NEWMARKET and District Tuesday Men's Pub League held their finals night at the Newmarket Palomino where the standard of darts was very high throughout.
In the team knockout, Exning White Horse met Burrough Green Bull.
The first two games were played as pairs with Matt Hardy and Simon Bewley (White Horse) taking on Phil Docking and Ryan Tripp.
The Bull took the first leg but Hardy and Bewley took the next two to win the first game.
Dave Nunn and Jay Ball then played Darren Smith and Andy Ling and The Bull won 2-0; Ling scoring 140 and 100 in the first leg to even things up.
The White Horse took the next four singles to win 5-1: Vince Alecock 2, Ryan Tripp 1, with Tripp on a 13-dart second leg win.
The result meant Carl Campion, Ian Hardy and Matt Hardy (White Horse) did not have to play their games against Andy Ling, Darren Smith and Mark Pollington.
Fours competition: Paul Jolly, Ray Dean, Keith Baldwin and Terry Pipe (The Boot) played Carlos Paramo, Andy Liggens, Tracey Dance and Louise Markham (Prince of Wales B). The Boot won with Terry Pipe getting out with double one on both legs.
Carousel pairs: Kevin McDonnell and Lawrence Page (The Boot) met Mark Skeen and Dave Woollard (Prince of Wales B).
The first singles leg was Page against Skeen, with Page taking the first leg.
McDonnell then took on Woollard who levelled it for the Prince.
The pair from the Prince then won the doubles leg. They also went on to win the next reverse singles leg to win 3-1.
Pairs competition: Andy Ling and Ryan Tripp (Burrough Green Bull) were against Paul Woor and Craig Fowler (Newmarket Five Bells).
The Bull pair got off to a flying start with three consecutive 100s and Tripp hit double 20 to take the first leg.
The pair from the Five Bells took the second scoring well but The Bull came back to take the third leg to win 2-1.
House champion: Ryan Tripp (Bull), in another final, this time he was up against last year's winner Adie Byford (Thurlow Cock).
Tripp took the first, Byford levelled but Tripp had another 13-dart leg to win.
Captains Cup: Once again the Bull Burrough Green were in a final.
This time Andy Ling was up against Chris Baldwin from Dullingham Boot.
Ling took the first leg but bust on 131 in the second to let Baldwin in.
The player from The Boot went on to take the second leg, both players scored well in the third, but Baldwin took the leg with double eight.
Individuals: This competition saw Ryan Tripp in his fourth final of the evening up against Simon Bewley (Exning White Horse).
Tripp had a 12-dart leg getting 140 and then 111 to win the first leg (60, 1, bullseye) and he did not let up in the second leg, scoring two 100s. Bewley also scored well with a first leg 140, and two 100s in the second.
