Corinthians Ladies completed a hugely impressive domestic treble on Sunday when they beat rivals Douglas Royal 3-1 at the Bowl to win the Manx FA Cup.

Manager Jason Corkill told BBC Isle of Man: "The girls have given 100% in every game and to win all three trophies is absolutely brilliant.

"We've developed a successful youth policy and the strength in depth has helped this season," he added.

The Whites add the FA Cup to the Division One title and Floodlit Cup.

The prolific Jade Burden gave Corinthians the lead just before half-time, however, Douglas Royal levelled after a Natalie Johnson own goal.

Burden restored Corinthians' lead on 77 minutes with Captain and Player of the Match Sarah O'Reilly scoring their third on the stroke of full-time.

Corinthians become the second team in Manx history to complete the ladies' treble. Douglas Royal completed the same feat in 2009.
