CITY of York Hockey Club Men I secured at least a sixth-placed finish in the North League premier division with a 4-2 win over Oxton.

With this win - City's seventh at home in their last eight fixtures - York are guaranteed a tally of 31 points, their highest in the premier division this century.

And they will be hoping they can maintain this home form this Saturday when they host Wakefield, when a win - with other results going their way - could see them rise to fifth.

Mike Carter scored a hat-trick and Alex Cockram added.
