Stanley played one of the only two games played over the Easter weekend hosting Gateshead Storm at Lee Moor on Saturday and in this bottom-of-the-table clash Rangers won 20-12 in their first win of this season.

Gateshead took the lead in the ninth minute with a try from David Weetman, improved by Zack Clark. Rangers however hit back with two unconverted tries by Billy Cooper and Craig Williamson. At half time the score remained at 8-6.

The game continued in the balance until the hour when Jordan Walker crossed the whitewash, the try being converted by Craig Williamson. Although Gateshead's James Pocklington added a further try for the visitors which was converted by Zack Clark it wasn't enough and the two points went to Stanley.

Rangers Man of the Match was Joe Binns.

There is no game this weekend so the next match for Stanley Rangers will be on the 14th April, at home to Beverley currently top of the league.
