A LOOK BACK IN TIME - ALAN TOWE 02.10.2002

No less than twelve maximums were recorded in this week’s Sportsmans Rest Double Top League and the man in form notching five of those was John Ainsworth. In John’s first game against Jimmy Frost he hit three, Frost doing well to restrict his defeat to 2-1. Ainsworth then followed up with two more180’s in a 3-0 victory over Derek Fardon to consolidate his fourth place in the table. Steve Cain was another man to hit two maxis has he beat title chaser David Platt 2-1. Other’s to hit three treble twenties were Peter Allen, Dawn Barnes Gordon Clinton, Paul Cummings and Richie Shenton.

It’s still neck and neck for the title with Peter Allen on 157 points, five ahead of David Platt, could Platt’s defeat against Steve Cain cost him the championship?

In the premier division of the Sheldon and District Winter League, reigning champions St Annes chalked up their first points of the campaign with a 6-3 success at the Three Horse Shoes. Highwood, with a ten darts leg from S.Kennedy, were the division’s top scorers, an 8-1 victory over Hobs Meadow, who appear to be finding life tough in the top division.

In division one, British Telecom Club, Solihull Borough FC and EBAHA are the only teams to have won their first two fixtures. A 7-2 win over Banbury Club gives Solihull the slight edge on average and pole position. One leg adrift is EBAHA and then Telecom who are a further leg behind.

Maintaining their 100% record in division two are, Lea Hall Sports and Social, Sheldon Shoes and Old Bill and Bull.
