25.01.2022 Premier League - Results Last month saw the conclusion of the Young Darts Associations - Premier League competition. This competition was the first time "Set Play" has been used for a Singles competition in Young. Restrictions because of Covid19 meant it was also the first time iPads were used as well as self scoring. ... The format was 3 matches each night and each Match was 3 Sets of 501 Best of 5 Legs. Once everyone got use to this longer format of play the quality and standard of darts improved to unprecedented levels. Finals Night was played with the same Top 8 system as the Super Singles. The difference being all finals matches were 501 best of 11 Legs. Winner - Anthony Hatch Runner Up - Josh Townsend Semi Finalist - Ian Barrett Semi Finalist - Greg Lestrange Anthony Hatch and Greg Lestrange have once again raised the standard of darts in Young to a level never seen before. Hatchie and Greg dominated the competition from Round One and continued to improve week after week. In their Semi Final match Hatchie defeated Greg 6 legs to 3 with Hatchie averaging 80.01 and Greg averaging 72.79 - brilliant darts. In the Final, Hatchie defeated Josh Townsend by 6 legs to 2. Josh unfortunately couldn't find his rhythm until the closing legs which was just too late. Hatchie pounced and took advantage of every opportunity and thoroughly deserved his victory. Prize Winners Consecutive 140's - Greg Lestrange Bullseye Finish - Darrell Bailey Highest Peg - Josh Townsend 164 Most 100's - Greg Lestrange 259 Competition Highlight - There were numerous highlights through the competition but the one that deserves special mention was the 150 Peg-out by John Laybutt. John pegged the 150 by throwing 3 x Bullseye's. This was the first time 3 x Bullseye's have been used for a 150 finish in local competition and it will be some time before its repeated. The final Ladder and stats of the competition can be seen in photos below. A big thank you to all the players and sponsors.
