Trafford completed their season in style with a 4-0 rout of Clitheroe, Scott Barlow taking his tally to 40 goals with a superb four goal man of the match performance.
The visitors created the first chance after just two minutes when Chris Scott's snapshot was pushed behind by Tom Read.
At the other end, Scott Barlow found himself in space in the inside right position but was denied by a good reflex save by Martin Fearon and then Shaun Whitehead drove the ball across the face of the Clitheroe goal but no-one could apply the finishing touch.
Trafford were now well in control and in the 17th minute Andy Lundy headed a Kayde Coppin cross against the foot of the post. Barlow was equally unfortunate to see his chip rebound into play off the crossbar.
Clitheroe's resistance was finally broken in the 38th minute when a superb long pass by Gareth Thomas released Barlow who held off a challenge by Liam McManus to slip the ball home.
Eight minutes into the second half Barlow struck again when he was fed by substitute Matthew Warburton and drove the ball hard and low into the bottom corner from 15 yards.
And the livewire striker completed his fifth hat-trick of the season on 67 minutes when he bravely challenged keeper Fearon for a high ball and seized on the rebound to coolly fir home from 12 yards.
Clitheroe battled to the end but had no answer to the pace, power and skill of Barlow who drilled a great angled drive past Fearon in the 83rd minute to complete the scoring.
Trafford could have added to their tally with Lundy and Thomas squandering chances and in the dying seconds the visitors giant centre half Ian Flannery glanced a header wide from a great position.
The final whistle signalled a superb victory for Trafford and brought to an end Ged Kieltys' short but tremendously successful reign as manager as he has captured both the Vodkat North West Counties League Championship Trophy and the Unibond League Presidents Cup in a two year period.
