With the implementation of scoring via Dart Connect in 2024, results will not be published each week on the FDDA website or on Facebook.

Erveryone was access to the ladder and running statistic of nearly everything you can think of at the following link https://tv.dartconnect.com/league/FDD

The ladder is under the heading of Division Standings. Please note, the win/loss ratios and percentages are based on the number of legs won, not the number of sets won during the match. However each team’s position on the ladder is correct, based on the number of sets won. At this stage, we cannot change the way that is dsplayed.

All the ongoing stats are availible under League leaderboard. You can change the filters for grades etc. There is a glossary of the headings at the bottom of the page.

Open Doubles & Under 50 Singles ‘Round Up’

A great night of darts at the Spearwood Dalmatinac Club last night for the first of the seasons graded Singles and Doubles events.

In the first Doubles Semi Final, Bailey Marsh and Gary Stevens were triumphant over Steve Doherty and newcomer Liam Marlow while in the other Semi, veteran Kim Lewis and ‘Birthday Boy’ Dave Burke were too strong for ‘Young Guns’ Nathan Brooks and Kyle Hutchins.

A cracking Best of 7 Final between four great players eventually saw Bailey Marsh and Gary Stevens get over the line, making it ‘Back to Back’ wins in 2024.

In the Under 50 Singles, a starting field of 40 men and women saw some great darts thrown and a few surprise upsets along the way. Recent Runner Up in the Darts WA Ladies ‘West Coast Classic’, Cockburn Bowling Clubs Toila Harrison played solidly all night and was just ‘Pipped at the Post’ by fellow clubman, Dave Doody.
