King Cross Park got their first win of the season bouncing back from a tough game last week.

Despite a few last minute shuffles to the team Park were out of the blocks quickly and opened the scoring in the first five minute with a try for Callum Dunne after good approach worh from Gareth Schofield and Brad Ratcliffe. Missed conversion.

Park were pressing again when a loose pass was picky up by Ricky Williams who raced 60 meters to level the scores and Anthony Yates improved to give Ackworth a 6-4 lead.

The forwards continued to battle each other for the next ten minutes but on then fantastic hands from Brad Ratcliffe, Jack White and Liam Stead saw Matt Brown score, conversion missed but Park were in front again. Park pushed on and after 35 minutes scored again this time good approach work by Luke Brown gave Lee Gleeson, Jack White and Matt Brown the chance to put Adam Milne in for a try and this time Dunne converted to make it 14-6 at half time.

Park started the second half playing up the slope and when Ackworth scored and goaled after only three minutes of the half you could be forgiven for thinking that this could be a tough one to keep hold of but Park were having none of it and on 50 minutes a neat chip by Jack White was re-gathered and moved to Nathan Raynor to finish and Radcliffe converted the try to push the lead out to 8 points.

With ten minutes remaining Matt Brown broke free and looked to have taken a wrong decision when he was tackled having had Adam Milne on his outside and choosing not to pass but from the play the ball quick thinking saw Dunne feed Radcliffe and he shot over to extend the lead further Dunne converting again.

Park were now in control and with three minutes remaining Dunne got his second try and converted to make the final score 32-12
