The standard of darts from start to finish was first class and at the end the four person team of Conrad Watson, Michael McCloskey, Sean McKinney and Paul Brown retained this trophy for the Rising Sun Bar.

The standard of darts from the first week when 21 teams entered was exceptional and it continued last Thursday night in the Sportsman Bar, Feeny.

Rising Sun had a fantastic 10-5 success over McKeevers in the first semi-final, while Riverside Bar had an equally impressive 10-3 win over Donaghys to book their place in the final.

However it was Rising Sun who produced some great darts to claim their title winning 10-2 in the final.
