The victory means the side holds an insurmountable six point lead over Yoogali SC with one round remaining before finals.
Yoogali FC coach Ross Marando was pleased the side was able to secure the minor premiership.
"The boys set that goal at the start of the year as it had been eight or nine years since we've done it," he said.
Yoogali had their depth tested in the clash with West Griffith, with Marando praising the reserves who stepped into the first team.
"We've had a few young kids coming up into the team," he said.
"Every time they have had to step up they have performed."
