Another fantastic turn out at the Spearwood Dalmatinac Club last night with 44 x starters in the U/45 Singles and 21 x Pairs in the U/60 Doubles.

It was extremely pleasing to see so many new players attending and in the Singles the honours went to first year player Mark Warren from the Hilton ‘Navy’, edging out another first year player in Phil Dono from the Cockburn MDC in the final.

The Doubles saw the brother and sister team of Kayleigh and Ricky Pickett Jnr slay all before them and going on to defeat old stagers Ossie Ford and Daniel Larsen in the final.

Many thanks once again to the Spearwood Dalamtinac Club for their hospitality and also to first time Games Co-ordinator Mark Walsh for a job well done.

Congratulations to both Fremantle teams on winning ‘Silver’ in Divisions 1 and 3 last weekend at the Darts WA State Teams Championship. In an extremely strong field of players from all over the State both teams played solidly all weekend and were rewarded for their efforts with ‘Silver’ medals. Congratulations to Kim Lewis, Peter Sutton, Matt Moody and Milan Josic on all being selected to trial on Saturday 28^th and Sunday 29^th May for a possible position in this year’s State Team travelling to Moama NSW in August.

Once again, a huge thank you to Kristina Gallacher and Cassandra Clancy for all their fine bookwork and support for the boys over the weekend.

2020 was again a fantastic season for Western Australia’s most elite competition and it all culminated on the evening of November 4th when the top 8 players earned their way through to finals night. Congrats to all the lads in the comp this year and thanks for supporting this fantastic league.

From Left to Right: Lewis Kirk, Dean Couling, Bailey Marsh, Tim Pusey, Denis Parr, Mick Zdun, Dave Charnock, Kim Lewis

The night kicked off with the following Quarter-Finals:

1. Tim Pusey (1) v Mick Zdun (8) Tim won this match 6/1 with a per dart average of 90.2 to make his way into the first semi.
2. Lewis Kirk (4) v Kim Lewis (5) with Lewis being the victor 6/3 with his average of 76.8 against Kimmy’s 78.4
3. Defending champion Dean Couling (3) v Bailey Marsh (6) saw young Bailey play brilliantly averaging 93.9 to beat Dean 6/0 who himself had an 86.6
4. Dave Charnock (2) v Denis Par (7) the guys averaged 80 apiece but it was Denis the Menace taking the choccies defeating Dave 6/3

Semi-Finals:

Tim Pusey v Lewis Kirk  – what a cracker, a 96.5 average from Tim including a 10 dart leg and a 90.6 average from Lewis made this match something to behold and it was Tim who won the rubber 6/3

Bailey Marsh v Denis Par  – neither of these blokes could quite keep up their earlier form in terms of averages with 70.2 from Bailey and a 68.8 from Denis but it was enthralling nonetheless. At the end of the day,  age and experience won out over youth and exuberance with Denis winning the match 6/2 to book his spot in the grand final.

Grand Final – first to 7 legs

Tim Pusey v Denis Par – this was understandably a nervy affair as both players mixed good shots with some they’d wish to forget but it was highly entertaining regardless with Tim throwing in 2 x 11 darts legs to average 78.8 and defeat Denis (74.1) 7/5

We’re sure the win was all the more special given Tim became a first-time Dad only the day before so a massive congratulations to Timmy on both achievements.

Division standings at the end of the qualifying season were as follows. Bear in mind the averages are “per dart” so add about 8% to reflect our WA averages. You can knock yourself out with all sorts of stats and results for the season by CLICKING HERE
