Burtonwood 12, Ormskirk 10

THE Wooders never looked back after making a flying start. Straight from the kick-off they turned over possession and sent the ball along the backs for Tickle to cross for the opening try. Paladino converted.

Ormskirk fought back and took the ball to Wood's 25. However, Burtonwood recovered and drove backto the halfway line and Tickle broke for his second try. Ormskirk replied with a try before the break. Man-of-the-match Swift, A. Fishwick and Samuels threatened after the break, but the only further score was an Ormskirk try.
