DART: 10 dart check out by McNeill

He enhanced that reputation further last week when he threw a superb 10-dart leg playing for Kelly's Inn hitting 180, 140, 131 then finishing brilliantly with a bullseye.

It was an excellent game of darts by Jason and something that is going to be difficult to beat or even equal by any other player this year.

It helped his side to a 5-3 win over Floyd's B. They took the first game through B Quinn, but the visitors fought back with W Bradley and J Johnston winning the next two games.

A Hayter (140,100) then levelled the game beating A Muholland (100) before L Stirling (100,140) put the visitors back in front. Next up for Kellys was the young Jason McNeill (10 darts, 180,140,131,bull) who made short work of J Doey (100) to level the game once more.

M Quinn (100,122) beatt S Collins (100,101) to put the home team 4-3 up going into the final game where S Gibson saw off T Dorrans (101,140) to give Kelly's the victory.

RBL travelled to Bertha's still looking for their first win and G Watton (116 finish) beat D Bowman (140,121) to put the visitors 1-0 up. R Kane (180,100) rode his luck getting the better of an unlucky I Sinclair (134) to make it 2-0.
