Stevenson Rockets Champs To Twenty-First Win

Simon Stevenson was bang at it during a 7-4 for win at his old stomping ground, the Clifton, as Plymouth City Super League Division B champions Cornwall Gates claimed the spoils.



Stevenson fired seventeen ton plusses and a 15 dart leg in his 3-1 individual success that also contained a 93 single visit out shot.


Col Maddocks, who is also a former Clifton legend, was equally impressive on familiar territory during an individual phase that contained three expertly taken out shots.



Maddocks 3-2 win contained checkouts of 72, 86 and 112 with one of the two more modest checkouts plundered in a leg that ended in 17 darts.


Ben Welsh might've put thirteen tons onto the scoreboard to go alongside a 17 darter in his 3-2 individual success, but it wasn't enough to arrest Hyde Park's side to a 7-4 away defeat against Victoria.



Aaron Wright led the Plymstock side's charge to the win with ten tons and also claimed a 91 finish that was the best of the contest.


Paul Hoare's twelve ton haul lit up Cherry Tree B's 7-4 win over Kings Arms A whilst two of his teammates showed moments of brilliance in the win.



Alex Truscott was the first with a 145 kill that was not only the best checkout of the match, but also claimed the prize money for the division's top finish of the week.


Kev Doel also sparkled momentarily with the only maximum of a contest that saw seven of the eleven ties decided by a single leg.



A 7-4 win for St Levans over Kings Tamerton saw Mark Hopkins add ten tons whilst checkouts of 100 by Paul Freeman and a 94 from teammate Danny Hoyle were the home side's only moments of magic.


Three maximums were put onto the scoreboard in Ker St's 7-4 win over Fawn B with Ian Heggie and Ralph Lancaster both adding to Mark Sargeant's three treble visit.



Duchy A dominated the Duchy derby against their B side with an 11-0 win that contained an 86 checkout by Ryan Ring as well as a 180 apiece from either side as Adey Veale and Jack Heath both fired.


In Division A, Scott Wapshott's phenomenal sixteen ton plus haul led Legends Lounge to a 10-1 win in their visit to Cherry Tree A.



Wapshott's tally was accented by a 114 checkout that was the best of the match whilst it wasn't a one man mission with two of Wapshott's teammates also on form.


Mark Shears meandered to fourteen tons and Dan Brazier also finished his night on double figures for three figure scores with ten of his own.



Whilst the score line was one sided, the five 180s were split 3-2 to the visitors as Scott Cook added a brace to a solitary maxi by teammate Ant Pearn.


Nick Miller joined Tyler Borthwick in achieving the defeated side's maximums with Borthwick adding eleven more three figure scores to give him a total of twelve.



Shears and Borthwick served up the best matchup of the contest as Shears came out a 3-2 winner thanks in part to a leg in 14 whilst Borthwick fired a pair of 17 darters in riposte.


Octagon's precession to the Division A title continued with Lee Hellings providing most of the fireworks in an 11-0 away win at Fawn A.



Hellings reached sixteen tons with his best the only maximum of the match whilst Alfie Ford ended on eleven three figure scores.


Ford's tally was propped up by a 116 checkout that was the best finish of the match and week during this round of Division A fixtures.



Quinton Taylor was equally as influential in the demolition job as Ford with eleven tons and John Mann completed a quartet of double figure ton hitters for the champions elect with ten of his own.


Whilst the Greenbank outfit finished on the wrong side of a mauling, Mike Nancholas did put up some resistance in the scoring stakes with ten tons of his own.



In the three man second tie of the evening, Hellings teamed with Neil White and Fred Goldsmith (31.28) to put away 1001 in just 32 darts.


In the very next doubles rubber, Mann and Taylor formed a decent partnership with a 20 dart 601 leg before Hellings and Ford joined forces to claim a 2-1 win thanks to 22 and 18 darters over the same distance.



Goldsmith (27.33) was the most formidable contender in the singles phase with legs of 16 and 17 darts taking him to a remarkable single dart average.


Antony Hayman added fourteen ton plusses to the scoreboard in King Billy's 9-2 success over Saltram whilst teammate Paul Palmer fired the only maximum of the contest.



Former Hampshire, Devon and Cornwall county player Hayman suffered a 3-2 reversal in the individual phase as young starlet Liam Page checked 89 in a single visit during the notable scalp for the teenager.


The only two unbeaten players in Division A, Simon Kelly and George Beckett, narrowly avoided each other in the singles draw and came out unscathed as Kelly's Kings Arms B won 9-2 against Beckett's Steampacket.



Kelly's twelve ton haul wasn't bettered in the clash whilst teammate Roger Backway put up eleven three figure scores to continue the home side's push to victory.


Backway added an 18 darter to his night's work during a 3-0 individual success whilst the best checkout of the night came from the arm of Martyn Down when checking 80.



Dave Johns was the only maximum hitter for the Oreston team whilst Marc Webber added a 180 for his team in a 3-2 defeat to Kelly.


Kelly narrowly came through his tough test with a 17 darter his best before seeing his rival for the individual crown blow away a formidable opponent.



Beckett (31.31) dispatched Johns 3-0 with some class as legs of 13 and 15 darts did the damage and set down a marker for the final weeks of the season.


Colebrook's 9-2 win over Victory was lit up by Darren Smith who added twelve tons overall whilst Nathan Langdon was also in good nick with ten three figure scores.



James Ewing put up the only maximum of the match for the Plympton based team whilst Chris Beale added two 180s.


Those maximums trickled Beale's ton tally over to the eleven mark whilst the best checkout of the match came from Kirsty Whiting-O'Brien with a fine 77 combination.



Bluebird B's Vince Scallan led the away side to a 7-4 success over Indian Inn with a ten ton tally that included his team's only maximum.


Scallan's teammates Dale Halford and Nige Bassett put together a 601 doubles game in just 18 darts for the best leg of the match.



Alec Turner's 100 checkout enabled him to claim a 3-2 win over the on form Scallan whilst Harry Bull added his team's only maximum of the contest to go alongside an 18 darter in his 3-1 triumph.


Bull's cousin, Roman Wilson, added his name to the famous Bull darting family after starting life in the Plymouth City Super League with a 3-2 success in his very first outing.
