Wins for University of Exeter and Surbiton set up a monumental final day in the Men's Premier Division, when relegation and Europe will be decided. 

On Sunday, the students roared back from 3-1 down to beat Beeston 4-3, sealed by Seb Ansley's strike on the final play of the game. 

Beeston opened the scoring through Sam Apoola on four minutes which was cancelled out by Ansley, but the visitors surged two goals in front thanks to Brendon Andrews on 28 minutes and then Eddie Harper.

Charles Taylor and Rhys Bradshaw hauled the hosts level before Ansley's late show secured the spoils.

Exeter's third win of the season saw them climb off the foot of the table and a point above Durham University with a game to play on 23 April.

In the Top 6, Surbiton outclassed Wimbledon 5-1 with a dominant display that leaves them two points shy of second place, with a game still to play. 

Wimbledon have won twice at Surbiton in the last five years but they didn't look like repeating the trick as James Gall doubled the lead at the end of the first quarter.

The visitors pulled a goal back through Ed Horler five minutes later but Alex Williams and Sam Spencer scored either side of half-time to pull Surbiton clear. Alex Williams made the scoreline even more emphatic with a fifth late on.

Surbiton, who sat fourth at Christmas, have to beat Hampstead & Westminster and hope Wimbledon falter against champions Old Georgians on April 23, shaping up to be a mouthwatering final day of the season. 

Hampstead & Westminster arrested their recent slide with a thumping 6-0 win over East Grinstead. 

After an even first quarter, James Oates broke the deadlock and it was three by half-time with Will Calnan and Matthew Ramshaw on target. 

Three penalty corner goals were added after the break, with South African drag flick specialist Matt Guise-Brown helping himself to two and Rupert Shipperley another.

On Sunday in the Top 6, champions Old Georgians hit top form as Holcombe were dispatched 6-2. 

Chris Proctor, James Carson and Tom Carson put Georgians 3-0 up with goals inside five minutes, but Jake Owen and Nick Bandurak got Holcombe back to within a goal.

England and Great Britain stars Sam Ward restored a two-goal advantage before half-time before Tom Carson and Chris Griffiths made sure with second-half strikes.

Meanwhile in Saturday's lone Bottom 5 match, Brooklands Manchester University outgunned in-form Oxted to triumph in a nine-goal thriller.

Oxted have set the pace in Phase 2 with four wins in their last six matches but they went behind early on when Richard Slater scored. They recovered to leap into a 3-1 lead thanks to goals from Owen Williamson, Chris Webster and Joe Cotton either side of half-time.

Brooklands battled back as Peter Flanagan and Aidan Khares both struck inside eight minutes to draw level. 

Oxted pulled away again through Pete Friend but two penalty corner efforts in the dying seconds, courtesy of Mike Wood and Flanagan, earned Brooklands a seventh win of the season.
