KXP were beaten by more organised and probably slightly fiter team.

Making only their second appearance in two years Park fielded on paper what looked like a good team with several former first teamers in their ranks.

Park competed well for most of the game but a couple of lapses in defence coupled with some great off loads in the tackle eventually cost Park the game.

Probably the most memorable moment was when centre Martin Hardcastle made a clean break and looked a certainty to score only for the try line to seem to move further and further away the more he tried to run and he was evnetually caught just a yard short of the line.

A return fixture is planned for 1st July at ours.

Team: Tony Pilkington, Jonny Smith, Martin Hardcastle, Andy Binns, ANO, Lee Brook, Justin Lumb, Malc Stockings, Kev Mitchell, Mark Illingworth, Andy Smith, Colin Millns and Simon Lumb.
