Yesterday’s Darts Results: Steve West Hits 105.44 as Pete Hughes, Andy Steed & Joe Quiney Star – 15 September 2026

Tuesday was another huge night for grassroots darts, with 50 tournaments added to the Q4QS database.

And there was plenty to pick out from the South and South West.

Pete Hughes produced the biggest local average of the night with a superb 104.41 at Bretforton Sports Club, while Robbie Martin hit 104.16 in Poole. There were tournament victories for Andy Steed in Tiverton, Joe Quiney in Evesham, Jack Walker in Bristol, Will Jackson in Gloucester and Clare Bywater in Leominster.

Further east, Steve West produced the biggest number anywhere in Tuesday's results — 105.44 at Fareham Social Club — and then completed an excellent night by winning the tournament.

Hughes goes big – but Quiney takes the title

Bretforton Sports Club produced one of the most interesting tournaments of the night.

Pete Hughes hit a 104.41 average in a 2–1 victory over Andy Hammond, who averaged an impressive 93.32 himself.

Hughes also recorded an 85.12 later in the competition, while Danny Lauby reached 91.09.

But it was Joe Quiney who emerged with the title.

Quiney recorded seven victories and beat Vince Tipple 3–2 in the final, having also produced an 88.41 during his run. Lauby finished with six wins and Shaun Vernall with five.

So Hughes takes the performance headline from Evesham, but Quiney takes the trophy.

Andy Steed wins in Tiverton

There was another strong night for Andy Steed, this time at Elmore Football Club in Tiverton.

Dave Fisher produced the highest average of the tournament at 96.97, with Phil Bisset reaching 93.94.

Steed wasn't far behind with a 91.09, but once again it was the tournament run that mattered.

Steed and Fisher both collected seven victories before meeting in the final, where Steed won 3–0 to take another Vault title.

Robbie Martin fires 104.16 in Poole

Robbie Martin was very close to adding another title to his recent run.

At The Newtown in Poole, Martin produced a superb 104.16 average, followed by 93.94 and 88.41 performances.

He reached the final with seven wins but was denied the title by Matt Yarrow, who won the deciding match 3–2.

Yarrow also finished with seven victories and produced an 89.37 in the final itself.

For Martin, though, another 100+ average is a notable addition to his recent Q4QS record.

Jack Walker wins in Bristol

At Bessellscotts in Bristol, Jack Walker dominated the results.

Walker recorded seven victories and occupied all five places in the event's list of leading averages, headed by 73.32.

He then completed the night with a 3–0 final victory over Matt Cooper.

It wasn't one of Tuesday's highest-scoring tournaments, but from a results perspective Walker couldn't have done much more.

Will Jackson takes Gloucester title

At Widden Rugby Club in Gloucester, Will Jackson produced an eight-win tournament run.

James Mann recorded the highest average at 88.41, ahead of Todd Marfell on 83.50 and Martin Taylor on 81.24.

Jackson's best was 78.38, but he progressed all the way through the competition before beating Daniel Jeffrey 3–0 in the final.

Again, a good example of why the highest average and the tournament winner often tell two different stories.

Clare Bywater dominates in Leominster

The WADC Vault at Shooters Bar in Leominster belonged to Clare Bywater.

Bywater recorded the tournament's three highest averages — 66.80, 62.63 and 58.56 — and finished with five victories.

She then beat Karrina Barnes 3–0 in the final to complete an impressive tournament.

With the WADC events now forming part of these daily reports, performances like this will also start building a much clearer picture of the women's grassroots game.

Dani Kearns wins WADC Vault in Swindon

There was another WADC winner at Wiltshire Darts House.

Dani Kearns produced the tournament's highest average of 75.15, collected six victories and defeated Chris Savvery 2–1 in the final.

Savvery also had a strong event, recording averages of 68.32 and 66.70 on the way to four victories.

Steve West tops the entire night

Although my daily coverage remains weighted towards the South and South West, the national data produced an outstanding performance at Fareham.

Steve West averaged 105.44 in the final itself, beating Lloyd Walker 3–1.

West also hit 100.20 earlier in the competition and finished with eight victories.

Walker played his part in a high-quality final too, averaging 99.68, having previously recorded a 94.50 and 90.18.

That makes West's 105.44 the highest individual average across all 50 tournaments in Tuesday's report.

Plenty more 100+ darts

It wasn't only West and Hughes breaking three figures.

James Hubbard hit 104.86 at Hethersett, Robbie Martin produced 104.16 in Poole, Jack Main reached 103.66, and Stephen Cake hit 102.48 at Lindsay Constitutional Club in Wales.

Keegan Brown, Fin Lowe and several others also reached 100.20.

That's a pretty serious collection of numbers for one Tuesday night of largely grassroots competition.

Another 50 tournaments into Q4QS

The sheer volume is becoming almost as interesting as the individual performances.

Another 50 tournaments means another substantial batch of matches feeding into the Q4QS database — adding to player records, form, head-to-heads, venue histories and the wider rankings picture.

For me, Tuesday's local headlines are Pete Hughes' 104.41, Robbie Martin's 104.16 and titles for Andy Steed, Joe Quiney, Jack Walker, Will Jackson and Clare Bywater.

But the performance of the entire results set belongs to Steve West: 105.44, eight wins and the Fareham title.

Yesterday’s Darts Results South and South West – Friday 14 August 2026

 

Friday brought another busy night of grassroots darts, with 40 tournaments added to the Q4QS database. There was plenty happening across the South West in particular, with titles in Taunton, Gloucester, Portishead, Sturminster and Evesham, while several eye-catching averages were recorded around the country.

The performance of the night came from C-Jay Pipe in Taunton, while Ricky King continued his excellent week and there were victories for Shaun Vernall, Steve Boundy and Pete Hughes.

C-Jay Pipe produces a huge night in Taunton

The standout performance came at Pegasus 68 Club in Taunton, where C-Jay Pipe was in superb form.

Pipe won all eight of his recorded matches and defeated Paul Gardiner 3–0 in the final, but it was the level of his scoring that really caught the eye.

He produced a 107.36 average against John Ellis, followed that with a 102.48 in the final, and also recorded a 93.94 during his run.

The 107.36 was the highest individual average recorded across all 40 tournaments on Friday.

That's a serious night's work.

Ricky King continues his strong run

Another player enjoying a particularly good spell is Ricky King.

Having won at The Kings Arms in Wallisdown on Thursday, King followed it up with another title on Friday at Sturminster Football Club.

He defeated Callum Harrison 3–0 in the final, having earlier produced averages of 93.94 and 93.52, the latter coming in a 3–1 win over Jordan Cluskey.

Cluskey produced the biggest average of the tournament with an excellent 100.20, but it was King who took the title with eight wins on the night.

Back-to-back titles across two different venues makes King one of the standout performers of the last couple of days.

Vernall takes the Saintbridge title

At Saintbridge Sports Club in Gloucester, Shaun Vernall took the honours with a 3–1 final victory over Rory Pearce.

Vernall also produced an 85.50 during the knockout stages, while James Smith recorded an excellent 95.88, the highest average of the tournament.

Saintbridge continues to produce competitive fields and this was another strong night of darts in Gloucester.

Boundy wins in Portishead

There was another South West victory at Portishead Workmen's, where Steve Boundy came through to take the Friday title.

Boundy defeated Daniel Kear 3–2 in the final and finished the competition with seven wins.

Brogan Bayford produced the best average of the tournament with an 88.41, while finalist Kear hit an 83.50.

Pete Hughes wins again at Bengeworth

Pete Hughes is another name that keeps appearing in these roundups.

After winning at The Cue Corner in Worcester on Thursday, Hughes made it two titles in two days, this time at The Bengeworth in Evesham.

He beat Richard Coombes 3–2 in the final, while Steve Sewell produced the evening's highest average at the venue with a 93.38. Coombes also enjoyed an impressive night, recording seven wins and an 88.41 along the way.

Like Ricky King, Hughes is putting together a very impressive few days.

More ton-plus averages

Pipe's 107.36 led the way, but he certainly wasn't alone in breaking three figures.

Llew Bevan recorded a 103.66 at Min-Y-Ddol in Aberystwyth, while Timothy Jones matched that 103.66 at Briton Ferry.

Jordan Cluskey, Steve Dennett and Gary Davies all recorded 100.20 averages, while Pipe himself had his second ton-plus performance of the evening with 102.48.

Jane Price takes the WADC title

The WADC Vault at The Bengeworth went to Jane Price, who defeated Tammy Jones 3–1 in the final.

Price recorded five wins during the tournament and produced her best average of the competition in the final, hitting 65.08.

There was also some impressive WADC action at Briton Ferry, where Eve Watson produced a 91.09 average – a particularly eye-catching performance from Friday's women's events.

Junior action continues

The JDC VOLTS Series continued at the Simeon Arms in Ryde, where Mitchel Hunt defeated Brendan O'Reilly 3–1 in the final.

Hunt recorded seven victories on his way to the title, while Archie Isaacson produced the tournament's best recorded average at 81.24.

Plenty more winners

There were plenty of other notable results across Friday.

Alec Small produced a 96.97 on his way to victory at Wattsville National Club, Kyle Weatherley won at Bushey with a best of 95.94, while Shane Turner, Chris Connell, Jamie Grant, Stephen Cake, Logan Anderson, Matt Dennant and Callum Grealis were among the other Vault winners recorded during the evening.

But from a South West perspective, Friday belonged particularly to C-Jay Pipe. An eight-win title run featuring averages of 107.36, 102.48 and 93.94 is an outstanding set of numbers and comfortably earns the headline from another packed night of grassroots darts.

Who’s Hot in South West Darts? The Q4QS Recent Form Top 100

 

Who are the most in-form darts players across the South West right now?

The latest Q4QS data gives us an interesting answer – and perhaps more importantly, shows just how many different types of player can put together a sustained run of winning darts.

The Q4QS South West Recent Form Top 100 is based primarily on results across a player's last 20 recorded matches, rather than simply ranking players by their three-dart average.

The data covers qualifying players across Bristol, Bath, Gloucester, Taunton, Exeter, Plymouth, Tiverton, Swindon and Blandford Forum areas, with players required to have competed in at least six events.

More than 36,000 unique matches were scanned, with 642 players meeting the qualifying criteria.

And to even sneak into the Top 100 takes some doing.

Every player on this list has won at least 14 of their last 20 matches.

Brown Leads – But He Has Company

At the top is Ashton Brown, whose recent record stands at a remarkable 19 wins from 20 matches.

Brown's position is particularly impressive because this is anything but a small sample. The Q4QS database has 237 matches for him across 30 events, with 16 titles recorded.

But he isn't alone on 19-1.

Henry Cooper, Andy Steed, Scott Mc and Mitchell Atkins have all also won 19 of their most recent 20 recorded matches.

And already, that group demonstrates what makes this table so interesting.

Cooper is averaging 86.39, while Atkins is at 64.57 – yet both have produced exactly the same 19-1 recent record.

Mitchell Atkins Flying the Flag for the Juniors

Atkins is particularly noteworthy because his main competition in the data comes through the Junior Darts Corporation.

He has been a regular JDC competitor and has already enjoyed tournament success, while also competing in events such as the England Youth Grand Prix.

So fifth place in a form table covering players from across the South West isn't simply another good statistic – it's an indication of how competitive some of the region's emerging junior players already are.

And Atkins isn't the only junior to appear.

Warren Rixon sits 15th after winning 18 of his last 20, while Jacob Godber is 47th, Joseph Lauridsen 83rd, Aaron Rea 85th and Finley Bird 90th.

Rixon's numbers are particularly striking. He has seven titles from only eight qualifying events in this dataset and has been one of the leading performers in the South West JDC Volts competition.

It is another reminder that the grassroots picture isn't simply about established adult open players. Some of the best current winning records belong to the next generation.

Karl Aldom – Why Form Isn't All About Huge Averages

Perhaps my favourite story in the whole table is Karl Aldom at number 17.

Aldom plays much of his darts in Under-55 average competitions at DartAsylum, so comparing his average directly with somebody regularly competing in high-level open tournaments wouldn't tell us very much.

What does tell us something is this:

18 wins from his last 20 matches.

Aldom's recorded average is 48.62, but he has four titles and 170 matches in the database across 28 events.

That's exactly why looking beyond averages can be worthwhile.

You don't need to be averaging 90 or 100 to be playing extremely well relative to the level at which you compete.

Ultimately, darts is about winning matches – and Aldom has been doing plenty of that.

Different Levels, Same Result

There are examples throughout the rankings.

Jane Price is 16th with an 18-2 record and a 52.08 average.

Aldom follows at 17th averaging 48.62.

At the other end of the spectrum, Henry Cooper has exactly one defeat in 20 while averaging 86.39.

Different competitions. Different standards. Different averages.

But lots of winning darts.

That is one of the reasons I think grassroots statistics need context rather than simply publishing a list of averages.

Who Is Improving Fastest?

Another fascinating column in the Q4QS data compares a player's most recent 50 legs with the previous 50.

And Joshua Lewis is the player who really leaps from the page.

Lewis is already 20th on recent form with a 17-3 record and an 80.50 average, but his improvement figure stands at +9.71.

That's a significant upward movement.

Other notable improvement figures among the Top 100 include:

• Ricky Harding: +8.16

• Luke Harding: +7.44

• Robbie Long: +7.08

• Leon Taylor: +6.74

• Danny Humphries: +6.24

• Johnny Haines: +6.10

• Robbie Roy: +5.46

Johnny Haines is particularly interesting. He is averaging 84.04, has won 16 of his last 20 and is simultaneously showing one of the biggest positive movements in the table.

That's someone whose numbers are worth watching.

The Established Winners Are Still There

The form table also contains plenty of familiar names.

Josh McCarthy might be only 58th on this particular measure, but "only" needs some context.

He's won 15 of his last 20 matches.

Across the wider database, McCarthy has 298 recorded matches, 43 events and an extraordinary 26 titles, alongside an 83.61 average.

Andy Steed has another outstanding long-term record: 22 titles from 44 events, while Steve Boundy has 17 titles, Shaun Vernall 17 and Ashton Brown 16.

This is where the Recent Form table should be viewed alongside the wider Q4QS numbers rather than replacing them.

A player can be 50th or 60th here and still be one of the strongest performers in the region.

You Need a 70% Win Rate Just to Make the List

Perhaps the statistic that best illustrates the strength of this Top 100 comes right at the bottom.

Joe Quiney is 95th.

Paul Lewis is 99th.

Martyn Freeman rounds out the Top 100.

All three have won 14 of their last 20 matches.

Quiney's recorded average is 73.07. Paul Lewis's is 50.58.

That's a difference of more than 22 points in average – yet their recent match records are identical at 14-6.

Again, that's why this isn't an averages ranking.

It's a ranking about winning darts matches.

More Than Just An Average

Perhaps that's the biggest takeaway from the first Q4QS South West Recent Form Top 100.

There are high-average established players.

There are prolific tournament winners.

There are rapidly improving players.

There are juniors beginning to make their mark.

There are players dominating restricted-average competitions.

And they can all appear on the same list because ultimately they have one thing in common:

They're winning.

As the Q4QS database continues to grow, these rankings should become even more interesting. Recent form can change quickly, which means today's Top 100 won't necessarily look anything like the next one.

And that might be the best reason of all to keep watching it.

Yesterday’s Darts Results – Vernall Wins Again, Leeming Impresses and Field Takes Yeovil Title

 

Friday brought another busy night of grassroots darts, with 37 tournaments added to the Q4QS database from 7 August.

Across the South West there were winners from Gloucester to Yeovil, Taunton, Bristol and Portishead, while some excellent individual performances gave us plenty to pick through.

Shaun Vernall continues his excellent run

One of the biggest stories came at Saintbridge Sports Club in Gloucester, where Shaun Vernall continued his impressive recent form.

Vernall came through the night to defeat Joe Bagguley 3-2 in the final, completing an eight-win tournament. He also produced an 86.42 average against Will Jackson and an 85.89 earlier in the competition.

Bagguley enjoyed another strong Saintbridge performance himself, winning seven matches on his way to the final, while Lee Bradley and Will Jackson recorded six victories apiece. Cameron Oram supplied the highest individual average at the venue with an excellent 88.41.

Leeming lands Bengeworth title

There was another impressive winner at The Bengeworth in Evesham, where Mitchell Leeming defeated Dave Honey 3-1 in the final.

Leeming produced one of the best South West performances of the night along the way, firing a 96.97 average, while he also recorded 88.41 and 84.86 during his run.

Joe Quiney was another player in excellent scoring form. He recorded a 93.84 in victory over Rhys Jackson and an 88.48 despite losing a close encounter with Leeming.

Leeming and Honey both finished the tournament with seven wins, with Quiney collecting five.

Daren Field comes through in Yeovil

At Bullets Sports Bar in Yeovil, it was Daren Field who took the honours after beating Robbie Roy 3-2 in the final.

Field recorded eight victories across the tournament and produced a superb 93.94 average during his run. Robbie Roy won six times on his way to the final, while Phil Bisset also recorded six victories.

It was another good example of the strength of these weekly Vault competitions, with Field combining the title with the standout individual performance of the tournament.

CJ Everrit wins at Hangar 61

Friday night's round robin at Hangar 61 ended with CJ Everrit defeating Joe Waters 3-1 in the final.

Everrit saved his best performance for the final, averaging 85.09 to take the title.

There was plenty of competition throughout the event, with Everrit, Waters, Arun Grewal and Leo Strick all recording four wins. Grewal also produced averages of 73.92 and 72.73 during the night.

Boundy takes the Portishead honours

After featuring in the Q4QS preview, Steve Boundy delivered at Portishead Workmen's Darts.

Boundy completed an eight-win tournament by beating Andy Darbon 3-0 in the final, producing an 81.98 average in the process.

Darbon's seven wins represented an excellent run of his own, while Josh Rose, Jack Collins and John Maggs each picked up five victories.

Spurdle wins in Taunton

Kieran Spurdle was the winner at Pegasus 68 Club in Taunton, defeating Leighton Cox 3-1 in the final.

Spurdle won six matches and produced several solid performances, including averages of 77.08 and 75.95.

Cox actually recorded the night's highest average at the venue – 85.08 – and joined Nigel Wills and Paul Gardiner on five victories.

More South West winners

There was also a title for Finley Bird at Bridgwater Darts Academy, where he defeated Alfie Salter 2-0 in the final. Finley and Tommy Climo both recorded five wins, while Alex Bird produced the competition's highest average of 62.83.

At Sturminster Football Club, Kevin Chase enjoyed an excellent evening. He beat James Wills 3-1 in the final, won six matches and occupied four of the top five recorded averages at the event, including a best of 77.08.

Some huge numbers further afield

Although the Q4QS focus remains primarily on the South West, there were a few performances elsewhere that were simply too good not to mention.

Andy Smith produced the highest average anywhere in Friday's data – a huge 109.98 – and followed it with a 107.36 during his title-winning run at The New Club in Wheatley.

Paul Rowley also broke the ton with 102.48 at The Church Wicketts, while Brian Dolman and Corey Milward both recorded 100.20 performances.

Another busy Friday for Q4QS
