SEDGLEY had a good start, almost getting a try within the first two minutes of the game, but unfortunately that was as good as it got.

Winnington quickly got into their stride and pushed Park back into their own territory and kept them there for the remainder of the first half.

Some excellent ball distribution from Ben Crossley, plus great runs from Todd Keers and Johnny McGahan kept Sedgley's hopes alive, but Winnington were too well drilled in defence to allow the Park break through.

Sedgley trailed 0-19 at half-time.

The second half saw Sedgley fight their way back into the game, and whilst they spent longer in Winnington's half, the visitors exploited weaknesses in the defence to run through three more tries.

Some formidable tackling by Josh Horner, Johnny McGahan and new boy Nick Abbot kept the visitors from getting too comfortable.

Great drives by Alex French and Josh Horner eventually forced the visitors back to their line, where Lewis Philips assisted by Reece Byrne forced the ball to ground to give Park their only try of the game.
