The Stones have already made club history by reaching the fifth round of the FA Cup for the first time, beating the likes of Championship promotion chasers Ipswich Town along the way.
Elokobi's men moved a step closer to sealing an immediate return to Step 1 by recording a 2-1 comeback win over Aveley on Wednesday night, thanks to goals from Matt Rush and Muhammadu Faal.
Now they make the trip to Worthing for the play-off semi-final this afternoon, looking to keep their season alive in the 62nd match of a memorable campaign.
But despite the pressures of a gruelling season, Elokobi says his players are desperate to prolong their season further by securing victory at the Sussex Transport Community Stadium.
