Champions Crowned In Open League

King Billy A claimed the league title in the Plymouth Open League Division A after a 9-2 win means they hold an unassailable lead with one game still to play.

James Ewing's 180 in the win over Ker St B was the only moment of magic for the team that were only formed two years ago who took the Division B crown in 2021-22.

Simon Wilbraham hit his team's only maximum for the team who are twenty-one points ahead of the Keyham outfit with twenty-two left to play.

Mainstone need to avoid an 11-0 defeat to Ker St B in their final game to fend off the unlikely threat of relegation whilst the latter need three points to avoid the wooden spoon.

Jolly Miller got only their fifth success of the campaign with a 9-2 success over Queens Dock which saw Dennis Moore finishing from 102 and Mike Pacey checking 107 in a single visit.

In Division B, Neil White chalked up twelve ton plusses and legs of 16 and 18 darts in a 9-2 win over Cherry Tree A that keeps Victory top of the league after their last game has been played.

Teammates Quinton Taylor and Adam Hill hit a 75 checkout and maximum respectively to help keep hopes of a league title alive with the Honicknowle team guaranteed to go up either way.

A 10-1 win for Ker St A over rock bottom local rivals King Billy B means the former will need to overcome second placed St Johnston C by a double figures win to claim second in the standings.

Alan Brady hit a maximum for the Railway but still ended up on the wrong side of an 11-0 drubbing as St Johnston C kept their title hopes alive.
