A Very Merry Airlie Beach Darts

Airlie Beach Darts hosted three of the four scheduled qualifying finals on Sunday morning at Mika Live BBQ & Bar.

The first match of the day was the latest instalment between Andy Peel and Ross Gallichan. Both players are familiar with each other’s games; regular matches between the pair go back to the club’s formation.

Andy took the first set by three legs to one, and the second set by three legs to two, claiming the match by two sets to nil.

In the second match, Lorraine Woods defeated Dick O’Hara by two sets to one.

Lorraine advances to next week’s quarter finals where interestingly there’s a slight chance she could be drawn out to play her husband Jamie, who also happens to be the defending Champion.

In the final match of the day, Kameron Reason defeated Gary Robbie by two sets to nil with a scoreline of 3/2, 3/2. It was a good effort by Gary on the day, who unfortunately came up short.

Unlucky to the defeated players on the day, and the club thanks them for taking part. They hope to see all players grand final on Sunday, December 4.

Well done to the winners who now March on to the Quarter Finals next weekend.

The Xmas Open is sponsored by Dyson Automotive, thank you for your support.
