The match of the day in the Men's Premiership was undoubtedly the meeting between Beeston and East Grinstead at Highfields. East Grinstead took an early lead through a Dave De Prez goal in the second minute and when the break arrived Grinstead were 2-1 ahead. Come the final whistle East Grinstead would have taken the points had it not been for 70th minute penalty stroke award converted by Chris Seddon. Final score 4-4.
Reading also came back from behind to draw their match away at Bowdon. Trailing at 2-0 with four minutes left, Richard Mantell scored from a penalty corner, followed a minute later by a field goal from Andy Watts. The draw means that Surbiton, who beat Brooklands 4-0 this afternoon, move ahead of Reading to lead the table.
In the West Conference, Bath Buccaneers have increased their lead in the table courtesy of a 7-3 win over University of Birmingham and Whitchurch's 5-4 defeat at Bournville. Buccanneers have not dropped a point all season and there is now a nine point margin between them and second placed Whitchurch.
IN ROUND THREE OF THE WOMEN'S CUP there were a couple of minor giant killing acts. Sutton Coldfield, who are currently leading the North Conference saw off Premier Division Olton & West Warwickshire 3-1, whilst South Club's side Surbiton beat West Conference Buckingham 3-1. Former England international Helen Grant was one of the scorers for Surbiton.
