GURU Nanak Reserves completed their treble by lifting the Presidents Cup with a 2-0 victory against Premier Division outfit Ace of Clubs.
Having already won the Division One title and the League Cup A, Guru Nanak's second string went into this clash against higher league opponents full of confidence.
A goal from Hardev Dale gave them an interval advantage, but Ace were dealt some bad luck after the break when Joe Owen sustained a suspected broken ankle.
After a 17 minute delay, the injured player was transported to hospital.
The game finally resumed and the outcome was put beyond doubt when Armadip Singh sealed the win with three minutes remaining.
Referee Lee Culpeck and his officials brought an end a fine sporting game which really deserved more goals.
