Hell Raiser

Lee Hellings (27.83) bagged a brace of 17 darters on his way to a 3-0 singles success that came in a 9-2 win for Cherry Tree A at Fawn A in the Plymouth City Super League Division A.

Andy Bates (27.33) was also in good nick with a 15 dart leg, his best, whilst Hellings top scored with fourteen scores of a ton or more.

One of those was a 180 as Bates added a solitary effort to two more from Fred Goldsmith, who ended on eleven three figure visits for his night's work.

Neil White also chipped in with ten tons for the victors, whilst Dave Roberts and Mike Nancholas both led the scoring for the defeated team with eleven tons each.

Both Roberts and Nancholas added big checkouts to their hauls as Roberts' 101 and a 144 from Nancholas had Bates' 136 sandwiched in the middle of it.

Lee Rodmell fired seventeen scores of a ton or more to give Ford Inn the platform to secure a 7-4 win over Cherry Tree C.

Dan Brazier's sixteen scores of a ton or more provided excellent cover fire for the rampant Rodmell, whilst Scott Wapshott ended his night on ten tons for the victors.

Part of Wapshott's efforts included a 152 checkout, which gave him the best finish of the contest and pushed teammate Mark Shears' 137 into second place.

Darren Smith bagged a 106 that was the best effort from the visitors, whilst most of the flames for the away team came from a fourteen ton tally from Nathan Langdon, with Cameron O'Brien reaching twelve.

Langdon's teammate Dave Hollow put up a second maximum for their team, whilst Shears was the only member of the victorious home cohort to hear a '180' called after throwing.

Fifteen tons rained down from the arm of Andy Malinowski, which provided the firepower for Legends Lounge B to claim a 6-5 win over league leaders Falstaff.

Malinowski added a 136 combination outshot to his night's work, whilst Darren Collis' 108 ticked his own ton total over to the ten mark.

In a topsy-turvy contest that saw the lead change hands no fewer than six times, Malinowski's 3-2 last leg deciding win was a fitting end to a closely fought matchup.

Ralph Lancaster shone brightly for the Ker St A with a thirteen ton haul that gave his team the platform to take a 6-5 success against Firkin Scholar.

Teammate Paul Tackle added a brace of maximums, with a third in the contest fired by Stephen Ebsworth for the defeated team.

Archie Borlase led the charge for the away side with ten three figure visits, whilst checkouts of 118 from Ebsworth and a 116 by Rhys Castle provided the best two finishes of the night.

Raffles A's 9-2 win at Steampacket saw all three of Lewis Dare, Adam Truscott, and Tyler Borthwick end their night on eleven ton plusses.

Dare and Truscott added a brace each of maximums to their own tallies, with further 180s being hit by Alex Truscott, as well as Nick Miller for the opposition.

Miller's teammate, George Beckett, was a 3-0 winner in the individual phase with a 112, providing one of the hat-trick of legs he won.

The trio of Dale Halford, Glenn Halford, and James Stoodley all reached ten tons apiece to dominate the Bluebird derby, which was won by their A team versus the Bluebird B by a 9-2 scoreline.

Glenn Halford also added a 99 checkout to his night's work, which was the only effort to better an 80 kill from Nige Bassett for the defeated party.

Tony Reid dominated proceedings for Raffles B with a ten ton total that helped his team to an 8-3 success over Kings Arms B.

Reid netted one of the two maximums in that total as teammate Leighton Wilson added a three treble visit of his own.

At the business end, Reid also shone with an 83 checkout that was somewhat overshadowed by a 160 kill from Mike Tucker.

Reid's stablemate, Danny Bull, also showed moments of magic at the back end of legs with 16 and 17 darters that helped him to a 3-0 success.

Four 180s adorned Legends Lounge A's 6-5 loss at Tradesmans as Reece Mealin, Ryan Harris, Robbie Aitken, and Sean Burkitt all fired.

Simon Washington added a 110 kill to his 15 darter for the victors, which was matched by Liam Taylor in his 3-1 loss.

Nick Bryant plundered a 15 dart leg and a 155 checkout in a 9-2 win for Cherry Tree D over Duchy A, which also saw Keith Carter nail the only maximum.
