First title for western women
Peel have secured their first ever women’s league title.
Maxine Smalley’s strike just before half-time was enough to earn a 1-1 draw against Douglas Royal at Ballafletcher and, with it, the Regency Travel Championship.
It completes a double for the westerners who clinched the FA Cup a fortnight ago.
The match was a tense affair with so much at stake.
Royal took an early lead through Donna Shimmin before Smalley struck the all-important leveller.
Elsewhere, deposed champions Corinthians defeated Old Boys 4-1.
Two goals from Jade Burden and one apiece from Lisa Costain and Shannon Groves ensured Amy Beggs-Cairney’s reply was a consolation.
Gymns defeated Douglas Athletic 2-0.
