Bonagee United were presented with the Donegal Women’s League crown on Monday evening.
The Dry Arch side has retained the title, securing the club’s first back-to-back success, following an emphatic 8-0 win over Letterkenny Rovers.
Caoimhne Heron’s hat-trick spurred Bonagee to a big derby victory with Eimear Sweeney (2), Deborah Kerrigan, Bronagh Gallagher and Catherine Grier also on target.
The title was already secured a week early with Bonagee defeating Drumbar United 5-1 at the same time as Rovers lost 2-0 to Raphoe Town.
