Lifford proved too strong for Shannon Town in the U-16 final on Saturday.
Lauren Keane scored a hat-trick for the Ennis side while Gráinne Nolan accounted for the other two goals in a game that the Ennis side dominated.
Team captain Nolan scored a brace in the opening half while Keane’s hat-trick came in the second period. Lifford centre-half Laura Browne was named as the player of the game.
The final scoreline is a little unfair to Shannon Town, who played some good football, particularly from their captain, Danah King.
After the game, Clare Schoolboys/girls League chairman Tommy Molloy presented the cup to the winning captain, Gráinne Nolan and he also presented the player-of-the-match trophy to Laura Browne.
Lifford: Áine Nash; Orlaith O’Reilly Jenny McCready, Sara Cullinan, Laura Browne; Laureen Keane, Gráinne Nolan, Alanna Blake, Niamh O’Brien, Rebecca Boylan, Saibh Malone.
Sub: Becky Blake for Saibh Malone.
Shannon Town: Emma Ryan; Rachel Lynch, Amy McCormack, Tara Boland, Toni O’Brien, Amanda Madden, Zoe McInerney, Clodagh O’Halloran, Danya King, Ellen McTague, Gráinne Kelly.
Subs: Moya Syncerz, Tasha Griffin, Courtney Burke.
