The format of an evening will be as follows:

Summer Cup 2013

We are now taking entries for this years Summer Cup competition which will start on Wednesday 19th June 2013. The competition will be played between June - August. This will allow for a short break before the next winter league season starts in September.

The competition will be played in the same format as previous years with teams playing home and away fixtures with the possibility of a knockout stage later depending on numbers.

All games will be best of 9 legs.

• 3 legs of darts pairs - 701 start
• 3 legs of darts singles - 501 start
• 3 legs of dominoes pairs - 61 holes

A player can play one game of each of the 3 disciplines, so a minimum of 6 players are required to form a team.

Some people would have noticed the year date errors on the forms I handed out at Fridays presentation, these have been updated in the downloadable versions!

I look forward to seeing you over the Summer.
