Yesterday’s Darts Results: Mat Caste Hits 115.62 as 81 Tournaments Join Q4QS – 27 September 2026

Sunday produced one of the biggest Q4QS result days of the week, with 81 tournaments added to the database and some outstanding numbers from around the country.

The headline performance belonged to Mat Caste, who hit a huge 115.62 on his way to winning at the Carlton House Club in Olney. Curtis Hammond wasn't far behind with 111.33 in Ipswich, while Elliott Neary, Andrew Cook, Andy Steed and Stuart Bennett all reached 103.66.

There was plenty closer to home as well. Plymouth produced two of the day's 103.66 averages, Paul Gardiner won again in Taunton and the Junior Volts programme supplied a huge number of results across the country.

Caste combines 115.62 with the title

The biggest individual performance came at the Carlton House Club in Olney, where Mat Caste averaged 115.62 in a 2–0 victory over Bill McCloud.

It wasn't simply one big match either. Caste also recorded 98.02 and eventually won the tournament, beating Dean Taylor 3–1 in the final.

He finished the day with eight victories and, for me, that's one of Sunday's clearest standout performances: the highest average anywhere in the Q4QS results and the tournament win to go with it.

Hammond hits 111.33 in Ipswich

There was another huge performance at the Gardeners Arms in Ipswich.

Curtis Hammond hit 111.33 against Kai Garwood and went on to beat Arthur Allston 3–2 in the final.

Allston had an impressive day himself, recording 102.00, 100.20 and 98.93, but Hammond took the title with eight victories.

That's a very strong tournament at the top end, rather than simply a single eye-catching average.

Plymouth produces two 103.66 averages

One of my favourite results of the day came from Legends Lounge in Plymouth.

Andrew Cook and Andy Steed both hit 103.66, Danny Bull reached 96.97, and Mark Gilbery recorded 91.09 twice.

Despite all those numbers, it was Danny Bull who came through to win the tournament, beating Gilbery 3–0 in the final.

Bull and Gilbery both finished with seven wins, with Steed on six. That's a good illustration of the strength we're beginning to see regularly at some of the South West Vault venues.

Paul Gardiner wins again in Taunton

At the Queens Arms in Taunton, Paul Gardiner took the title with a 3–1 victory over Ashley Howe.

Gardiner's best performance actually came in the final, where he averaged 84.18, and he also recorded a 75.07 during the event.

Nigel Hodges hit 83.50 and Lauren Collins 75.15 on another competitive Sunday at the venue.

Wales provides another ton-plus performance

Wales continues to add plenty to these daily reports.

Louis Melville hit 100.20 at the Mile End Inn in Swansea, although the tournament itself went to Jonny Carr, who beat Josh Richards 3–1 in the final.

There was also a 100.20 from Dafydd Roach in the Clwb Emrys Draig Under-66 Finals Day. Roach went on to win that tournament as well, beating Mark Burton 3–2 and finishing with seven victories.

Elsewhere in Wales, Kevin Mills won in Blaenavon with a 92.02 along the way, Timothy Jones took the Briton Ferry Vault and Rhodri Phillips won in Llandysul.

Stuart Bennett joins the 103.66 club

The New Croft in Haverhill produced another performance worth highlighting.

Stuart Bennett averaged 103.66 against Harry Donno, added a 92.90 later in the tournament and then took the title with a 3–1 final victory over Gary Butcher.

Charlie Gambin also broke the ton barrier with 100.20, while Butcher reached 93.94.

Bennett finished with seven wins, making this another case where the big average was backed up by the tournament result.

Elliott Neary hits 103.66

At Ellistown Working Mens Club, Elliott Neary recorded 103.66 and later added an 88.41.

The tournament went to Macy Gibbons, who beat Jack Beasley 3–1 in the final and finished with eight wins.

Leon Baumber also impressed with 92.17 as another Vault produced plenty of depth beyond the eventual winner.

Mike Gillet dominates in Eastleigh

One of the more complete performances came from Mike Gillet at Eastleigh WMC.

Gillet won the tournament with eight victories, beating Jack Seymour 3–0 in the final with a 98.02 average.

His other leading figures included 91.09, two 88.41s and 85.89.

It may not quite have the headline number of Caste or Hammond, but that is a very strong sequence across an entire event.

Another huge Junior Volts day

Sunday was particularly busy for the JDC Junior Volts series, with events staged across the country.

One of the South West winners was Joseph Lauridsen at The Kings Pub in Exeter, beating Aaron Rea 3–0 in the final. Lauridsen hit 83.50 during the event, matching Oliver Hutchings for the best average.

There were also titles for players including Hector Bowers, Jackson Osborne, Reggie Bellott, Alfie Osman, Jack Turner, Freddie Skone, Arjun Sharma, Tyler Shuck and Josh Lloyd.

At The Big Fish in Leigh-on-Sea, Will Fisher produced one of the strongest junior performances of the day, winning the tournament and recording an 86.71.

WADC: four Sunday tournaments

There were four WADC Vault 3.0 tournaments in Sunday's results, so they certainly deserve their own section.

At Highways Sports & Social Club in Colchester, Sophie Shepherd beat Catherine Haley 3–1 in the final.

At Penybanc RFC in Ammanford, Rhian Osullivan beat Alannah Waters-Evans 3–1. Osullivan also recorded an excellent 81.98, although the source data for this event appears to contain some mixed match rows, so I'd be cautious about drawing too much from the wider event statistics.

Bridget McGuire won at the Phoenix Club in Waterlooville, beating Rosie Robinson 3–2 and finishing with five victories. McGuire also produced the three highest listed averages among the women's results there.

Finally, Elizabeth Moss won at The Station in Bognor Regis, beating Susan Ramsay 3–1 and finishing with seven victories.

Four WADC events in a single day's export is another useful addition to the growing women's database.

Five performances that caught my eye

1. Mat Caste – 115.62 — Carlton House Club, Olney
2. Curtis Hammond – 111.33 — Gardeners Arms, Ipswich
3. Andrew Cook – 103.66 — Legends Lounge, Plymouth
4. Andy Steed – 103.66 — Legends Lounge, Plymouth
5. Stuart Bennett – 103.66 — New Croft, Haverhill

Elliott Neary also hit 103.66, Tony Chapman reached 102.48, Arthur Allston 102.00, while Dafydd Roach and Charlie Collins both recorded 100.20.

81 tournaments in one day

The scale of Sunday's results is probably the biggest story of all.

81 tournaments means hundreds of players and thousands of individual match results feeding into Q4QS.

There were Vaults, Junior Volts, WADC events, restricted-average competitions, junior tournaments, local opens and league competitions covering a huge geographical spread.

And that's increasingly what I want Yesterday's Results to show.

The winner matters, but so does the player who hits 103 and doesn't win. So does the junior putting together a run of 80-plus averages, the player improving at a regular venue, and the strength of a tournament several rounds before the final.

The bigger the database gets, the more of those stories Q4QS can find.

Q4QS Weekly Spotlight Week Ending 26th September 2026

 

Three Players Who Caught My Eye This Week

Another week of grassroots darts, and this time my three selections are Andy Steed, Kirsten Casley and Tony Chapman.

As always, this isn't simply about finding the three highest averages or counting who collected the most trophies. The idea of this feature is to pick out performances and stories that caught my attention for different reasons.

This week I've got a player who reached four finals in five days, a young player mixing success in girls' darts with impressive performances in open competition, and a player who managed to win four tournaments during the week.

Three very different stories, but all three deserve a closer look.

---

Andy Steed

Player Profile

Andy Steed has become one of the most familiar names in the South West events covered by Q4QS.

His record now stands at 943 matches, 784 wins and 159 defeats, giving him an excellent 83.1% win rate across 144 events.

He's collected 52 tournament victories, alongside 31 runner-up finishes, and his overall recorded match average is 76.16. His best is a huge 111.33.

What's particularly noticeable at the moment is his form. Andy's last ten recorded matches have all been victories, while his last-five average has climbed to 87.20. Andy Steed_profile

He's also shown that he can beat some very strong players. His recorded victories include Owen Bates, Simon Stevenson, Gareth Griffiths, Neil Wild and Robbie Martin. Andy Steed_profile

This Week

Andy had one of those weeks where he seemed to be appearing at the business end of virtually everything he entered.

He started with a final at Legends Lounge in Plymouth on Sunday, losing out to Simon Stevenson. The following night brought another runner-up finish, this time at 8 Ball Bar & Sports in Paignton.

Then came the wins.

On Wednesday at Barnstaple Football Club, Andy took the title, beating Neil Ridd 3–0 in the final with a 92.02 average. Andy Steed_profile

Twenty-four hours later he did it again at Cue Sports Bar in Torquay. He averaged 85.08 in his quarter-final, 93.94 in the semi-final, and 87.61 when beating George Butcher 3–1 in the final. Andy Steed_profile

That's four finals in five days, two titles, and he finished the week with ten consecutive recorded victories.

That's some week.

---

Kirsten Casley

Player Profile

Kirsten Casley's selection is perhaps the best example of why I don't want this feature simply to become a list of the week's most prolific tournament winners.

She has now played 319 recorded matches across 75 events, winning 193 of them for a 60.5% win rate.

There are already eight tournament victories, ten runner-up finishes and eight semi-finals on her record. Her overall average is 54.11, but there are plenty of signs of a much higher ceiling — including a personal best of 85.89. Kirsten Casley_profile

She's also already recorded wins against players including Eve Watson, Lloyd Sterio and Rhys Evans. Kirsten Casley_profile

This Week

Kirsten first caught my attention on Tuesday when she reached the final of the WADC Vault 3.0 at The 9 Darter in Port Talbot, finishing runner-up to Eve Watson.

But Friday was the real highlight.

Kirsten won the JDC Girls Series and also came through the JDC Wales Girls Series Event 6 at Arrows Darts Venue.

In the latter, she beat Erin O'Sullivan 3–0 in the quarter-final, Tia Sterio 3–1 in the semi-final and Celyn Saunders 3–1 in the final, averaging 65.09 for the title match. Kirsten Casley_profile

There was another interesting performance the following day. Playing in a Money In Money Out event, Kirsten produced an 81.24 average in a 2–0 victory over Lloyd Sterio, one of the highest averages of her recorded career. Kirsten Casley_profile

A WADC final, success in the girls' events and then an 81-plus performance in open competition.

Exactly the sort of week this feature is designed to notice.

---

Tony Chapman

Player Profile

Tony Chapman doesn't yet have the huge volume of matches in the Q4QS database that Andy Steed has, but what is there makes impressive reading.

Across 88 recorded matches, Tony has won 77 and lost just 11 — an 87.5% win rate.

His record currently contains six tournament wins, three runner-up finishes and two semi-finals from just 12 events. His overall average stands at 74.13, with a best of 103.66. Tony Chapman_profile

That 103.66 only came on 18 September, so his current run of form hasn't suddenly appeared from nowhere.

This Week

Tony's week is the easiest of the three to summarise:

Four tournament victories.

He started on Sunday by winning the Vault at Fordham RBL, beating Jon-Sebastian Wright 3–0 in the final. During that event he also produced a 93.68 average against Dylan Waites.

On Monday he moved on to Legends Sports Bar in Wisbech and won again, with a 93.94 average among his performances.

Thursday brought title number three at Thetford Pool Club, where he defeated Adam Fellingham 3–0 in the final.

And then came Saturday's invite-only competition back at Fordham RBL.

Tony won seven matches on the day and finished it by beating Liam Ticehurst 5–0 in the final with an 81.68 average. His knockout run also included a 3–0 quarter-final win and a 4–0 semi-final victory. Tony Chapman_profile

So that's Fordham, Wisbech, Thetford and Fordham again.

Four tournament wins on four different days.

A fairly straightforward reason for making this week's three.

---

Three Different Reasons to Catch the Eye

That's what I like about this week's selection.

Andy Steed demonstrated remarkable consistency, reaching four finals in five days before finishing with back-to-back titles.

Kirsten Casley showed why looking beyond the obvious tournament winners can uncover a much more interesting story, combining girls' success with a WADC final and an 81-plus performance in open competition.

And Tony Chapman simply kept winning — four tournaments across the week.

Three players at different stages, playing different circuits and catching the eye for different reasons.

I'll be looking through the results again next week to see who stands out.

Yesterday’s Darts Results: Two 115.62 Averages as Andy Smith Stars – 24 September 2026

Yesterday's Results – Thursday 24 September 2026

Thursday is always a busy night for grassroots darts, and another 58 tournaments have now been added to the Q4QS database.

This time I've widened the net a little. The South West will always be an important part of Q4QS, but with results coming in from across southern England and Wales, there are too many good performances elsewhere to ignore.

And Thursday produced two particularly eye-catching numbers.

Two players hit 115.62

The highest recorded averages of the night were shared by Andy Smith at Cressex Social Club in High Wycombe and Paul Higgins at the Junction Inn in Hengoed.

Smith's 115.62 came in a 2–0 win over Paul Tubb, and it wasn't his only big performance. He later averaged 100.20 against Stuart Dutton before going on to win the tournament, beating Andrew Bowler 3–0 in the final.

Smith finished with eight wins from the night.

Over in Wales, Higgins matched that 115.62 at Hengoed with a 2–0 win over Keri Dacey.

The title there eventually went to Stephen Cake, who beat Ryan Davies 3–1 in the final and finished with eight wins. Cake also produced averages of 96.97 and 93.94 during the tournament.

Wales produces another 107.36

There was another big Welsh performance at Brynmawr Social Club, where Bryan Flew averaged 107.36.

Flew also recorded a 90.44 later in the tournament, although the title went to Gethyn Bennett, who beat Dylan Ruck-Havard 3–0 in the final and collected eight wins.

It's exactly the sort of result I want to start bringing into these roundups more often as Q4QS coverage grows.

Ashton Brown impresses at Hangar 61

Closer to home, Ashton Brown produced an excellent night at Hangar 61.

Brown won the Thursday night round robin, beating Jamie Shovelton 3–0 in the final, and recorded eight victories.

The numbers were impressive too. Brown's best was 103.15, and he also produced 96.72, 95.23 and 92.02.

John Brown added a 98.02, making it another strong night at Hangar 61.

Steed makes it two wins in two nights

Andy Steed's week continues to get more interesting.

After producing a 96.14 in Tiverton on Tuesday and winning in Barnstaple on Wednesday, Steed was back on top again on Thursday at Cue Sports Bar in Torquay.

He beat George Butcher 3–1 in the final and recorded a best average of 93.94.

That's now two tournament victories on consecutive nights at two different Devon venues, alongside several 90-plus averages. Definitely one to keep watching.

Maisey wins at Worcester as Hughes hits 107

Barry Maisey took the title at The Cue Corner in Worcester, beating Stewart Wilde 3–1 in the final.

Maisey saved one of his best performances for the final, averaging 99.20, while Wilde recorded 94.34.

The biggest number at the venue, though, belonged to Pete Hughes, who hit 107.36.

Maisey finished with seven victories, with Callum Weaver and Wilde both on six.

Jamie Kay wins again

Jamie Kay also made it consecutive winning nights.

After taking Wednesday's event at Bodmin Band & Social Club, Kay won again on Thursday at St Breward AFC & Social Club.

He beat Joseph Juleff 3–0 in the final, averaging 90.18, while his best performance of the night was 91.09.

Kay finished with six wins.

Plenty happening across the South

There were strong performances much further across southern England too.

Ryan Mitchell hit 107.36 at Farnborough, although Archie Self went on to win the tournament with eight victories.

Mat Caste averaged 104.86 at Bletchley and then won the event, while Jason Collins produced a 102.48 in the final at Locks Heath, Southampton, beating Jarred Cole 3–0.

Jack Johnson combined a 103.66 with the title at Tunbridge Wells, Ricky King won at Poole, Ross Lowe took the Dover event and David Moule won in Andover.

That's the sort of geographical spread I want Yesterday's Results to reflect increasingly as Q4QS grows.

Wales deserves a mention

There was plenty more happening in Wales beyond the 115.62 from Higgins and 107.36 from Flew.

Kacey Jones won at Welshpool and averaged 93.94, Gavin Sterio won at Maesteg with a 93.94 of his own, Chris James took the Llanelli event after reaching 91.02, and Louis Melville won at Glynneath, where Ellis Williams recorded 93.94.

There was junior success too, with Dylan Person winning the Junior Volts event at Cogan Coronation in Penarth.

Five performances that caught my eye

1. Andy Smith – 115.62
   High Wycombe
2. Paul Higgins – 115.62
   Hengoed
3. Bryan Flew – 107.36
   Brynmawr
4. Ryan Mitchell – 107.36
   Farnborough
5. Pete Hughes – 107.36
   Worcester

There were actually four recorded 107.36 averages on Thursday, with Lee Bradshaw at Skegness joining Flew, Mitchell and Hughes. Mat Caste's 104.86 and Ben Chamberlain's 103.66 were also among the ten highest figures of the day.

Another 58 tournaments added to Q4QS

That's another 58 tournaments added to the database.

The individual results give us plenty to talk about, but it's the accumulation of all this data that interests me most.

Every night adds more to the player records, rankings, venue histories, averages, head-to-heads and form. We're also now starting to see players appearing in these roundups on consecutive nights – Andy Steed and Jamie Kay being two obvious examples this week.

The wider the coverage becomes, the more interesting those comparisons should become.

Yesterday's Darts Results: Quiney Hits 111 Average as Boundy, Lauby and Steed Win – 23 September 2026

Yesterday's Results – Wednesday 23 September 2026

Another 70 tournaments have gone into the Q4QS database from Wednesday, and this was a particularly good night for the South and South West.

There were titles for Steve Boundy, Alec McCready, Danny Lauby, Andy Steed, Jamie Kay and Jack Walker among the featured results, but perhaps the number that jumps off the page most is 111.33.

That belonged to Joe Quiney at Bengeworth.

Quiney hits 111.33 – Lauby takes the title

Bengeworth in Evesham produced one of the performances of the night.

Joe Quiney averaged 111.33 in a 2–0 win over Shaun Vernall. Vernall himself had already produced a 96.97, so there was some serious quality on show.

Quiney's tournament eventually ended against Danny Lauby, who beat him 3–1 with an 89.44 average before going on to defeat Shaun Vernall 3–2 in the final.

Lauby finished with eight wins, while Quiney and Vernall both recorded six.

So the title went to Lauby, but the standout number belonged to Quiney.

Boundy wins a strong night at the Sartan

The Sartan Club in Bishopsworth continues to produce interesting results.

This time Steve Boundy took the title, beating Ryan Palmer 3–1 in the final.

Boundy also broke the 100 barrier with a 100.20 average, followed by a 99.55 later in the competition.

Ryan Palmer wasn't far behind, recording 97.57, while Zach Quinn hit 94.91 and Mervyn Adams 93.94.

Palmer actually collected the most wins during the night with seven, ahead of Quinn and Boundy on six apiece.

That's a pretty strong set of numbers for one local Wednesday night tournament.

Steed wins in Barnstaple

Andy Steed followed Tuesday's 96.14 in Tiverton with another good performance, this time turning it into a tournament victory.

Steed won the Vault 19 event at Barnstaple Town FC, beating Neil Ridd 3–0 in the final.

He averaged 92.02 in the final and also recorded a 91.09 earlier in the tournament.

Steed finished with eight wins, with Ricky Preedy next on six.

Two different Devon venues in two nights and Steed has now produced 96.14, 92.02 and 91.09 performances across them.

McCready breaks 100 in Leominster

Alec McCready was the winner at Shooters Bar in Leominster, beating Chris Hurds 3–1 in the final.

McCready produced an excellent 100.20 average during the tournament and followed it with 93.71 in the final and 91.66 against Zak Turner.

That's three 90-plus performances from the eventual champion.

McCready finished the evening with seven wins, while Chris Hurds and Ryan Griffiths recorded five each.

Jamie Kay takes Bodmin title

Jamie Kay won at Bodmin Band & Social Club after beating Logan Symons Jnr 3–2 in the final.

Kay averaged 91.93 in the final, having already recorded a 90.18 earlier in the competition.

James Chudleigh also reached 90.00, while Symons Jnr produced an 83.50.

Kay finished with seven wins, one ahead of Symons Jnr.

Walker wins at Stonehouse despite huge Lewis average

There was an interesting final at Magpies Social Club in Stonehouse.

Josh Lewis averaged 98.40, but it wasn't enough to beat Jack Walker.

Walker averaged 90.41 in a 3–1 victory over Lewis and eventually went on to beat Will Jackson 3–1 in the final.

Walker produced four of the venue's five highest listed averages himself – 90.41, 85.08, 83.50 and 81.24 – and finished with six wins.

Plenty happening elsewhere in the South West

There were several other results worth mentioning.

Steven Rees won at Break N Dish in Street, where Dan Williams twice averaged 96.97. Darren Herbert won at The Choughs in Chard, beating Leighton Cox, while Andrew Cook produced a 95.94 on his way to winning at The Pitch Sports Bar in St Austell.

The junior game was represented in Exeter too, where Joseph Lauridsen won the Junior Volts event at The Kings Pub and produced the tournament's highest average of 81.24.

Five South West performances that caught my eye

1. Joe Quiney – 111.33
   Bengeworth Club, Evesham
2. Alec McCready – 100.20
   Shooters Bar, Leominster
3. Steve Boundy – 100.20
   Sartan Club, Bishopsworth
4. Josh Lewis – 98.40
   Magpies Social Club, Stonehouse
5. Ryan Palmer – 97.57
   Sartan Club, Bishopsworth

And once again, it shows why I like looking beyond simply who won the tournaments.

Quiney and Lewis didn't win their respective events, but produced two of the most eye-catching performances in the region.

The national numbers were even bigger

Across the complete set of results, Jack Johnson and Dean Rogers both recorded 115.62 averages.

Aaron Reed, Joe Quiney and Ricky King all hit 111.33, while there were several more averages above 107.

Ricky King's performance at Christchurch was particularly notable because it wasn't a one-off match: his listed averages included 111.33, 107.36, 98.02 and 93.94, and he went on to win the tournament with eight victories.

Another 70 tournaments added to Q4QS

That's another 70 tournaments feeding into the Q4QS database.

Individually, they give us Wednesday night's winners and standout performances.

Collectively, they're building something much more useful: player records, venue histories, averages, form, rankings and head-to-head data.

And when someone like Andy Steed produces big numbers on consecutive nights at different venues, or a venue such as the Sartan repeatedly produces strong fields, that growing history starts to become particularly interesting.

Quest For Q School | Q4QS Player Profiles & Rankings

Yesterday’s Darts Results: Shaun Vernall Hits 111.33 as 70 Tournaments Join Q4QS – 16 September 2026

Wednesday nights are rapidly becoming one of the biggest nights of the week for the Q4QS database.

This time, 70 tournaments were added, bringing another huge batch of grassroots results into the rankings, player records and venue data.

And there were some seriously good numbers among them.

For my South and South West coverage, Shaun Vernall produced the standout performance with a huge 111.33 average at The Bengeworth in Evesham, and then backed it up with another 107.36. Vince Tipple ultimately took the title there, beating Danny Lauby 3–1 in the final.

Meanwhile, Chard produced another excellent tournament, Andy Steed won again in Barnstaple, Josh Lewis took the title in Stonehouse and there was plenty more happening across the region.

Vernall goes 111.33 and 107.36 at Evesham

Let's start at The Bengeworth.

Shaun Vernall hit 111.33 and 107.36 averages on the same night.

Those are two enormous performances at this level, and the 111.33 was the highest average among the South West performances highlighted in Wednesday's results.

But the tournament belonged to Vince Tipple.

Tipple produced two 93.94 averages during his run and finished with seven victories before beating Danny Lauby 3–1 in the final.

Lauby collected six wins, while Aaron Edmunds, Reece Pinches and Darrel Williams all recorded five.

It's another good example of something that comes up regularly in these reports: the player producing the night's biggest average doesn't necessarily end up holding the trophy.

Mason Doble wins a high-quality Chard event

The Choughs Hotel in Chard produced arguably the deepest local set of headline performances of the night.

Jack Walker averaged 107.36.

Darren Herbert wasn't far behind with 103.66.

And eventual champion Mason Doble joined them in three figures with 100.20.

Doble then did what neither of the other two managed – he won the tournament.

He finished with a remarkable nine victories, with Herbert recording eight, before Doble beat Herbert 3–0 in the final.

Three different players breaking the 100 barrier makes Chard one of Wednesday's obvious venues to highlight.

Andy Steed wins again

Andy Steed's name seems to be appearing rather regularly in these reports.

This time the venue was Barnstaple Town FC, where Steed finished with seven victories and defeated Zac Sanders 3–1 in the final.

He also produced the highest average of the tournament at 91.80, alongside further performances of 86.91 and 82.20.

Daniel Donovan reached 88.41, while Sanders and Nigel Gullon both recorded six wins.

So unlike some of Wednesday's other tournaments, there was no split between the statistical standout and the champion here.

Steed topped the averages and took the title.

Logan Symons Jnr takes Bodmin title

There was another strong winning performance at Bodmin Band & Social Club.

Logan Symons Jnr averaged 96.97, 93.94 and 90.18 during the tournament and finished with seven victories.

Martin Smith also collected seven wins, setting up the final between the pair.

Symons edged it 3–2 to take the title.

That's a particularly impressive trio of averages from the eventual champion.

Josh Lewis delivers in Stonehouse

At Magpies Social Club in Stonehouse, Josh Lewis was both the leading scorer and the tournament winner.

Lewis hit a tournament-best 90.94, added 81.98 later in the competition and then averaged 81.14 as he defeated Matthew Kerry 4–2 in the final.

He finished the tournament with six wins.

Another strong Wednesday night performance from one of the venues right in the heart of my regular Q4QS coverage.

Sartan title goes to Alfie Palmer

The Sartan Club in Bishopsworth produced another competitive Vault.

Matthew Rogers recorded the highest average at 93.94, while Steve Boundy produced 88.41, 84.09 and 83.82.

But it was Alfie Palmer who came through the field.

Palmer finished with eight victories and defeated Boundy 3–2 in the final.

With Sartan now becoming such an important part of the Q4QS South West data, these Wednesday results continue to add considerably to the venue's player records and rankings.

Wayne Millin fires in 103.66

There was another eye-catching three-figure performance at the Purton Red House Under-70 event.

Wayne Millin averaged 103.66, despite the tournament being an under-70 average competition.

Millin ultimately recorded five victories, while Chris Martin went on to take the tournament with eight wins and Samuel King finished with seven.

It is one of those unusual individual performances that immediately jumps out when going through the daily data.

Andy Evans takes Devizes title

There was also a strong night for Andy Evans at the Devizes Town Round Robin Under-70 event.

Evans recorded eight victories and produced the tournament's two highest averages – 84.42 and 81.29.

Daniel Fitchett also reached eight wins, but Evans won their final 4–1 to take the title.

Beyond the South West

Although these reports remain weighted towards my South and South West coverage, some numbers elsewhere are simply too good to ignore.

George Cressey produced a 111.33 at Tonbridge and followed it with a 100.20 on his way to eight victories and the title, while Joe Croft hit 107.36 at Abbots Langley.

There were plenty more big averages across Wednesday's enormous results set as well.

That's one of the benefits of the database getting larger: I can keep the main focus on the areas Q4QS currently covers most closely while still spotting performances elsewhere that deserve a mention.

70 more tournaments added to Q4QS

The number at the top of today's graphic is probably worth emphasising: 70 tournaments.

Every one adds more information to the Q4QS picture – more matches, more player form, more head-to-head data, more venue history and more evidence behind the rankings.

For the South West, my main Wednesday stories are Shaun Vernall's 111.33 and 107.36 at Evesham, Jack Walker's 107.36 at Chard, Mason Doble's nine-win title run, another Andy Steed victory and strong winning performances from Logan Symons Jnr and Josh Lewis.

And with this much darts now arriving on a single Wednesday, there is becoming far more to these daily reports than simply listing who won.

Yesterday’s Darts Results – Honey Hits 104.86 as Boundy, Steed and Rowley Take Friday Titles (28th August 2026)

 

Friday produced another busy evening of grassroots darts, with 22 tournaments from 28 August added to the Q4QS database.

There was plenty to pick out across the South West and beyond, headed by an excellent 104.86 average from Dave Honey at Evesham, while Steve Boundy continued his strong run at Portishead and Andy Steed came through a competitive opening night at Galaxy Sports Bar.

Honey stars at Evesham

The standout individual performance came at Evesham Darts Competitions, where Dave Honey won the Champions Elect Round Robin.

Honey defeated Pete Hughes 4–1 in the final, but it was his 104.86 average earlier in the competition that really caught the eye – the highest recorded average across Friday's 22 events.

There was plenty of quality around him too. Hughes reached 95.94, Shaun Vernall produced 93.94, and Tony Gisbourne registered 90.18.

It wasn't the only competition at Evesham either. Richard Coombes won the Champion of Champions Final Qualifier, edging Richard Bambridge 5–4 in the deciding match.

Boundy comes through another Portishead battle

Steve Boundy added another title at Portishead Workmens Darts, winning Friday's open event after a close final against Logun Godbeer.

Godbeer produced the highest average of the tournament at 81.83 and accumulated nine wins across the event, but Boundy came through the final 4–3 to take the honours.

It's another good result for Boundy at a venue where his name has appeared regularly in recent Q4QS roundups.

Steed wins as Godfrey breaks 100

There was a high-quality night at Galaxy Sports Bar, where Andy Steed won the first Friday Night Series event.

Steed defeated Charlie Wiles 2–0 in the final, with both players recording nine wins during the competition.

The biggest number, though, came from Ross Godfrey, who produced a 103.12 average. Steed wasn't far behind with a 96.97, while Curtis Green also reached 93.94.

Rowley wins SDO Summer Series thriller

Paul Rowley came through the SDO Summer Series 6.6 Open at Severn Darts Organisation.

Rowley edged Dean Rogers 4–3 in the final and produced a 96.58 average during the event.

Mark Crutchley provided another of Friday's ton-plus performances, hitting 100.20, but Rowley beat him on his way to the title.

Avis takes Bridgwater title

At Bridgwater Darts Academy, Reuben Avis enjoyed an excellent run through BDA DiDo Week 4.

Avis finished the competition with nine wins and defeated Alex Bird 2–0 in the final. His highest recorded average was 69.91.

Plenty more winners across Friday

There were plenty of other titles worth noting.

Andrew Quinn won the Bradmoor Farm Friday Vault Break 2, defeating Sean Holley 3–1 after a competition in which Sam Ridgway hit 96.97. Kev Raynsford took the Epsom Social Club Vault Break 2 with a 4–3 victory over John Power, while Corey Milward won the Friday One Off Round Robin.

Elsewhere, Jake Shipley won at Bostin Darts 180 Bar, Adam Mitchell took the Money In Money Out title at Shooters Bar and Jamie Chaplin won the Wicketts Friday Night Round Robin.

Friday's standout numbers

Honey's 104.86 led the way, followed by Godfrey's 103.12 and Crutchley's 100.20.

Sam Ridgway, Andy Steed and Rico Anderson all reached 96.97, with Paul Rowley at 96.58 and Pete Hughes at 95.94.

It was another night that showed the depth of grassroots darts being captured by Q4QS – big averages, close finals and established names sharing the headlines with players continuing to emerge through local competition.

With another 22 tournaments added, the database continues to grow and feed into the wider Q4QS rankings, statistics and player analysis.

Yesterday’s Darts Resultst 13th August 2026 South and South Wes: Nankervis Hits 100 on Way to Bodmin Win as Steed, Walker, Martin and Quinn Take Titles

 

Wednesday 12 August produced another huge night of grassroots darts, with 54 tournaments added to the Q4QS database.

The South West supplied plenty of the night's stories. Jack Nankervis combined a tournament victory with a 100+ average in Bodmin, Andy Steed won Week 6 of the Pawlett Pavilion Grand Prix, Jack Walker impressed at Stonehouse, Robbie Martin continued his winning form at Stalbridge and Zach Quinn came through a competitive night at the Sartan Club in Bristol.

And while they didn't all end up with the trophy, there were some seriously impressive individual performances too.

Nankervis Produces the Complete Performance in Bodmin

One of the performances of the night came from Jack Nankervis at Bodmin Band & Social Club.

Nankervis took the Vault 18 title with a 3–1 final victory over Jamie Kay, completing a night in which he recorded eight wins.

Perhaps more impressively, he produced a 100.04 average against Kev Dunstan and also registered 96.97 earlier in the competition.

Dunstan actually produced the highest average of the tournament with 101.93, making Nankervis' eventual victory over him even more noteworthy.

Andy Steed Takes Pawlett Grand Prix Week 6

At Burnham & Highbridge Darts, Andy Steed came through a busy Pawlett Pavilion Grand Prix to take the Week 6 title.

Steed finished with nine wins, the most recorded by any player at the event, and beat Paul Griffiths in the final.

He also produced some strong numbers along the way, including an 88.79 average, while Kieran Spurdle topped the night's averages there with 93.94.

Walker Dominates at Stonehouse

There was an excellent night for Jack Walker at Magpies Social Club in Stonehouse.

Walker defeated Lee Bradley 3–0 in the final, but it was the manner of his run which particularly caught the eye.

His recorded averages included 92.02, 83.50, 77.74 and 77.08, and he finished with seven victories.

It was a strong combination of consistency and results from Walker, with Bradley himself enjoying a good night with six wins.

Robbie Martin Wins Again at Stalbridge

Robbie Martin continued to underline his recent form by winning at Stalbridge RBL.

Martin defeated Matt Yarrow 3–2 in the final and accumulated eight wins across the tournament.

However, the standout individual average at Stalbridge belonged to Alfie Yarrow, who fired in a superb 103.66. Yarrow also produced two separate 91.09 averages during the event.

Martin's best listed performance was an 88.75 in the final.

Zach Quinn Comes Through at the Sartan Club

There was another competitive Vault 18 night at the Sartan Club in Bishopsworth, where Zach Quinn emerged victorious.

Quinn beat Ellis Radford 3–2 in the final and finished with seven wins.

Radford had earlier beaten Quinn and recorded an 88.41 average, while Ryan Palmer hit 87.27. But when the title was on the line, Quinn reversed the earlier result, averaging 83.63 in the final to take the trophy.

McCready Wins a High-Quality Leominster Event

Alec McCready was the winner at Shooters Bar in Leominster, defeating Chris Hurds 3–2 in the final.

Both finalists also broke the 100 mark during the tournament.

Hurds produced 100.20 against Zach Boardman, while McCready matched that exact figure against Clayton Johnston.

McCready eventually finished with eight victories to Hurds' seven, making this one of Wednesday's stronger-looking events on the numbers available.

Alfie Yarrow Heads the South West Standouts

Away from the tournament winners, Alfie Yarrow's 103.66 at Stalbridge was one of the best performances recorded in the region.

Kev Dunstan's 101.93 at Bodmin was another major highlight, while Carl McFarlane broke three figures with a 100.20 at Galaxy Sports Bar in Torquay. McFarlane's big number came on a night eventually won by Harry Madge.

There was also that 100.20 apiece from Chris Hurds and Alec McCready at Leominster.

It meant Wednesday wasn't simply a busy night in terms of tournament numbers – there was plenty of quality being produced as well.

Under-55 Action

The Wednesday Night Under-55 Average competition was won by Jack Kempster, who defeated Karl Aldom in the final.

Kempster accumulated eight wins across the night, while Aldom recorded five. Alfie Miller produced the competition's highest listed average at 73.32.

These restricted-average competitions remain particularly interesting to follow because they give another group of players regular competitive tournament darts – and, as the database continues to grow, we're increasingly able to follow their form alongside players competing in open events.

Three Players Hit 111.33

Looking beyond the South West, the highest figure of the entire day's data was remarkably shared by three players.

Allan Way, Kai Clark and Lee Evans all recorded 111.33 averages, while Evans backed his up with another huge 105.74.

Bryan Flew produced 104.86 and 103.66, with Ryan Walsh, Daniel Varney and Alfie Yarrow also recording 103.66.

As always, these are individual match averages rather than tournament averages, but they provide a fascinating snapshot of some of the best darts being played around the grassroots scene.

Another 54 Tournaments Added

Wednesday's 54 tournaments add another substantial chunk of results to Q4QS.

The individual winners matter, but the bigger picture becomes increasingly interesting as the database grows.

Repeated tournament wins, sustained runs of form, improving players and strong performances at different venues all start to become visible.

And Wednesday provided a little bit of everything: Nankervis winning with big numbers, Steed collecting nine wins, Walker dominating at Stonehouse, Martin continuing his form and Quinn coming through another competitive Bristol field.

Plenty more to follow.

Yesterday's Darts Results South and South West– 31 July 2026

 

Thirty-nine tournaments were added to the Q4QS database on Friday, making it another busy evening across the grassroots darts scene. As always, the South West produced plenty of eye-catching performances, with several familiar names lifting Vault titles, while there were also standout displays from around the country featuring some exceptional three-dart averages.

The South West was once again at the heart of the action.

Pete Hughes claimed the Vault 18.0 title at The Bengeworth Club, Evesham, defeating Graham Hall 3-1 in the final. While Hughes lifted the trophy, it was Joe Quiney who produced one of the performances of the night, firing in a superb 111.33 average, with Vince Tipple also breaking the 107 barrier during an excellent evening of darts.

Cornwall also celebrated a winner as Jamie Kay enjoyed an outstanding run to victory at St Breward AFC & Social Club. Kay defeated Dennis Bryant 3-1 in the final and impressed throughout the night, recording four of the venue's five highest averages while winning ten matches across the competition.

Gloucestershire provided another high-quality event where Shaun Vernall edged Joe Bagguley 3-2 in a closely fought final at Saintbridge Sports Club. Paul Meyer produced the headline average of 100.20 during the evening, while Bagguley also recorded two performances above 93, underlining the strength of the field.

In Somerset, Andy Steed lifted the title at Bullets Sports Bar, Yeovil, overcoming Ben Collins 3-1 in the final. Daren Field and George Hughes both posted impressive 96.97 averages, highlighting the quality throughout the competition rather than just the eventual winner.

Taunton's Pegasus 68 Club saw Steven Rees defeat Jack Bellingham 3-0 in the final. Bellingham produced the night's highest averages at the venue, but Rees was clinical when it mattered most to secure another Vault title.

The women's action at Bengeworth saw Jane Price defeat Rachel Curtis 3-2 to take the WADC Vault title, rounding off another successful evening for one of the South West's busiest venues.

Away from the South West there were several exceptional performances.

The standout average of the day belonged to Shane Turner, who produced a stunning 120.24 average at East Challow before Lee Evans eventually claimed the title. Elsewhere, Roger Crook, Mick Rodgers, Jake Eichen and Jack Harvey all featured among the day's highest averages, while Paul Rowley and Luke Harding both exceeded the 104 mark in their respective events.

Another 39 tournaments added to the database demonstrates the incredible depth of grassroots darts currently being played across the UK. Every evening brings new winners, new standout performances and more movement within the Q4QS rankings, with Friday's action providing another excellent snapshot of the strength of local darts.

Yesterday's Grassroots Darts Round-Up – 23 July 2026

 Thursday is always one of the busiest nights of the week on the grassroots circuit, and yesterday was no exception. I added 42 tournaments to the Q4QS database, with hundreds of players competing across England and Wales in Vault 18 events, local leagues, round robins and junior competitions.

The evening produced some outstanding performances, with several players breaking the 100-average barrier and plenty of familiar names continuing their excellent recent form.

Robbie Long Continues His Incredible Run

One of the standout stories came at Hangar61, where Robbie Long defeated Cori Wiltshire 3-2 in a closely fought final.

Robbie's recent form has been exceptional and another tournament victory continues an impressive winning streak. Although Ashton Brown recorded the highest average of the night at the venue with 105.68, Robbie produced two 96+ averages on his way to lifting the trophy, showing both scoring power and consistency.

Andy Steed Claims Plymouth Honours

At Vault 18.0 @ Legends Lounge, Plymouth, Andy Steed enjoyed another excellent evening, defeating Finlay Cleave 3-0 in the final.

Steed also produced the highest average of the tournament at 91.09, underlining why he continues to be one of the strongest performers in the South West.

Robbie Martin Stars In Yeovil

The performance of the night in the South West arguably belonged to Robbie Martin, who won the Vault 18.0 event at Yeovil Labour Club.

Martin defeated Mike Harper in the final and produced a superb 111.33 average, one of the highest recorded anywhere in the country during Thursday's action.

Henry Cooper Hits A Huge Average

The highest average recorded across all competitions came from Henry Cooper, whose incredible 115.62 average helped him win the Vault 18.0 event at The Kings Arms, Wallisdown.

It's a performance that will certainly catch plenty of attention and demonstrates the quality regularly being produced on the grassroots circuit.

Looking Ahead

With another busy weekend of darts just around the corner, there will be plenty more opportunities for players to climb the Q4QS rankings.

As always, congratulations to everyone who picked up titles, reached finals or produced personal best performances,

Yesterday's Results Round-Up – Monday 20 July 2026

 

Monday saw another busy evening on the grassroots darts circuit, with 39 tournaments added to the Q4QS database. As always, this roundup focuses primarily on the South West, where several familiar names continued their excellent recent form and another handful of standout performances caught the eye.

Andy Steed Keeps the Winning Run Going

One player who simply refuses to slow down is Andy Steed.

Andy claimed another Vault 18.0 title at 8 Ball Bar & Sports, Paignton, adding yet another trophy to what has become a remarkable spell of form. He also produced a superb 91.09 average during the evening, once again showing why he remains one of the hottest players on the South West circuit.

With titles continuing to arrive week after week, Andy is enjoying one of the strongest runs of the summer.

Mitch McCarthy Wins Strong North Star Field

The North Star Club, Calne once again attracted a competitive field, and it was Mitch McCarthy who came away with the title.

While Mitch lifted the trophy, the event also produced some exceptional darts. Gary Hiscock fired a magnificent 104.86 average, while Josh McCarthy added performances of 100.20, 99.21 and 94.02, underlining the quality throughout the night.

It was another reminder that Calne continues to produce some of the strongest Monday night darts in the region.

Ben Collins Triumphs in Salisbury

At Stratford Social Club, Ben Collins enjoyed an excellent evening to take the latest Monday Vault title.

Billy Kelly pushed him all the way during the competition, while Zachary Petty recorded the highest average of the night at 88.29. It was another closely contested event that showcased the depth of talent in Salisbury.

Craig Britten Tops the Under-65 Event

The Clandown Darts Promotions Under-65 Average Round Robin produced another entertaining evening.

Craig Britten lifted the title after a consistent day's work and also recorded the highest average of the tournament at 81.24, rounding off an excellent performance from start to finish.

George Humphreys Continues His Excellent Form

Another player to impress was George Humphreys, who claimed victory in the JDC VOLTS Series 7 at Stratford Social Club, Salisbury.

George once again demonstrated why he is regarded as one of the brightest junior talents, adding another title to his growing collection after another confident display.

Codi Wagstaff Wins in Weston-super-Mare

The 49 Club Under-55 Round Robin produced another competitive local event.

Codi Wagstaff emerged victorious after a strong evening, while Bart Mansfield recorded the highest average of the competition with 69.91. It was another well-supported event with plenty of competitive matches throughout.

Performance of the Day

Although Andy Steed continued his superb winning run, the individual performance of the evening arguably belonged to Gary Hiscock, whose outstanding 104.86 average at North Star Club was one of the highest recorded anywhere in the Q4QS database on Monday.

The standard continues to rise across the South West, and if Monday night's action is anything to go by, there will be plenty more storylines to follow over the coming week.

Congratulations to all of Monday's winners, and good luck to everyone back on the oche over the next few days.

Yesterday's Results Round-Up – Sunday 19 July 2026

 

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.

Yesterday's Results Round-Up – Friday 17 July 2026

 

Friday nights rarely disappoint on the grassroots circuit, and this week was no exception. Several familiar names were back in the winner's circle, while a handful of outstanding performances stole the headlines across the South West.

Joe Bagguley Ends Shaun Vernall's Charge

The biggest story of the evening came at Vault 18.0 @ Saintbridge Sports Club, Gloucester.

Ahead of the tournament, Shaun Vernall looked the man to beat after another excellent run of form. He certainly lived up to the billing early on, producing a magnificent 107.36 average before reaching the latter stages.

But it was Joe Bagguley who had the final say.

After firing successive 103.66, 100.20 and 93.94 averages, Joe defeated Andy Hammond in the final to lift the title, capping one of the finest performances of the evening. It was a statement victory against one of the strongest Friday night fields of recent weeks.

Andy Steed Continues His Excellent Summer

Over in Taunton, Andy Steed added another Vault title to an already impressive season.

He defeated Steven Rees in the final and once again showed why he remains one of the most consistent performers in the region, producing a best average of 91.65 during another successful evening.

With another trophy added to the cabinet, Andy's excellent run of form continues.

Jamie Kay Dominates in Bodmin

At St Breward AFC & Social Club, Jamie Kay enjoyed one of the performances of the night.

His route to the title included four averages above 93, finishing with a commanding victory over Joshua Meneer in the final. That level of consistency made him one of Friday's standout champions.

Robbie Roy Wins in Yeovil

The Friday Vault at Bullets Sports Bar, Yeovil produced another competitive evening.

Robbie Roy lifted the title after defeating Daren Field in the final, while Jim Chappell's 93.94 average and Adam Kingsnorth's 95.00 showed just how competitive the standard was throughout the night.

Liam Blakeley Comes Through in Dorchester

The Dorchester Vault may have been one of the smaller fields of the evening, but it still produced quality darts.

Liam Blakeley defeated Matt Yarrow in the final, although Matt recorded the highest average of the event with 93.94, underlining just how closely contested the tournament proved to be.

Logun Godbeer Adds Another Title

The Worle Summer Open saw another impressive performance from one of the area's brightest young talents.

Logun Godbeer defeated Adrian Wood in the final after another excellent evening. Adrian produced the highest average of the tournament at 92.02, but Logun once again found a way to get over the finishing line and collect another title.

Performance of the Day

There were several outstanding displays across Friday's action, but Joe Bagguley's performance at Saintbridge stands out.

Not only did he produce three ton-plus averages, but he also negotiated one of the toughest fields of the evening to claim the title. Meanwhile, Shaun Vernall's superb 107.36 average served as another reminder of the incredible standard currently being produced on the South West circuit.

Congratulations to all of Friday night's winners, and good luck to everyone competing over the rest of the weekend.

Yesterday's Results Round-Up – Thursday 16 July 2026

 

Thursday night was another busy one for the grassroots game, with 46 tournaments added to the Q4QS database. Across the South West there were plenty of familiar names collecting titles, while several players produced outstanding performances on another action-packed evening.

Josh McCarthy Continues His Winning Form

One of the standout stories came at The Carlton Club, Stroud, where Josh McCarthy added yet another Vault 18 title to his growing collection.

Josh defeated Paul Meyer in a closely fought final and once again showed why he remains one of the form players in the region. Averaging over 91 in the final, he continued the consistency that has made him one of the toughest opponents on the South West circuit.

Andy Steed Back on Top

At the rearranged Vault 18 at Stalbridge RBL, Andy Steed claimed another title after defeating Callum Harrison in the final.

Andy produced a superb 92.02 average during the evening and once again demonstrated the quality that has kept him among the leading performers in the Q4QS rankings throughout 2026.

Henry Cooper Triumphs in Yeovil

The Yeovil Labour Club hosted another competitive Vault 18, with Henry Cooper lifting the trophy after overcoming Steve Donohue.

Henry impressed throughout the evening, producing multiple 90+ averages and finishing strongly to secure another excellent title.

Robbie Long Returns to Winning Ways

The weekly Hangar 61 Thursday Night Round Robin once again delivered a highly competitive field.

Robbie Long defeated Martyn Freeman in the final after both players enjoyed excellent evenings. Martyn recorded the night's highest average at 93.94, while Robbie responded with an 88.06 average in the final to seal the title.

Miles O'Toole and Mark Jennings also enjoyed strong runs to the latter stages.

Jamie Shovelton Wins at DartAsylum

Another quality field assembled for the Thursday Night Round Robin at DartAsylum HQ.

Jamie Shovelton emerged victorious after beating Ashton Brown in the final. Although Ashton narrowly missed out on the title, he produced some of the best darts of the evening, recording three averages above 91 during another impressive run.

Morgan Fowler Keeps Momentum Going

Morgan Fowler continued his recent excellent form by winning the Purton Red House Under 70 Round Robin.

His victory over Dillon Moran in the final was built on another consistent night's scoring, while Dave Legg posted the event's highest average with an impressive 91.09.

Performance of the Day

There were several outstanding performances across Thursday's tournaments, but Andy Steed, Josh McCarthy and Henry Cooper all continued their excellent recent form with another title.

Martyn Freeman's 93.94 average at Hangar 61 and Ashton Brown's scoring display at DartAsylum also deserve special mention despite both falling just short in their respective finals.

Congratulations to all of Thursday night's winners, and good luck to everyone back on the oche over the weekend.

Who Can Stop Them? South West's Hottest Winning Streaks

Winning one or two matches is always satisfying, but putting together ten consecutive victories is something altogether different.

As part of the Q4QS rankings, I thought I'd take a look at the players within a 50-mile radius of Bath who currently boast a perfect 10 wins and 0 defeats in their last ten matches. To qualify, players must have competed in at least six events, ensuring the list rewards sustained form rather than one exceptional evening.

At the top of the list is Lee Evans, whose recent form has been nothing short of outstanding. Ten straight victories have helped him maintain an excellent standard, and he heads into his next event as one of the region's form players.

Just behind him is Robbie Martin, another player who has been quietly putting together a superb run. Consistency has been the key, and ten wins on the bounce is never easy regardless of the opposition.

The list also includes several familiar names from the South West darts scene. Kieran Smith, Dean Brown, Liam Cook, Andy Steed, David Farmer, Danny Humphries and C-Jay Pipe have all reached double figures without tasting defeat in their last ten matches.

Some of these players have achieved their runs over dozens, or even hundreds, of matches played this season, making the achievement even more impressive.

Current 10 Match Winning Streaks (Minimum 6 Events)

Rank	Player
1	Lee Evans
2	Robbie Martin
3	Kieran Smith
4	Dean Brown
5	Liam Cook
6	Andy Steed
7	David Farmer
8	Danny Humphries
9	C-Jay Pipe

One defeat is all it takes for a player to disappear from this list, while one more victory extends their streak even further. That makes it one of the most dynamic rankings on Q4QS, with changes possible every single tournament night.

The big question is...

Who will be the first to extend their streak? And perhaps more importantly... who will be the player to end it?

Yesterday's Results Round-Up – 13 July 2026

 

Monday night saw another busy evening across the grassroots darts scene, with more than 30 tournaments added to the Q4QS database. As always, I'm concentrating mainly on the South West, where there were plenty of familiar names collecting titles and producing impressive performances.

Josh McCarthy Continues His Fine Form

The standout performance came at Vault 18.0 @ North Star Club, Calne, where Josh McCarthy continued his excellent run of form.

Josh defeated Mitch McCarthy in the final to collect another Vault title, producing the day's highest average at the venue with a superb 91.34 average during his semi-final victory over Cori Wiltshire.

Mitch McCarthy continued his own excellent spell by reaching another final, while Cori Wiltshire impressed with a 91.09 average of his own and Michael Davies also fired in an excellent 87.57 average.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to look beyond Josh whenever he enters a local Vault event.

Andy Steed Back in the Winner's Circle

Over in Paignton, Andy Steed claimed the title after overcoming Charlie Wiles in the final.

Andy produced one of the performances of the day with a 93.94 average and once again demonstrated why he remains one of the strongest players in the South West. Charlie Wiles also enjoyed an excellent evening to reach the final, while Richie Blaynee and Leigh Bowman both posted averages above 85.

Kian Gover Triumphs in Barnstaple

The Barnstaple Vault produced another competitive field with Kian Gover lifting the trophy after defeating Zac Sanders in the final.

David Yeaman recorded the highest average of the night with an excellent 91.09, while Zac Sanders won eight matches during the evening before narrowly missing out on the title.

Martin Haines Wins in Salisbury

The Stratford Social Club in Salisbury produced another quality Monday night tournament.

Martin Haines edged past Stephen Lawrence in a close final, while Ashley Melvin was arguably the standout scorer on the night with several averages over 80, including a best of 90.51.

David Farmer Takes Minehead Honours

Minehead's Vault also produced some excellent darts as David Farmer lifted the title with victory over Jack Walker.

Taylor Foster posted the highest average of the evening at 96.97 before Farmer eventually took the tournament with several excellent displays of his own.

Junior Darts Continues to Flourish

It was another encouraging night for the JDC.

• Logun Godbeer won at Highbridge after beating Tai Anderson in the final.
• Zachary Petty claimed victory in Salisbury.
• Kian Hopkins came out on top in Milton Keynes.

The standard being produced by the next generation continues to impress, with Logun Godbeer and Zachary Petty both recording excellent 85.89 averages.

Monday Round Robin

At Clandown, Darren Cox enjoyed an excellent evening to defeat Garreth Peat in the final. Darren produced an 85.89 average during his successful run and finished the night with seven victories.

Performance of the Day

Although there were several outstanding performances across the country, Josh McCarthy once again strengthened his position as one of the form players in the South West with another Vault title, while Andy Steed's return to winning ways in Paignton was another notable result.

Congratulations to all of Monday's winners, and good luck to everyone back on the oche over the coming days.

Introducing the 2026 South West Vault Finals Order of Merit

Over the course of 2026 I'm going to be keeping track of a brand-new statistic – the South West Vault Finals Order of Merit.

The idea is simple. Instead of rewarding players for entering lots of tournaments, this table rewards those who consistently perform when it matters most: the knockout stages of the biggest Vault events across the South West.

Every Vault event held during 2026 will contribute towards the table, with players earning points based on how far they progress.

Points System

🏆 Winner – 5 points

🥈 Runner-up – 4 points

🥉 Semi-final – 3 points

Quarter-final – 2 points

Last 16 – 1 point

The aim is to recognise consistency in high-quality competitions. A player who regularly reaches quarter-finals and semi-finals could finish above someone who wins one event but doesn't feature again.

After the opening three Vault events (Vaults 15, 16 and 17), the standings are already taking shape.

Rank	Player	Points
1	Jamie Kay	8
=2	Andy Steed	7
=2	Josh McCarthy	7
4	Neil Meneer	6
=5	Danny Humphries	5
=5	Henry Cooper	5
=5	Ashton Brown	5

One of the early stories is Jamie Kay, who tops the table without winning a Vault. Two semi-final appearances and a quarter-final have rewarded consistency, while Josh McCarthy, Henry Cooper and Ashton Brown have all picked up maximum points by winning a Vault event.

As more Vault competitions take place during the year, I'll continue updating the table to see who really is the standout performer across the South West's premier local events.

It should make for an interesting race throughout the season.
