Avenue United added to their winnings for the season when they secured the youths league title with a comprehensive win over Bridge United at Doora on Monday evening.
The same sides return to the same venue on this Friday for the cup final and the Ennis outfit will go into that game wearing the favourites tag and expected to complete the double.
They got off to a tremendous start on Monday and took the lead after two minutes when Eoghan O’Loughlin scored after great work by Sean Corry and Eoin Fitzgerald and this score separated the sides at half time.
Shortly after the resumption of play Corry and O’Loughlin combined again for O’Loughlin to get his second
Their third came from Alan Roche and this score deflated the Bridge challenge. Further goals came from Mark and Alan roche as the Ennis outfit sealed their victory. 
Their winning margin would have been grater but for the play of Bridge United goalie, John Mulready who made a number of good saves.
After the game Clare soccer chairman Paul Tuohy presented the trophy to Avenue’s Conor Mullin who has missed most of the season due to injury and Alan Roche.
