Challenge Cup second and third round draws clearer as latest results confirmed

Challenge Cup trophy

Twelve amateur teams booked their spot in the second round of the Challenge Cup this afternoon.

West Hull were the biggest winners of the day as they racked up 90 points in their win over Edinburgh Eagles at Johnny Whiteley Park, while Waterhead Warriors pulled off a dramatic golden point 12-8 victory over Leigh Miners Rangers.

Hunslet ARLFC were made to dig deep to see off Stanley Rangers 34-20, while Mirfield were just pipped 26-20 on home soil by the Royal Navy. The Army moved a step closer to that third round tie with Leeds Rhinos as they saw off the RAF in a battle of the armed forces, too.

Elsewhere, Dewsbury Moor beat Haresfinch 20-12, Rochdale Mirfield saw off Telford Raiders 64-16 and Crosfields thumped Maryport 52-0. There were also wins for West Bowling, Ince Rose Bridge and Oulton Raiders, with those progressing having some huge, money spinning games down the line to look forward to.

The first round hasn’t been completed just yet, with two games still to be played on Sunday, but Saturday’s results make the second and third round draws a lot clearer.

With that in mind, here’s a look at the first round results that have been confirmed so far and the updated draws as Super League clubs wait to learn their fate.
