Bognor darts' teams leaders and officials step up to oche

The Captains’ first semi-final brought a 2-0 win for Friary ‘D’ vice-captain Buster Barton over Simon Mitchell (Newtown Clubbers). The second semi saw Lewis Campling (Newtown Amity) beat Mike Davis (Lamb Nomads) by the same score.

In the final Barton won the bullseye, and kept the lead to take the first leg. Leg two went to Campling after two large scores helped him catch up. Barton got leg three and the lead back after four large scores helped him get to the double first.

Leg four saw both players hit a ton, but Campling got the game back to 2-2. The last leg saw Campling get the early start, but two tons on the trot from Barton saw him on the double first, needing only one dart for double 16, taking the match 3-2, and the captains’ title.

In the semi-finals of the secretaries’ knockout Mark Wingate (Newtown Clubbers) lost 2-1 to Ian Hackett (Lamb Nomads) and Alex Norgett (Newtown Amity) lost by the same result to Keith Robinson (Chi Snooker Club ‘A’).

In the final Robinson, the current reigning summer league secretaries champion and last years benevolent league secretaries champion, win the bullseye to go first.

Two tons saw him get to the double easily, but multiple’ misses on the double saw him left on double one, but just as Hackett closed in, Robinson took the leg.

Leg two saw Robinson hit five scores of 80 plus, but again he got stuck on double one, and this time Hackett got to the double and hit his finish.

Leg three brought three ton-plus scores on the trot from Robinson on his way to taking the leg, just as Hackett was catching up.

Leg four saw Robinson again hit the large scores with 100, 99 and 140. Hackett was nowhere near in this leg, allowing Robinson to stay calm and hit double top for the leg, taking the match 3-1 and the secretaries title.
