Youngsters take plaudits in QWDL

Fri, 16 Dec 2011 00:10:00 +0000

Youngsters Eddie Le Bailly jnr & Joe De Sousa made the headlines in the Quants Winter Darts League on Monday.

Eddie (16) who made his first Jersey appearance in this years Inter-Insular is recognised as one of the Islands top players even at such a young age. Anyone who may have doubted this claim may have to reconsider after his performances in recent weeks.

Following on from a fantastic maximum 170 check out for the Mont Felard against the Bagot "A" on the 21st November he proved it was no fluke by doing it again on Monday night against the Early Grey also hitting a 129 checkout and 15 dart leg in the match.

Also making the headlines was 11 year old Joe De Sousa who secured his first win of the season for the Bagot "A" against the Temple, hitting a 180 and a 140 in due course. An excellent effort for young Joe who seems to be getting over the effect of being one the youngest players ever known to suffer Dartitis.
