Two teams with different motivations at this stage of the season with the Javs looking to keep momentum going for finals and Dragons hoping to improve their finishing position.

Tossers v Wanderers
Well playing the Seasons winners was never going to be an easy task but the Wanderers gave it their all! Tossers took the night 15-0 showing how dominant they have become over the season.
Both Lance and Dave from the Wanderers scored 140s on the night, putting up a strong fight against the Tossers, but it wasn’t enough to bring home a win for the Wanderers
Congrats to the Tossers on advancing to the next round of the Presidents Shield

This game was a fight to the last dart. Cannons took the first doubles but then the Mustangs brought the first round home. Ian scored 174 in his double, contributing to the double win. The second round was anyone’s game, with both teams fighting strong and taking 3 a piece. It all came down to the very last games of the night, the 5th and 6th game of singles – no pressure guys!
Peter S and Gary had nail biter, to the third leg. But Peter S took the game and secured the Mustangs win of 8 games for the night.
Well done to the Mustangs and good luck on your next game!
