TWO teams lost for the first time in the Porters Function Room 501 Top 20 League, leaving three with an unbeaten record, just four weeks into a new campaign. The top two sides both won in double figures but it’s Porters Patriots, after an 11-0 whitewash of Cherry Tree, that boast a four-point lead over the chasing pack. They hit no fewer than 62 scores of a ton or more in their demolition of the Pennycross outfit and had five players hitting more than 10 tons each. Maritime M

Another young darts player emerges at 15

PLYMOUTH seems to have a rich abundance of emerging youth players as another 15-year-old comes to the fore. Following in the footsteps of his Devon county youth team-mate Keelan Kay, Jordan Grimshaw caught the eye in the Monday Premier League when he achieved the week’s highest checkout. In winning his singles 3-2, which enabled City Social to edge out Brookside B 6-5, Grimshaw finished at the first time of asking from 156, a mark that was not bettered. TOP CHECKOUT: Jordan G

Mann so close to another perfect game

FIFTEEN months after becoming the first Plymouth player to hit the perfect nine-dart game, John Mann came so close to repeating the feat, but in the end had to settle for a win in 10. Playing for Porters A in the Monday Premier League, Mann hit eight perfect darts before wiring double 12. TOP MAN(N): John Mann came very close to achieving another perfect game but had to settle for a win in 10. A tongue-in-cheek moment followed when his opponent, John Cook, then stepped up to

Maritime A remain unbeaten . . . just!

THE 13th fixture of the season came close to being very unlucky for unbeaten Monday Premier League leaders Maritime A, but they rallied to come from behind and continue their winning ways. The Keyham side went 2-0 down away at Steam Packet B but with the scoreline evenly poised at 5-5, Dan Scott emerged a 3-0 winner against Quinton Taylor for a win by the narrowest of margins.
