The men's team, made up of Evan Walshe, Jamell Anderson, Dwayne Lautier-Ogunleye and Ashley Hamilton got the better of New Zealand in the semi-final to reach the final against an Australia side out for revenge after their 2022 defeat.
It was a tight and closely-fought contest throughout with neither side more than three points ahead until the closing stages when Anderson, who was part of the 2022 gold medal-winning team, and Lautier-Ogunleye pushed England into an 18-14 lead that proved too much for Australia to pull back.
