Fifty-seven players from the Tenby District and Town Darts Leagues toed the oche at the DSS Club on Friday night for the Sid Evans Charity Gold Cup competition.

The event was organised and run by district officials Digger Brown and Graham Thomas, who did a superb job keeping play flowing on the five boards.

The standard of darts was high quality, with a number of 180 scores recorded; also several high finishes.

The board winners contested the semi-finals, with results being as follows: S. Hughes (Jeff) 2 F. Bayliss (Crown, P) 1; Phil John (RFC) 2 D. Legrice (Jeff) 0.

The final was a keenly contested match played over five legs, which was won by the impressive Steve Hughes, who had performed well in all the early rounds, against another impressive player, Phil John (Tenby RFC), who had also been in good form throughout.

The final score was Steve Hughes 3 Phil John 1.

The trophy was presented to the winner by league secretary, Digger Brown, who thanked all the players for supporting the event; Chris Page and Les Cale (RFC T/L) for organising the raffle; Brian Carswell for his help with marking of the games; and the DSS Club for use of the venue.
