TURBO TAKES SDM 10 AS THE TIGER HEADS THE FINAL TABLE

It was success for Trevor Burkhill as he tried to qualify for the grand final which would have been incredibly tough as 12pts was needed and with only 10 for the tournament win up for grabs two bonus points would also be needed.He got into gear early defeating Lester Big red Bowers in the last 32 to send him into the last 16,Lester who had already qualified gave a good show taking the 1st leg only for Turbo to hit gear and take the win.in the last 16 he would take on Steve Rumble the winner of SDM 1 and another hoping to make the top 16 rankings.Trevor was quick into stride rattling off the match in under 10 minutes as both men took the treble bed apart.Julie White who had come through against Ben Stainer and Tom Shooter Sawford to show everyone why she is Yorkshire number 1 and and has just landed a sponsor was next up for Trevor Burkhill and it was the PDC/Yorkshire man going through to the semi finals with a 3-0 win.Darren Johnson had a very tricky draw as he took on Sam Fordham in the last 32 and came through it well after Sam had taken the 2nd leg against the arrows and pushed Dynamite all the way.It was then the local derby as Darren Weaver and Darren Johnson went at it on board 1 and with the game all square at 1-1 Darren hit 2x180's and a 13 dart leg to take him into the last 8.Matt Padgett beating Chris Keane and Tony darlow beating Carl Moorhouse set up the match of the 3rd round as both Tony and Matt hit no fewer than 5x180s in a 3-2 win for the Tiger to set up a last 8 game against Darren Johnson and although Tony hit another maximum it was Dynamite going through to set up a semi-final against Turbo Trevor Burkhill which did not disappoint with Darren missing his chances to lead it was Trev that took a 2-0 lead and then the match turned as Trev missed doubles for the match and Darren levelled the game at 2-2 and a 14dart leg by Trevor in the fifth with the darts was enough to see him through to the final.The bottom half of the draw it was Nick White that won through as he kicked things off with a bloodless 3-0 win over Chris Edwards and then took on the Brilliant Josie Pattison who had won through to the last 16 and missed darts twice to take the lead only for Nick to make the last 8.Ryan Goffin would meet him there after wins against Andy Radford and Bob Pinder but a maximum for Nick and 2x17 dart legs was the killing point as he went into the semi-finals courtesy of Ryan.He would meet Rich Beck making his semi-final debut after coming through a tough draw himself after rich saw off Tom Briggs and a close one with Kenny Hoult he would take on former r/up Simon Birket who had beaten Lewis Nota and Billy Wragg earlier and it was Rich who beat Simon 3-0 with Richard missing nothing.Nick White then went into the final as he beat Rich claiming the first 2 legs before Rich hit gear but nick just shaded the last leg to set up a match with Trevor Burkhill in the final.Nick threw well in the final hitting a barrage of 140's but never had a shot at a double as Turbo finished well and dominated the match winning 3-0 but credit to both players winning through to there 1st SDM finals.

JOHN BOY WINS THE FATAL 4WAY AT THE TOP

It was week 31 and the final week for the Premier league of darts and it did not let us down......

With two men still in contention and other places still to be decided it was left to the top 5 players all playing each other to see who became the very first Projectdarts Premier league champion....

It came down to one game John Walton vs Trevor Burkhill, this is Graham Bartley's report on the game...
"First leg trev had the darts, and led off with 140, 140, 91 left himself 130 after 9. Next throw saw him hit two treble twenty's and wire double 5 for a 130 checkout and a 12 dart leg. Unfortunately the double proved elusive for him and John saw his chance and replied with some heavy scoring of his own. Which included a 180 and and a 12, I believe that gave him a chance to win a leg which had looked set to go with the throw. John duly dispatched the double to take the first leg in 18 darts.That was quickly followed with a another leg of power scoring from both players taking lumps out of each other, which resulted in john firing his way to back to back 11 dart legs to take a commanding 3-0 lead. Full credit to trev he never gave up and valiantly continued power scoring pushing his opponent all the way, but ultimately couldn't prevent john finding the last double required, to take the match 4-0 and become the champion and inaugural winner of the projectdarts woodbourn red dragon singles league. Congratulations to both players for a quality match, which would not have looked out of place on TV"
Terrific game it was and a credit to the league.
Now we move to the last week and we have to start at the bottom as Karl Salisbury-roper remained the only man without a win as he went down in both games to finish bottom.Antonio "Tony Cross" Cruz was next up and he too was a little out of touch tonight with some solid darts but some that went astray.Chris Keane also never picked up a leg in his defeat to Ryan Critchlow.Ricardo "Cruz Control" got off the mark against Andy Bradbury only to fall 4-1.Tom "Shooter" Sawford moved up two places with a fine victory over Mark Pigot which caused him to fall two spot as Jason Cole and Paul Beck got good wins.Andy Taylor's 5 game unbeaten run came to an end against Ryan Goffin which moved Ryan up into the top half and was joined by Lester "Big Red" bowers who came through two tricky contest with 3 points.Rich Beck cemented his place at 12 with a fine victory and Steve Briggs 3-3 draw with Steve Rumble wasnt just enough to take tenth spot,John Daniels win and Pete Daffins last victory made sure both men sat comfortable inside the top ten.Arguably the player of the season for improvement Lee Cushworth had got himself into contention as a possible winner but a defeat to Turbo and two narrow defeat against Dynamite and the Alien gave Simon Birkett and Bob Pinder a chance at the 5th spot which eventually went to Simon.Darren Johnson's victory over Lee 4-2 was enough to send him into 2nd place on 55pts after being 3-0 up lee rallied with some super darts to match the already great darts by Dynamite and both men kept it going to the last leg which Darren shaded it.the last game was Trevor Burkhill who had dropped to third after the defeat to John and Darren's win and he would play Tony darlow who himself could still steal 2nd spot with a big win over Turbo but living up to his name Trevor raced into a 3-0 lead hitting 17,14,15 dart legs before Tony then hit a reply only for Trevor to take the next leg and a 4-1 win to win 2nd spot in the league.
Congratulations to John Walton on winning the league and £1000 top prize and a big well done to the rest on a awesome seaon full of darts.
