Week 5 round up

Another superb week of darts for me to round up for you, and this week we will start in division one.

The Hairy Bull are top of the table, they beat the Hairy Crown 9-0 so they are top on leg difference over the Diamond. The match this week had a 180 from Papa G and a 136 checkout from the big man Dave Heath.

A cracking game of darts was had between the Whitfield Cups and the Diamond, the Diamond never lead the game until the final game of the match which was won by Paul Martin. Russ Herbert of the Cups hit a 180 in a match that as well.

The old endeavour went 180 mad in their match against the three Cups, they were hit by John Hughes, Mark Culley, Ray Bourne and Mike Matthews. They Old E ran out 8-1 winners.

The Bull A won 72 against the DWMC Maddogs, Ash Battie hit a 180 and Gary Mills checked out on a nice 155.

Garys 155 was beaten on the night by Lee Humphries of the Admiral Cups, he hit a 158 , his side did however lose 6-3 against the Phoenix PD. This match also included a 180 from Martin McNeill and a 113 checkout from Steve Roberts.

In division two the DSAA A are still unbeaten. They beat Tilmanstone 7-2 this week and are now two points clear of their closest rivals the Boars Head A.

The Boars Head beat the Bull Dogs 6-3, Bradley Bough hit a 180 for the Bull Dogs and Mick Cock checked out on 100 for the Boars Head.

The Diamond C won 6-3 against the Crown A, thats the second win of the season for the Diamond so they now have a couple of points cushion on the bottom three sides in thee table still on one win.

Endeavour Spartans had a last leg of the match win against the Crown B, Mike O’Callaghan with the winning game and Callum Hilton checked out on 102.

last but not least the Real Diamonds were the biggest winners in division two, they beat the Dewdrop 8-1. Steve Habbershaw hit a 180 for the Diamonds.

It was good night all round for the Diamond, all their sides won on the night, the Northern Diamonds picked up their first of the season beating the DSAA Misfits 7-2.

That means there are just two sides in division three looking for a win, the Golden Eagle and the Eagle C. This week the Eagle C lost 6-3 against the Red Lion and the Golden Eagle lost by the same margin against the Phoenix C.

The Red Lion are joint top of the table with the Eagle A, both are unbeaten and this week the Eagle A won 5-1 against the Sportsman. Or as posted on facebook, 8-Scottie Rushton.

The final fame of division three was a 6-3 win for the DSAA Hope 6-3, if anybody knows the team well can you please ask them to make sure the result card is also added to facebook. I am sure someone in the pub will do it for them if they are struggling, which I think they are.

Over the next week I will add some polls to the facebook page for a couple of competition ideas for us to look at as we now have a shorter league format.

I am also looking at potential dates for an pre AGM meeting so that we can look at changing our constitution on voting in new rules. It currently states that rules must be voted in an AGM, but this does in the modern day seem slightly outdated. However, we will have to have a small meeting to agree that change so we can do some form of electronic voting mechanism.
