Steve Wragg became Marston Moor Villages Darts League doubles board individual champion in record style.

He beat his Lord Collingwood team-mate Andy Oliver 3-1 in the final.

Showing the form that had won him the Most Tons Scored trophy, Wragg included four tons in the first three legs of the final to lead 2-1.

He then turned up the power to take the title with a 17 dart leg which included a 120 followed by two tons, a league record for the fastest game.

Marston Moor Villages Darts League still play on the doubles board, in which scoring a hundred takes great accuracy, so Wragg's 17-darter was a great achievement.

Wragg beat Royal Oak's Andy Carter 2-0 in the semi-finals, while Oliver beat his team colleague and defending champion Gary Stead.

Defending champions Wragg and Stead lost in the pairs final to Mick Collins (Alice Hawthorne) and his brother John Collins (Tankard), who snatched the title with a first dart double top finish.

In the pairs semi-finals Wragg and Stead beat their team colleagues Andy Oliver and Keith Slater, while the Collins brothers beat Richard Foster and Les Buckby (Sun Inn) 2-0.

League founder member and former league secretary Les Hornby presented the season's trophies.

David Langley of Metro Rod (York) constructed the new stage and dartboard surround.

A minute's silence was observed in memory of Colin Steele, a long-time member of the darts and dominoes league, who died the week prior to the finals.

Newcomers Bay Horse moved to top place in division two of York White Rose Ladies Darts League after seeing off veteran side Nags Head.

Ellen Graham hit a 21 darter, which was followed by a 25 darter from Angela Forth to put Bay Horse into an unbeatable 5-0 lead. Nags' Joanne Heaton won the next game, but then Karrol Watkinson (134,105) stepped up to the oche to seal a great win for the Murton side.

Palace kept in touch thanks to another lop-sided scoreline at home to Huntington, Sue Smith saving the village side from a whitewash.

Coach (Tadcaster) skipper Jill Clapham clinched a 4-3 win over Tankard.

Yvonne Broadhead's two tons helped Collingwood beat Alice, while Fulford Conservatives were too strong for Tramways, Jackie Barnett securing a 5-2 result.

New York shrugged off a determined Deramore side to move top of division one.

Two great games by Dawn Green and skipper Carole Coundon were not enough to stop newly-promoted Magnet losing narrowly to Institute, whose Denise Fahey clinched victory.

Burton's Tracey Pragnell, Joy Franks and Olive Thompson won the last three singles games for victory against Post.

Karen Reasbeck's win took Fulfordgate past Clarence. Crescent's Elsie Blackburn hit a 24 darter to inspire her team to a 4-3 win against Bowling.

New Earswick have withdrawn from division two. All scheduled fixtures against them for the rest of the season are to be treated as free weeks.
