There was five last Thursday night with a brilliant two maximums for Keith Darby (Macons) and one each from Nigel Moore (Rising Sun B); Gregory McElhatton (Happy Landing) and Paddy McElhinney (Rising Sun A) who appears to be hitting 180s for fun this league campaign with four in just ten matches. The best leg of darts of the week was from the talented Conrad Watson (Rising Sun A) with a superb 13 dart leg.
