PILKINGTON Recs have been drawn at home to Championship 1 outfit London Skolars in the third round of the Ladbrokes Challenge Cup.

The tie will be played over the weekend of February 27-28 at a venue to be confirmed.

It will be tough, but it is a tie that Recs, who were promoted to the National Conference Premier Division last season, will fancy their chances of progressing in.

And that would open the door to an even more mouthwatering tie in the next round.

Hunslet Hawks v Barrow Raiders.

Oxford v Lock Lane.

Rochdale Mayfield v Rochdale Hornets.

Pilkington Recs v London Skolars.

Kells v Hemel Stags.

West Hull v Doncaster.

York City Knights v York Acorn.

Siddal v Newcastle Thunder.

North Wales Crusaders v Gloucestershire All Golds.

Wath Brow v Toulouse Olympique.
