This second version of the tournament ran for only three years before being cancelled after the 2013 event due to York's unhappiness with the organisation of the event at Hull and their "frustrat[ion] with the spirit and quality of competition". The tournament was replaced for York by the College Varsity competition between the Colleges of the University of York and the Colleges of Durham University, and for Hull by the Humber Games against the University of Lincoln.
