As in the previous year, ACS (Independent) and ACS (Barker Road) met in the gold-medal playoff for B boys at the National Inter-School Water polo Competition 2007.

It was a closely-fought match. The teams tied 5-5 at the end of regulation time.

Two overtime periods, of three minutes each, saw ACS (BR)'s vice-captian, Rahul Shankar Pandey scoring two goals, one during each overtime period. ACS (BR) regained the B title it last won in 2002 with a score of 7-5.
ACS (I) knew the title was within reach. However, there were opportunites that were not taken up during the match. Coach, Mr Lau Kum Weng told the team: "You cannot change the score.... but you can learn from the defeat and come back stronger next time."
