Cowling Harlequin 16 Bailiff Bridge 32 - Cowling's Pennine League Division Six debut ended in a disappointing defeat at South Craven School as the visitors ran in seven tries to their four. But it was a promising start for the team who managed to dominate for a great deal of the 80 minutes.

Former Keighley Cougars centre Carlton Farrell made his first appearance for the club and scored one of the tries, others coming from Darren Greenwood, Tom Booker and man of the match Shaun Metcalf.

Cowling are at home again tomorrow when they face Bank Top Harriers at South Craven School (2.30pm).
