Malton & Norton U13s exited the Yorkshire Cup after a 41-0 home defeat by Castleford.

Malt played well but Castleford took the lead midway through the first half after some great passing along the backs to split the Malton defence.

The hosts thought they were on level terms just before half-time when James Boyes picked the ball up after a kick over the Castleford defence, but he was deemed to have been in an offside position.

In the second half, Malton were caught out on numerous occasions by Castleford’s counter-attacking play and the visitors ran in five tries.

Malton continued to play skilful rugby with Ben Edwards, Josh Britton and Oliver Kelsey all making good runs.
