2011 Summer League Below

PRESENTATION NIGHT
Another successful year was concluded with the annual presentation night. Many thanks to all those who helped in the set-up at the Writtle Club, especially Derek Lodge and Dave Elliott. Once again, many thanks to Keith & Julia Hemsworth and Douglas White for doing the raffle and raising £227 pounds for the league, which helped claw back some of the monies which I'd over spent on Trophies... Ian Waller assisted Chairman Matt Doe to dish out the trophies, and thanks to all the teams that were there to ensure I didn't have too many to take home!  There were six teams that didn't have a representative, Black Bull, Galleywood SC 'A', Ingatestone CC, Railway Hotel, Tulip and White Horse.  The league handed over a Cheque to the "HEART OF DARTS" for £1,100, plus Ian picked up many of the cash prizes from players who decided to donate their winnings, also Neil Yates who donated £50. The £1,100 was made up of a donation from the Brentwood league, the Cherry Tree B (from BBDDL), plus donations from Lorraine Hudson, Alan Carrington, Steve & Chris Boret who all donated their trophy monies, plus the match vs Wickford and the Reg Atkins Competition, and the competition entries. Good luck to all for the next 12 months.

Both teams had players pulling out at the last minute, Wickford suffered more than Ingatestone, however both teams fielded teams that gave a superb quality game of darts...

Wickford took two of the next 3 with Tony Lambert our only winner... Wickford then pulled in-front 5-4, winning the next 3 games... Wins from Robbie Turner and Martin Compton pulled the scores level at 6-6; as IDDL struggled to win a pairs match... IDDL than pulled in-front, winning the next 3 games, John Wastenage won 2-1 and scored a 180, Richard Howson won 2-0 and Peter Wiffen & Adam Miller won 2-0 in the pairs... Wickford once again pulled level as the IDDL lost all 3 games... the IDDL won the next 3 to go 12-9 ahead as Harry Smith won 2-0, Andrew Kateley won 2-1 and Mel Sylvester & Senan Corry won 2-0...

The Independents being Mark, Kevin and Danielle Tebbutt took the Team title with 5,574 average points.
