Bombay Scottish skipper Azim Hakeem did well to capitalise on a rebound off Campion goalkeeper Ayaansh Sharma to tap in the first goal and give his team a 1-0 lead as they headed into lemon time.
After the change of ends, Bombay Scottish doubled their lead when Yohan John provided a perfect pass for Ethan Taites to slot home the second goal and seal the fate of the encounter. Campion School had their fair share of goal-scoring opportunities, but Scottish goalkeeper Adam Carvalho proved difficult to beat under the bar.
Earlier, St Anne's High School (Orlem) blanked Jamnabai Narsee School (Juhu) 3-0 in the third-place match. The hero for St Anne's was Safwan Duduka, who scored a fine brace after Brave Koli scored the opening goal of the match.
