It was won by Scotland after a close contest between Scotland, Wales and England. England began the tournament the stronger team, with a 3–1 win over Ireland in Belfast while Scotland struggled to a 1–1 draw with Wales. Scotland recovered to beat Ireland in their second match whilst England dropped position after defeat by Wales. Wales and Ireland played a tough, high-scoring game which might have given Wales the title, but was ultimately won by the Irish, whilst Scotland came to London knowing that only a win would be enough to give them the trophy. In a furious attacking game the result; 1–1, was enough to give Scotland an undisputed tournament success. This was the first edition of the tournament in which a trophy was awarded to the winners.Western Daily Press Jubilee Trophy for Scotland 1936-04-06 4 Table main WDL n 2 SCO SCO ENG ENG WAL WAL 1807 IRE IRE 1 2 0 4 3 C 1 1 1 5 4 1 1 1 5 5 1 0 2 5 7 #ccffcc C complete 1) points.
