Quarter final league cup

Castle A Vs Libby's A
Plough A Vs Vaults
Libby's United Vs Red Lion
PTC Vs Power Station

Dave Rowlands

the night started off pretty good with no hick ups.draws were done for the quarter finals of the league and bass cup in front of everyone, also the draw for the doubles.
then the last 32 battled it out, no real surprises at this stage, apart from Selby beating Skin with some great darts being thrown. unfortunately Baz Aston and Eamonn couldn't make it due to work and Nige Cox couldn't make it due to a bad back.
But tonight Kev Jones, Wayne Mayers and Gaz Marsh showing they meant business, along with Mark Hylton. the last 8 saw Selby, Martin Roberts, Grant Cowie, Geof Tatlor, Mark Hylton, Wayne Mayers, Kev Jones and Gaz Marsh going through, Gaz was hitting 180's for fun and taking out 161 for a 12 dart leg.
Quarter finals saw Kev Jones Brush aside Selby, Mark Hylton takes out Gaz Marsh, what a match. Young Martin Roberts takes out Wayne, Grant just beats Geof
Semi Final sees Mark cruise past young Martin and Grant just beats Kev suprisingly.
The final was one sided but great to watch, no wonder Peachy volunteered to mark this one. Mark went out in 14 and 11 which gave him an average of 120.4 even i would of struggled tostay with him, haven't practiced for a couple of weeks.
well done Mark and everybody who was there, Wayne won the card, thanks to libby's for the food and the venue

STAND UP AND BE COUNTED

With regards to the Dave Rowland’s Competition.
The idea of all games being played at one venue was right (Members Request). The venue was good, the staff were great and the members were great. 8 boards to use made it the perfect night!
However this was not the case, we only had 4 boards which was my fault, the draw was delayed also my fault. I will learn from my mistakes. What I take from this is that 127 people entered the competition and only 67 turned up, is it possible to plan a night when half the people who enter have no intention of turning up? If it had been played at 8 separate venues there would have been about 6 players at each venue, this would have created a poor atmosphere which is no good for the pub or the league. In future I will plan nights better and if I put my name down I will turn up, sorry for any inconvenience. Next time I will stand up and be counted

But will others?
