Sunday saw another huge day of grassroots darts, with 49 tournaments added to the Q4QS database. As always, there was plenty of quality across the country, but this roundup focuses mainly on the South West, where several familiar names continued their excellent seasons.
Andy Hammond Backs Up Friday's Success
One of the biggest stories of the day came at Vault 18.0 @ Matson Rugby Club, Gloucester.
Just two days after lifting the Saintbridge Sports Club title, Andy Hammond made it back-to-back Vault victories by defeating Mitch McCarthy in another high-quality final.
Josh McCarthy produced two 90+ averages during the afternoon before falling in the latter stages, highlighting just how strong the Gloucester field was once again. Andy's latest success further underlines the superb form he has shown over recent weeks.
Andy Steed Keeps the Momentum Going
Another player continuing a remarkable run is Andy Steed.
He claimed the Vault 18.0 @ The Queens Arms title after overcoming Dave Fisher in the final, adding yet another trophy to what is becoming an outstanding summer.
With title after title arriving over recent weeks, Andy remains one of the most consistent performers anywhere in the South West.
Archie Self Hits Three Ton Averages
Over at The Phoenix Club, Waterlooville, Archie Self produced one of the individual performances of the day.
Archie defeated former PDC Tour Card holder Steve West in the final, but it was the manner of the victory that caught the eye. His run included averages of 100.20, 97.87 and 97.38, demonstrating the sort of scoring power capable of winning any tournament.
Plymouth Success for Scott Lawrey
At Vault 18.0 @ Legends Lounge, Plymouth, Scott Lawrey enjoyed an excellent afternoon.
He defeated Nick Miller in the final after recording four successive 80+ averages during the event, continuing his impressive recent form on the Devon circuit.
Mark Wellington Wins in Cinderford
Another Gloucestershire title went the way of Mark Wellington, who lifted the trophy at The Nags Head Inn, Cinderford.
While Graham Jenkins recorded the highest average of the event, Mark consistently found a way through the draw to collect another Vault title.
Strong Performances Across the Region
Elsewhere, Ricky King claimed victory at Swanage RBL, while Joseph Lauridsen won the latest JDC VOLTS event in Exeter. Charlie Mossman also impressed by taking the Minehead JDC VOLTS title after another excellent day's darts.
Performance of the Day
There were plenty of outstanding displays on Sunday, but Archie Self's scoring at Waterlooville deserves special recognition. Three averages approaching the ton, followed by victory over Steve West in the final, made it one of the standout performances of the weekend.
Meanwhile, Andy Hammond and Andy Steed continued their exceptional recent form with yet more Vault titles, reinforcing their status as two of the hottest players on the South West circuit.
Congratulations to everyone who lifted a trophy on Sunday, and good luck to those back on the oche this week.
