While both sides had their opportunities in an end-to-end first half, it took a cracking shot from Antonio Borelli to break the deadlock in the shadows of halftime.
Barnaby Wood had set up his winger with a slick ball in behind the defence, with Borelli lacing his shot from just inside the 18-yard box.
Olympic had their chances to level the contest, none better than back-to-back free kicks sent dangerously into the box from midfielders Tomas Maru Dester and Arthur Nastou imidway through the second half.
But it was Campbelltown City substitute Luke Spagnotelli who put the result beyond doubt with a sharp left-foot shot in the 88th minute.
Adelaide United Reserves capped their strong season on the fields to win the NPL Reserves grand final 5-1 over Croydon FC.
In the other games on the Football SA NPL and State League grand final day, West Adelaide took down Southern Lions 3-0 in the Under-18 State League 1 decider.
Fotios Kargiotis scored a second-half double off the bench for the Hellas.
In a fitting finish to the Under-18 State League 2 grand final, the Pringle brothers, Tait and Kyton, bookended a huge day of goals for Seaford Rangers.
Striker Daniel Agnew finished with four goals as the Rangers ran away with a 9-3 win over rivals Noarlunga United.
