Boro controlled the game well and on 32 minutes Finlay Hopper scored after some great work down the right from Harry Southwick. Hopper scored again before half-time with a solo effort.

Two minutes into the second half Rawcliffe scored.

The momentum seemed to shift towards a very physical Rawcliffe side and they pulled a further two goals back in quick succession to bring the game to 4-3 and Scarborough on the ropes.

However a fantastic counter-attack, in which Owers played in Greening who sprinted the full length of the pitch, rounded the keeper and slotted into the net for a 5-3 win.

Everyone would like to say a huge thank-you to Yorkshire Care Group for their amazing support and sponsorship this season.

Scalby Under-14s surged to a 7-0 win at Norton College against Old Malton in the North Riding Junior Cup.

Kaleb Nebiat diverted in a cross to give Scalby a deserved lead after 10 minutes.

Scalby would soon double their lead as Mollica grabbed his second assist in a space of a couple of minutes as James Draper received his lay-off just outside the box, then hit a curling 20-yard shot past an outstretched keeper.

Mollica then smashed in the third goal of the day from close range, following a Tyler Cross corner.

Laurie Davenport scored a brilliant solo goal by jinking past a couple of players then an accurate finish into the bottom corner to see Scalby safely progress to the next round of the cup.
