Dazzling darts being thrown in SWGDL

The South West Gippsland Dart League is set for a thrilling second half of the season after another high-quality night of darts in round 11.

The individual highlights came from Dean from Bullseyes – who threw his second 180 for the season – and Keith from Mud Rats, who threw his first.

There have now been 15 180’s thrown in the first half of the 2023 season, a significant increase on seasons gone by.

The highest peg-out for the first half of the season remains with Terry from Just Social – with 142 – the best of seven 100-plus checkouts this year.

Dean from Snipers has a huge lead in the most tons thrown for 2023, sitting on 65, with Ant and Terry next best with 46.

Other notable totals in the race for most tons are Shane from PakyOne on 41, Tim from Rebels and Jamie from Just Social on 37, and Thom from Rebels on 36.

Round 11 was a relatively one-sided event, with teams in a tightly-bunched top-half of the ladder getting the better of their lower-ranked opponents.

Snipers remain in top-four contention after an 11-4 victory over Gembrook, while Warriors had the most impressive win of round 11 with a 12-3 triumph over 26ers.

Only one game separated the two teams heading in, but Warriors now sit second – two games clear of the 26ers in sixth place.

In other games, Rebels smashed The Hoodies, 15-0, while Bullseyes claimed their second-consecutive victory with a 10-5 win over Fore.

And top-of-the-ladder Just Social showed their class with a 13-2 success over Mud Rats.

The big game of round 12 sees sixth-placed 26ers trying to draw level with fourth-placed Rebels on seven wins for the season.

R11 Results: Snipers 11 v Gembrook 4, Warriors 12 v 26ers 3, Rebels 15 v The Hoodies 0, Bullseyes 10 v Fore 5, Just Social 13 v Mud Rats 2, PakyOne – Bye.

R11 Ladder; Just Social 36, Warriors 32, PakyOne 32, Rebels 28, Snipers 28, 26ers 24, Bullseyes 16, Gembrook 12, Mud Rats 8, Fore 4, The Hoodies 0.
