180s: Wickford; Tom Woods, Dave Solly and Keith Weller [x2]

Brentwood; George Harris

The highest shot-out on the night was 106 by John Sutton against Dean Johns

Keith Weller scored both of his 180s in his second leg after going a leg down.

    This was the first time that the Wickford & District League had played against the Brentwood & District Dart League and hopefully not the last. The match was played on three boards, with two being used for Singles matches and one for the Pairs matches. Brentwood took the early lead by winning the first two Singles matches and two out of three of the Pairs matches. Eight wins in the singles and two in the Pairs then put  Wickford 10-5 in front at half way in the match.  Brentwood came back with two singles victories and one pairs to narrow the gap to within two games,  but were unable to win another pairs and only won three of the remaining eight singles matches. Neil Nagle, Brentwood’s Captain did have the consolation of  winning the last singles and some of the scorelines do not truly reflect the closeness of the match. I only managed to see parts of matches, but one sticks out in my mind, the pairs match  between Dave Solly & Doug Gerrard and George Harris & Rob Pod. Dave opened with 180 and then scores below 80 didn’t count. Thanks for your support and remember, that if we play Brentwood again, the match will be on their night (Tuesday) and at one of their venues, so who knows what will happen.
