Once again, the Belmont Sports & Recreation Club last weekend played host to a capacity crowd at this year’s Men’s State Teams Championships.
Sixteen Associations were represented by 33 x Teams who battled it out over the two days to see who would take home the coveted “Gold”. With the cream of WA’s darting talent in action, the standard was high with 154 x 180’s and 54 x 100+ pegs being thrown over the two days including a brilliant maximum check out of 170 thrown by Kwinana’s Ian Briggs.
Thank you to the Bookkeepers and the Ladies in the stats room.
