The highest checkout of the week among a fantastic four ton plus checkouts in the week was from the dangerous Kerry Nicholl (Macons) with a superb 140 checkout which already puts him in contention for highest checkout in the league campaign even after two weeks.

There were many high checkouts last Thursday night and these came from Paddy McElhinney (Rising Sun A) 121 and 52; James Bonham (Calablanca) 104; Steven Doherty (Rising Sun A) 100 and 88; Brendan McGinnis (Donaghys A) 91; Peter Craig (Happy Landing) 78; Michael McCloskey (Rising Sun A) 70; Ronan McKinney (Rising Sun B) 70; Martin McCormick (Longfield B) 63; Ken McCarter (Happy Landing) 56; Noel Pyper (Longfield A) 56; Sean Murray (Calablanca) 56; Adrian Devine (Macons) 55.

Surprisingly there were no recorded maximum scores in week two and only one from week one but surely this will change soon.

The least darts of the week came from the always consistent James Bonham (Calablanca) with a solid 15 darts.
