The sides were locked at two goals apiece - Karl Fillingham (2) for Celtic and Darren Donald and David Dustin netting for Whitehaven - but a crucial penalty save from Celtic's Brian Miller from Mally Holliday in the shoot-out gave Celtic the cup.
It was a double blow for Whitehaven, who missed out on promotion to the Northern League earlier in the week by virtue of a victory by rivals Jarrow.
