The hot streak con­tin­ues as Drifters re­main un­de­feat­ed af­ter four match­es.

Match-day four of the Na­tion­al 501 League of Darts took place on Tues­day (Feb­ru­ary 25) at No 36 New Street in Port-of-Spain..

Drifters took on Jus For Fun Vikings in what was a very one-sided con­test from the start as Drifters es­tab­lished an ear­ly 5-1 lead over their ri­vals in the com­pe­ti­tion host­ed by the T&T Darts As­soc­i­taion (TT­DA). There was a late surge by Jus For Fun; they were able to pick up two more wins but even­tu­al­ly lost the match 7-3. The Vikings sit in fourth place.

De Orig­i­nal Game Shot (DOGS) are one point be­hind Drifters in sec­ond place af­ter dis­patch­ing new­com­ers Sea Wolves 9-1. It was a com­mand­ing per­for­mance topped by the in­di­vid­ual bril­liance of Joshua Bal­four, record­ing a max­i­mum for his team—a 180, the high­est score one can pro­duce in one turn by plac­ing all three darts in the bed of the triple twen­ty.

E-Z Lines bounced back in style, de­feat­ing new­ly pro­mot­ed Scor­pi­ons 8-2. James Walk­lin was again the star of the evening, pro­duc­ing av­er­ages of 75, 76, and 88. The de­fend­ing cham­pi­ons sit in third.

In B Di­vi­sion ac­tion, Jus For Fun Snipers lead the pack af­ter a very hard-fought 7-3 win over a very tena­cious Bul­lz I; sev­en games out of the al­lot­ted ten went to de­ciders. The Snipers re­main un­de­feat­ed and per­fect with four wins from four. Pub House Pi­rates al­so re­main per­fect in the league af­ter a comefrom-be­hind win over Bull­dogs 7-3.

Bull­dogs won the open­ing match, but their lead was short-lived as the Pi­rates were able to swing the score in their favour 3-1. How­ev­er, Bull­dogs pulled a sur­prise and won the open­ing two sin­gles af­ter great show­ings from Justin Ed­wards and Goutam Heera­man, mak­ing the score 3-3. The Pi­rates showed their ex­pe­ri­ence and were able to win the four re­main­ing match­es to see out a vi­tal vic­to­ry, which keeps them close on the heels of Jus For Fun Snipers.

Round­ing off the top three is Shang­hai Bulls, pick­ing up their sec­ond win of the cam­paign with a 9-1 thrash­ing of Top Shot.

The ac­tion re­sumes on Tues­day (March 11), with a mouth-wa­ter­ing match-up be­tween Drifters and DOGS. A bat­tle of first ver­sus sec­ond, and it all takes place at 8.30 pm.
