A Hoggarth and Sons Eskvale and Cleveland League

Jason Sollet scored a hat-trick for the Huntsman but still finished on the losing side in the semi-finals of the Eileen Hodgson Bowl, beaten 4-3 by Lealholm.

Pete Thomson and Andy Raw netted for Lealholm in the first-half, giving them a 2-1 interval lead.

Lealholm man of the match Rob Whitwell put them further in front with a gloriously struck free-kick.

Huntsman then came back into the game, and coupled with Lealholm having to change their goalkeeper, drew level as Sollet struck with a free-kick and a header.

Huntsman looked the better side and fancied to win the game but Lealholm booked their final place when a ball across the penalty area gave Phil Brown the easiest of tap-ins.

Loftus made it through to the final - but it was an event tighter game. They were locked at 1-1 with Goldsborough after 90 minutes and 2-2 at the end of extra time, Loftus edging through 5-4 on spot-kicks.

Keven Deveraux, for Loftus, and Karl Swales for the visitors scored in normal time and the game went into extra time. Again the scores finished level as Gary Padgett's goal for Loftus was cancelled out by a Russell Ingram strike.

The penalty shoot out saw the first nine players all convert their effort, with the tenth penalty from a Goldsborough player coming back off a post.

Redcar Mackinlay Park reached the final of the Whitby Benevolent Trophy with a 2-1 away win over Great Ayton.

Mackinlay Park took a second-minute lead when a defender's clearance rebounded off a teammate and into the net for an own goal.

Mackinlay Park went further ahead ten minutes later and continued to dominate the half. Immediately after the restart the home side had a player dismissed and began to play much better with only ten men. However, they could not make their pressure count as the visitors cleared off their goalline. With five minutes remaining Ayton finally got on the score sheet when they awarded a penalty and Jonathan Grainge netted.

Staithes strolled to a 4-0 victory at Anchor and gained third place with goals from Glenn Smith (2), James Wilson and Lee Gibson.

Boosbeck justifyied their 2-1 home win over Grangetown as they made better use of their chances.

Shane Breckon hit the cross bar for the home side in the first half but it was Grangetown who led at the interval as Ged Cairns headed home at the far post in injury time.

Breckon equalised from the penalty spot midway through the second-half and then Ivan Thomson won the game in the closing minutes when his shot came back off a post and hit the Grangetown goalkeeper to end up in the net.

Victor Hicks put Grosmont in front after 30 minutes with a well-placed header, paving the way for a 2-1 home win over Loftus YC.

Hicks then set up the second goal with a cross which John Libbey forced home despite the efforts of two Loftus defenders.

Loftus came back in the second-half and finally got on the score sheet with ten minutes remaining when Dave Howse netted.

Grosmont hung on in the face of strong Loftus pressure to secure all three points.

The game between Lingdale and Hinderwell was postponed because of an unfit pitch.

Results, Monday: Brotton 1, Lealholm 2; Hinderwell v Loftus YC (postponed, waterlogged pitch), Loftus Athletic 1, Staithes 4.
