Tuesday last saw the first match in the second half of the Worthington’s Llandudno and district darts league summer programme, and as we see, the title race is now really tight at the top ,only three points separating the leaders at the top with the exception of the young Alexandra team of the Division Four who still hold on to a four points lead after their top of the table clash at the newcomers Estuary Glan Conwy, this young Alex team really making a name for themselves this summer season and on this night they came away with a hard fought 4-3 win.
In the Samson service Sponsored division two, Dave Nolan and his RAOB club b team continue their good form with a 4-3 win over the links Hotel, but as the score shows they had to pull out good darts to clinch these points, leaving it to Geoff wedge to just beat Ian Eardy in a nail biting game after going to one leg each in this deciding game but Geoff hit the double finish first to keep the RAOB club sharing top place with the Pen y Bryn B, both these teams now have opened up a four points gap and on this form they really are going to be hard to catch, but praise also for Maz Yates and her Penrhyn Arms c team, newly promoted this season had a shaky start but putting some good darts to gether now and a rewarding 5-2 win at the Maelgwyn moves them off the bottom of this table.
The Pen y Bryn Sponsored Division three sees yet another Penrhyn arms team having a good season, Dave Commander and his B team holding on to this to place with a three points lead after another good performance against the station Hotel with a 5-2 score line, and making a welcome return and still in good form that all round sports man Deniol Graham winning his game two legs to nil. Danny Brenan and his Crossville club also keeping in touch with the leaders after their 4-3 hard fought win at the Mountain View A who just cannot hit their finishes I hear.
Up with the big boys in the Emlyn H Roberts sponsored Division one, no change at the top the leaders pen arms A still in over drive and no stopping them as they pile on the points. They took the first five games on the run to beat the Malt loaf Conwy with only Chris Jones and Gareth Jones hitting a 13 dart check out and both winning to put the score line at 5-2, while over at the Community Club, they to in awesome form again and crushed the Bron Eryri seven Games to nil which is the biggest defeat the Br on have had for many seasons also saw Steve Williams hit his second maximum 180 for the second week running, and after a good start, the Cricket club dropping some valuable points again , last week it was Martin Beresford and his Kings arms team who took the three points in this hard 4-3 score line and fitting that it was Left to Martin to win his game and the match.
