Gymns have won the Manx Women’s FA Cup for the first time in their history.

Second half goals from Eleanor Gawne, Maria Coulter and Gill Christian clinched the Tromode's side first ever piece of major silverware yesterday (Sunday).

And their 3-0 victory in the Warehouse Fitness competition also ended league champions Douglas Royal’s hopes of a league and cup double.

Elsewhere, in the league, Peel defeated Castletown 3-0 at the Stadium.

Leading 1-0 at the break, Tamsyn Cleavely, Katie Meads and Maxine Smalley netted for the westerners.

Corinthians recorded the biggest win of the day after defeating DHSOB 10-1 at Ballafletcher.

Leading 5-0 at the interval, Lisa Costain (four), Casey Halsall, Alcivarne McGreggor, Hattie Castle, Anna Dillon, Rose Ozga were on target for the Whites, along with an own goal.

The visitors’ consolation came via the boot of Kerry Smallwood.
