Frankie Stout (27.33) blitzed his Plymouth City Super League Division A opponent in a 10-1 win for Cherry Tree C at St Levans with a 3-0 win that contained legs in 16 and 18 darts.

Stout's 107 checkout earlier in the match contributed to a fifteen ton personal haul, and teammates Nathan Langdon and Dan Jewell shared three 180s between them.
Langdon added the lion's share of that tally, whilst the only noteworthy contribution from the home side came from Jason Johnson's 114 finish.

Simon Washington (26.36) provided an 18 darter and a 117 kill during an emphatic 3-0 win that helped Tradesmans to an 8-3 win over Raffles B.
Another 18 darter was hit in the game by Paul Hoare during his 3-2 defeat to Washington's teammate Kev Seal, which was decided by a 110 checkout.

Washington and Seal were the main aggressors in the scoring phase as the pair put on eleven tons each, whilst Hoare joined teammate Kev Doel in achieving a 180.
The other notable checkout of the contest came from Wayne Davis, who nailed an 89 single visit combo on his way to a 3-1 victory.

Lee Hellings (25.47) added sparkle to Octagon's 11-0 win over Indian Inn A with legs in 16 and 18 darts, helping him to a 3-0 victory.
As the best team in the league naturally do, John Mann, Andy Bates, and Alfie Ford (27.04) got out of the traps early with a 1001 leg in 37 darts.

Hellings then teamed with Sean Taylor and Neil White to nail a 38 darter over the same distance, and the brilliance didn't stop there.
Mann and Bates (29.32) knitted well together in the doubles, with Mann adding a 107 kill during a 2-0 win that was claimed in 23 and 18 darts.

Hellings and Ford (30.82) went better than their stablemates as Ford's 108 kill polished off one of their 18 and 21 darters in another 2-0 triumph.
Mann's (25.47) 3-0 singles success put the game beyond the away side, and he walked away with eleven tons for his night's work.

Ford continued his finishing form with a 124 three dart combination outhot in a 3-1 victory before Hellings and White both finished up with ten ton hauls, with Bates not far behind on ten.
Glenn Austin banged in fourteen scores of a ton or more to lead Bluebird A to a 7-4 win during a visit to Legends Lounge C.

Austin was supported in his endeavours by both Dale Halford and Tony Teal, who walked away from the oche with ten tons each.
Neal Walters provided most of the firepower for the defeated side with eleven tons, whilst teammate Reggie Cornish added two 180s to his night's work.

Austin and Walters shared the highest checkout honour with an 88 kill, whilst Cornish's 3-2 win was decided by a leg in 18.
Lewis Dare joint top scored for Cherry Tree D with twelve tons in a 10-1 demolition job of Fawn A, which also saw Dave Lee fire twelve three-figure visits of his own.

Nick Bryant and Phil Hoyle played their supporting roles superbly with ten tons each, whilst Bryant and Dare topped their ton totals off with maximums.
Lee's 100 outshot was the best effort from the victors, whilst a 106 from Dave Pethick provided the best from either side.

Pethick's teammate Dave Roberts added the only 180 for the defeated party, whilst a smattering of great legs accentuated the home team's dominance.
Dare and Lee (31.63) put together 601 legs in 16 and 22 darts for a 2-0 doubles win before both carried on their form into the individual phase.

Dare added a 15 darter in his 3-0 success, whilst Lee was a 3-1 winner thanks in part to legs that were put away in 15 and 17 darts.
Ford Inn's 8-3 win at Legends Lounge A saw Mark Shears and Dan Brazier dominate the scoring phase with eleven tons each.

The 180s in the contest were shared between the two teams as both Paul Gavican and Ryan Fuller struck three treble visits.
Fuller also made headlines at the business end of legs as his 15 darter provided crucial in deciding the outcome of his 3-2 win.

Shears 3-1 win contained a leg in 17 darts, whilst Scott Wapshott bagged himself an 18 dart leg and a 100 combo during a 3-0 success.
Steampacket's 9-2 win over Kings Arms B came with a big nudge in the right direction from George Beckett's ten ton tally.

Beckett added to Nick Miller's 180 to make it two for the victors, whilst Beckett also showed his heroics at the business end with a 96 checkout.
That effort was sandwiched in between Mike Tucker's 87 and a 116 from teammate Marc Webber for the best finishes of the night.

An excellent 3-1 win for Beckett's teammate Mike Connell saw the best leg of the matchup taken out in just 18 darts.
A 6-5 win for Kings Tamerton versus King Billy A saw checkouts of 76 and 102 by Gary Hoyle and Lee Doncaster, whilst Kev Lofthouse and Tom Graham provided a 180 and a 16 darter as the other highlights.
