As a result, Otley's head coach Kyle Dench was pleased with his side's work, saying that Tynedale were the better team in the first half, but that his side came out for the second to play a much better game.
Otley had the early territorial advantage, but their first try started deep in their 22.
Sam Taylor ran onto man-of-the-match Jacob Holmes's kick, taking the ball into Tynedale's half, before giving it back to Jacob Holmes who went onto score after nine minutes. with Gavin Stead adding the conversion.

Stead slotted his fourth conversion.
He then increased Otley's lead after 59 minutes just inside Tynedale's half after the visitors failed to release.
But Tynedale's powerful scrum saw Otley go down to 14 after four scrums, and then to 13 when a winger was taken out in the act of scoring, which resulted in a penalty try.
From another scrum, Tynedale, on their 10 metre line, ran the lines until No 8 Ben Bell crashed over.
Tynedale's final try came with a minute remaining after their initial attack in the corner was halted.
The visitors then moved infield, with replacement Ben Haigh going over, which another replacement, Jake Rodgers, converted.
Tynedale head coach Woods Ben acknowledged it was a tight game, with Otley's back line their undoing.
He thought they should have scored at the end of the first half, and they left themselves too much to do playing for the two points rather than the win.
