North Canterbury's Woodend School has taken out the South Island Milo Shield final with a comfortable win over Dunedin's Balmacewen Intermediate.

The final, played at Logan Park in Dunedin, was forced into a replay after the first match between the two was tied.

Woodend applied the pressure second time around, cruising past Balmacewen's 117 all out (in 19 overs) by the 22nd over.

Woodend will now contest the national final in Palmerston North in December.
