Admiral Drake duo are most valuable on oche

His Admiral Drake B team-mate Gary Collis claimed the highest finish with a maximum 170 check-out.

Meanwhile, the fastest legs came from Steve Filby, of Jolly Taxpayer C, and Sam Palmer, of Shearer Arms, who both fired in 12-darters.

Neil Hallett, of Druids Arms A, was the most consistent performer in division B as he only lost two games.

Hallett also threw the joint-quickest game – with his 17-dart leg equalling the exploits of team-mate Brett Smith and Lord Chichester A’s Pete Curtis.

Artillery Arms’ Derek Manchip notched a 157 game-shot which no-one in the second-tier could better.

George & Dragon may have finished in the bottom half of division C but their was individual success for Shane Plummer, who took the aggregate, quickest game and top finish prizes.

Plummer shared the aggregate with Froddington Arms duo Mark Donnelly and Luke Graf, each with three losses.

A 17-dart leg saw him match the efforts Oyster House A’s Lee Lamkin, Dave Lock, of Froddington Arms, and Portland Arms’ Rob Griffin.

And a 130 finish ensured Plummer was outright winner of the best check-out.

Eldon Arms’ Michael Chandler had a personal double in division D.

Just two losses for the season meant he shared the aggregate prize with Red White & Blue’s Steve Fell, while a 16-darter was the fastest leg.

The highest finish was claimed by another Eldon player, Kevin Oliver, with a 128 game-shot.
