The eight teams were drawn into two pools for the group stages, during which each team played three shorter length, seven-a-side games.
The two top teams from the two groups progressed to the semi-finals. Lightning beat NIC Leeds Rhinos 13-9 in the first semi-final, while Pulse defeated LexisNexis Dragons 18-16.
The one-goal victory in the final secures the Soft & Gentle Netball Super Cup for Lightning’s trophy cabinet.
