Tuesday evening's 56-42 win over Resolution IT Green was Blaze's 16th success in 17 games this campaign to secure the championship with three games to spare.
A 36-36 draw with Nerine Thunder A was the only slip-up for a side who, with the exception of experienced island captain Copperwaite, have an average age of just 19.
'I am immensely proud of the girls because they have grown as a team together this season, their attitude has been superb and they have all played their part,' said Copperwaite.
