​Edgehill, who have won the competition for the past two seasons, marched to a 6-0 home success against York Football League side Dringhouses in their quarter-final of North Riding FA Saturday Challenge Cup.

In the first minute Dan Jones had a great chance to give Edgehill the lead but missed his tap-in at the far post. Dringhouses then missed an even better chance, the striker getting the ball stuck under his feet from a yard out.

However, Edgehill soon got going and Joe Gallagher scored a quickfire double, the striker took his goals with great aplomb.
