St Pat's first task is travel away to the third-placed Parkes team that has managed just two wins all season, with a win by the Bathurst boys to keep the pressure on the ladder leading Lithgow Storm.
St Pat's has enjoyed considerable success against Parkes this season, having scored 15 goals in three games against them this season, conceding just three goals in the process.
The first win was a 3-1 success in round one, followed by a 6-2 victory in round four and a 6-0 win in round seven, the most recent fixture between the two clubs.

Storm has a fairly straight forward match - at least one would assume going off the competition ladder - against the bottom-placed Orange Wanderers at the Lithgow Hockey Centre on Saturday.
However, the Storm was held to a 2-all draw the last time the two teams met back on May 29, a remarkable result from the Orange club, considering Lithgow won 11-0 when the two teams played back in round one.
St Pat's most recent match was against Storm, a 2-all draw in Lithgow before the June long weekend.
St Pat's will take on the Parkes club at 1.30pm on Saturday, at the Parkes Hockey Complex.
