterbury proved too good for the Northlanders which meant Lower Northland had to settle for second.
Lower Northland 65+ ended up fourth in the same division while Northland 70+ were sixth.
In the W60-65+ division, Northland Blue showed they were a force but were not quite able to take top spot either, ending second.
Northland beat everyone on their way to the final match, where they faced Rotorua/Taupo/Eastern Bay of Plenty.
The visitors proved too hot to handle for the Northland side as they cruised to the title.
