Four more match days re­main in the T&T Darts As­so­ci­a­tion (TT­DA) Dou­ble In/Dou­ble Out league of darts

E-Z Lines are 12 points clear at the top af­ter de­feat­ing fifth-placed Drifters 7-3. It was a very dom­i­nat­ing dis­play by the league lead­ers. E-Z Lines were 3-1 up at one point then 6-1 but drifters were able to save face clinch­ing the two re­main­ing sin­gles.

E-Z Lines can of­fi­cial­ly be crowned cham­pi­ons de­pend­ing on their clash against D.O.G.S. which was sched­uled for last night. D.O.G.S. are tight­en­ing their grip on the sec­ond spot and hop­ing to put some pres­sure on the lead­ers af­ter a 6-4 win over fourth-place Pub House Pi­rates.

Lestor Legall of D.O.G.S. is look­ing very sharp af­ter scor­ing two 180s dur­ing the con­test one in his sin­gles match and one in the fi­nal group game, this form would be great­ly re­ceived as Legall is a mem­ber of the na­tion­al team set to trav­el to Ja­maica this Ju­ly for the Caribbean Cup of Darts. The pi­rates did bat­tle all the way through the match but the sin­gles round is where D.O.G.S. pulled away to gain a vi­tal vic­to­ry.

The B Di­vi­sion re­mains a tight race and will most like­ly re­main that way to the end. League lead­ers Scor­pi­ons bounced back from their match­day 11 de­feat to see off bot­tom-of-the-ta­ble, Ran­dom Squad, 7-3.

Bul­lz I dropped vi­tal points against CB Shoot­ers los­ing 6-4. The Shoot­ers start­ed the tie very strong lead­ing 4-1 at one stage, Bul­lz I man­aged to win three straight sin­gles in what looked like a feisty come­back, how­ev­er, the Shoot­ers held on to get over the line.

Bul­lz I re­main in sec­ond and the Shoot­ers re­main fifth. Shang­hai Bulls are up to third af­ter a con­vinc­ing vic­to­ry over sev­enth-place Top Shot. At 5-0 up the Bulls were look­ing like­ly to white­wash their op­po­nents but Top Shot was able to win two legs out of the five-match sin­gles round to save a bit of face but it was not enough to stop the Bulls from win­ning 8-2. Bull­dogs con­tin­ue their im­pres­sive run of form with an­oth­er fine vic­to­ry over the tricky Sea Wolves.

Bull­dogs were 3-0 up at one stage look­ing sharp but Sea Wolves did well to pull it back to 3-3 forc­ing Bull­dogs to dig deep and hold on for a 6-4 win which sees them in fourth place and the Sea Wolves re­main sixth. Roger Awah of the Bull­dogs checked out the high­est fin­ish of the evening 105 (triple 19, sin­gle 10, dou­ble 19).

Match-day 12 is set to be very ex­cit­ing as first takes on sec­ond in A di­vi­sion ac­tion as E-Z Lines take on D.O.G.S. In the B di­vi­sion Bul­lz I take on Shang­hai Bulls, in the re­verse fix­ture it end­ed in a draw both teams need a big win in or­der to catch Scor­pi­ons and se­cure pro­mo­tion. The ac­tion takes place at the home of darts Kos­mos Mem­bers Club POS on Tues­day (April 23).

All eyes are set on Ja­maica as the na­tion­al team con­tin­ues to pre­pare for the de­fence of the Caribbean Cup of Darts in Ju­ly. Na­tion­al men’s coach Adam Da Cos­ta is very hap­py with the train­ing ses­sions so far and will re­lease the of­fi­cial team list very soon. The TT­DA is still look­ing for co-op­er­ate part­ners to team up with to make this trip a suc­cess­ful one.
