Jumping Jack Flash For Leaders

Jack McMinn ploughed in as many as seventeen three figure visits during a 10-1 Steve Chapman 501 League win over Cherry Tree D for Fawn B.

McMinn was helped during the win by John Mann, who ended his night on twelve tons overall, whilst Simon Washington nailed ten tons during the match to play a more than admirable support role to the two main men.

Despite the scoreline being so clearly one sided, only one of the four maximums were plundered by the victors as Lee Agar fired a solitary effort that sat nicely alongside a game high checkout of 142.

Lee Wickett, Chris Harper, and Cameron O'Brien all fired 180s for the defeated team, and O'Brien did so on his way to top scoring for the visitors with eleven tons.

Wickett was a ten ton hitter, as was Kevin Lofthouse, for the team that showed unrewarded fight in the scoring phase of play.

In the 601 doubles phase, Mann and Agar (40.07) blasted through their legs in 14 and 16 darts, which blew away an 18 darter over the same distance by Wickett and his teammate Steve Towl.

McMinn produced a 501 leg in 17 darts twice during a 3-2 success before Sean Taylor bagged himself a 16 dart leg during a 3-1 triumph.

Agar went one better with a 15 darter during another 3-1 triumph before Washington fell to O'Brien despite a 16 dart leg of his own.

Kevin Evans fired thirteen tons and Andy Waters followed this with eleven more, but the pair still ended on the wrong side of a 7-4 loss as Tradesmans were downed by Victory Fireballs.

Both Evans and Waters joined teammate Rob May in achieving a 180 during the contest, whilst Evans also featured amongst the players to receive praise from their exploits at the finishing stages.

Evans' 109 combination outshot was the best finish of the match, whilst Chris Beale's 17 darter came in a 3-1 defeat against Waters.

Tex Pearce added twelve tons to ten more from teammate Mike Pearce in a 6-5 triumph for St Levans over Indian Inn.

Tex produced a 3-0 triumph in the final singles rubber that helped his team recover from deficits of 2-1 and 5-3 going into the last three games.

Amongst the highlights for the visitors, Louis Yates and Jack Bottrill put together a 601 leg in 20 darts in the doubles, whilst Ian Heggie's 96 kill was the best of all thirty outshots produced in the game.

A dozen three figure visits from Alec Turner couldn't arrest Kings Arms' slide to an 8-3 loss at Stonehouse-based Octagon.

Teammate Paul Palmer was almost as equally impressive in the scoring phase of the defeat with eleven ton plusses, whilst Dave Johns matched that feat.

Both Jayden Dodd and Alfie Ford did the damage for the victors with ten tons each, and there was as many as four maximums in the contest between the two talented outfits.

Ford joined teammates Steve Daley and Chris Edgecombe as 180 hitters for the home team whilst Turner's ton tally was topped up by his team's only three figure effort.

At the business end of legs, Johns joined partner Mark Yeoman in hitting a 601 leg in 21 darts, and the best in the individuals came from the arm of Ford during a 3-1 triumph in just 16 darts.

Eleven tons from Tony Tasker and ten more by Paul Goundry came in a 6-5 home loss for Victory A versus Bar Mez with Goundry netting the only 180 of the tie.

A Cherry Tree B 10-1 win was sparked into life by Tom James, who was an eleven ton hitter for the away side at The Exchange.

Phil Hoyle's ten three figure visit to the board haul included one of three maximums that were claimed in the matchup.

Scott Wapshott added a second for the victors, whilst Rikki Eastley added a solitary three treble visit for the defeated team and also showed his class in the finishing stages of the legs.

Eastley's 3-2 loss in the individual phase saw a 15 dart leg and a 105 three dart combination outshot to give him the two chalk marks he earned.

King Billy relied on the form of Andrew Cook and Scott Cook, who collected eleven and ten tons respectively in a 9-2 win at Cherry Tree A.

Scott Cook's double figure haul was accentuated by a 114 checkout that was only bettered by a 127 by Dan Brazier for the defeated team.

The individual phase was lit up from the first 'game on' call, as Scott Cook nailed legs in 17 and 18 darts on his way to a 3-1 triumph.

Andrew Cook continued the fireworks with 17 and 18 darters of his own during a 3-0 victory before Lewis Byrne fired the second 180 of the contest in another 3-0 success.

Brandon Hartley had earlier nestled the first maxi in the doubles phase before adding two more during a 3-0 success, which made it a quartet of 180s, including Byrne's contribution to that particular stat.

Ten tons from Mark Bell led Beacon Park to a 9-2 win over Duchy in a match that saw no fewer than three maximums.

Tom Baker, Ryan Stone, and Beau Carter all struck three treble visits whilst checkouts of 86 and 83 from Carter bettered an 82 from teammate Jason Smout.

Ten ton plusses by Lee Hellings and 180s and 18 dart legs from Nick Miller and Nick Bryant were the main highlights of a 10-1 win for Cherry Tree C versus Fawn A.

Miller and Bryant were 3-1 and 3-0 winners, respectively, thanks to those aforementioned heroics, whilst the only moment of magic for the defeated team came from a 90 checkout by Bill Scannell.

Kieran Harris' 71 single visit checkout was only bettered by a 119 from Ryan Harris during an 8-3 triumph for Victory Hammers at Firkin Scholar.

A 3-2 singles success for Rhys Castle was lit up by the only three treble visit of the matchup, which was one of two the home side notched in the individual phase.
