Wednesday brought another busy programme of grassroots darts, with 65 tournaments added to the Q4QS Database.
There was some exceptional scoring, including a 115.62 average from Andy Smith, 111.33 from Joshua Russell and three further averages of 107.36.
Across the South and South West, Samuel King won at Purton, Nathan Cornell claimed the Devizes Under-70 competition and Joe Quiney came through a closely contested Grand Slam final in Evesham.
There was plenty happening further afield too, including strong performances in the junior game, several competitive under-average tournaments and another successful outing for Johnny Haines.
Here are the results and performances that caught my attention.
Andy Smith Hits 115.62 at Bradmoor Farm
The Bradmoor Farm Wednesday Vault Break 3 competition produced the highest individual match average of the day.
Andy Smith averaged 115.62 against Neil Smith, before adding another outstanding performance of 107.36 against Andrew Bowler.
However, it was Adam Mould who took the title, defeating Smith 5–3 in the final.
Mould produced a 97.69 average in that deciding match, while Stuart Dutton also impressed with 100.20 against Shaun Cahalin and 96.97 against Lee Bell.
Both finalists recorded seven victories, with Tom Baughan and Dutton collecting six each.
There were 71 matches recorded, and this was undoubtedly one of Wednesday's strongest competitions.
Samuel King Wins at Purton
The Purton Red House Under-70 Round Robin was another event worth highlighting.
Samuel King defeated Dave Taylor 4–0 in the final, with both players finishing on eight victories.
King recorded the highest average of the competition, 96.97 against Tyler Kinnett, and also averaged 88.41 against CJ Hardie.
Wayne Millin contributed two strong performances of his own, averaging 83.50 against Ryan Millin and 81.24 against Ryan Turner.

King's combination of eight victories, the highest average and a convincing final made him one of Wednesday's standout winners.

Both finalists recorded six victories in a competition featuring 63 matches.

Building the Q4QS Database
Another 65 tournaments means thousands more individual performances and match results becoming part of the Q4QS picture.
Wednesday's results included open competitions, junior academies, women's darts, under-average tournaments and regular weekly round robins.
It's particularly encouraging to see the junior programme producing so many results, while established grassroots venues continue to contribute week after week.
I'll continue bringing together these performances, highlighting the players and tournaments that stand out, and building a more complete record of grassroots darts.
