Well done to all teams making the finals
Another great night for the FDDA last night as 20 odd blokes in the singles and another 40 odd in the Under 50 double did battle to claim the honours.
The singles saw new FDDA Premier League player Dave Burke take the chocolates denying FDDA legend Kim Lewis his 6th Open Singles title in the final. A great match that went right to the last leg of the best of 11 clash. Kim did miss a number of darts at double to nail the victory but hats of to Dave who took his chance to claim victory in his first ever showing at the event.
Special mentions to Adam Rowe who lost the semi to Dave and also Tim Pusey who lost to Kim in his semi final match.
On to the Under 50 Doubles which also provided a down the wire, last leg affair. Congratulations to Daniel Larson and Kyle Hutchins from Willagee Rugby Club for taking the title against Gareth Lucy and Mike Turner representing Kardy Kats.
Thanks to all that come and had a go. We look forward to next time.
After a year off of our standard FDDA tournaments in 2020, it was great to get back to it last night for our Open Double and Under 50 Average Singles. It was a brilliant turnout with56 starters in the singles event and 23 pairs in the doubles event so it was a really full room down at Dallies which is always great to see. Good to see our old mate Jimmy from Just Darts back peddling his wares again – we missed you Jim.
Winners are grinners and with out any further ado here we go.
Under 50 Average Singles
Congratulations to Adam Bircumshaw (pictured left below) who took the chocolates from runner up Paul Stuart
Open Doubles
After coming back from a 2 nill down in a best of 5 semi-final and a 3 nil down in a best of 7 grand final, it was the let’s say, the mature pairing of Adam Rowe and Mark Dorotich who came from behind for a brilliant win against Dave Charnock and Gary Stevens.
It’s ‘GOLD’ at the “Metro’s”

Well done on all who ventured out and had a crack this week. A good roll up as always.
Congratulations to Charlie Lionti on his 3rd win in a row for the Under 60 singles. Charlie defeated Phil Cummins in the final.
In the Under 45 Doubles, it was Kelly Groves and Mike Condon winning against Kirby Orr and Ian Chambers.
Kelly showed some nerves of steel with two clinical pegs in the final.
As always a top roll up for these two events. We had 22 having a crack at the open singles and another 23 pairs getting involved in our under 50 average doubles. As you’d expect some really top darts thrown in the open doubles and good to see a few outside the Premier league getting stuck in and giving a few of the big names a run for their money.
Well done too to all players in the under 50 doubles.
On to the results. In the Open Singles, it was the old legend himself Kim Lewis prevailing over Lewis Kirk. Lewis had played some really great darts to beat Pete Pistol Sutton in the semis but couldn’t quite keep it going against Kim who continued some really great for after his semi against fellow Premier Leaguer in Dave Charnock.
In our Under 50 Average Doubles, last years Under 60 Doubles Winners Rod Newman and Graham McKenzie teamed up again and took the chocolates over Peter Palecki and Chris Ooi
