Ramsey A ended the brave challenge of Valkyrs B to book their place in the Men’s Cup Final on Saturday.

They fought back from 2-0 down to draw 3-3 before winning 2-1 on penalty flicks.

And the northerners will take extra satisfaction from their fightback as they played the full match with just eight players.

Dan Stevenson grabbed a double and Barry Mellor the other before Ramsey won the shoot-out.

In the Men's Plate, a Danny Shuttleworth hat-trick helped Bacchas defeat Valkyrs C 5-1.

Peter Vernon-Browne and Connor Leece netted the others.

In men’s Division One, there was an end-of-season bright spot for Valkyrs A as they defeated the champions and arch rivals, a slightly under-strength Bacchas A, 1-0.

The sides will meet again in Wednesday's Men's Cup semi-final.

Donna Harrison was the star of the show in women’s Division One with all five goals, as Bacchas A finished the season on a high with a 5-1 thrashing of Harlequins, whose reply came from Alison Hurd.

It meant Bacchas finished just a point behind the champions, Vikings A, as they went down 3-1 to Ramsey A.

Jan Carney was the Vikings scorer.

Katie Tinkler was the hero with a hat-trick as Castletown A fought back from 3-1 down to draw 3-3 with Valkyrs A.

Ashley Hall and Emma Faulkner (two) were the Valkyrs A scorers.

In the other game, Phoenix A defeated Valkyrs B 7-0 with Tracey Lyness (two), Chloe Talavera, Sally Walker, Jane Ryder and Hannah Biggerstaff on target.
