It was held last Friday night in the Haven Club and turned out to be a special night for Clive Smitham of the Vine A team.
After last winning the league’s singles title back in 1976 – some 42 years ago – he rolled back the clock to repeat the feat on the night.
Smitham met and defeated Scanner Bone of the Haven Club in the semis 3-1 to line up a final appearance against David Addison of Haven, who won his semi-final 3-1 over Brian Laverick.
Clive won the final 4-2 to complete this very special double.
In the doubles semi-finals Scanner and David Addison defeated Brian Laverick and Mark Todhunter 3-1.
In the other semi-final John Pilkington and Kieran Timmins (HARLFC) beat Billy Morgan and Tobias McAteer (St Begh’s) 3-1.
The final was a close match until the fifth game where the better darts from the Haven pair proved too good on the night and they went on to win 4-2.
There were six maximum 180s recorded on the night from Kieran Timmins (2), David Addison, John Pilkington, Scanner Bone and Clive Smitham.
