August 2021 Darts Update
Monday 2 Aug, 2021
July is the month the National Dart’s Tournament is held. Our contingent was only two players: Kayden Milne and Jordan Whyte. As the Nationals were in Pukekohe and the Covid cancellations were always in the air, our usually large contingent stayed at home.
Kayden Milne won the National Youth Title and Kayden and Jordan acquitted themselves well with 5th equal in the Men’s Pairs. They were beaten by the eventual winners. Kayden was 9th equal in the Men’s Singles.
The Scott Special Pairs was won by Lance Odgers and Elliot Hitchings with Kayden and Jordan coming in second.
We had nine players selected in the recent trip to the Central Regions Tournament in Timaru, which Canterbury won.
Clubs NZ held a ranking tournament in Timaru with Vernaleigh, Sarah, Maata, Lucas and Raewyn all acquitting themselves very well. Unfortunately, this was when we had the floods in South Canterbury, so their stay became a long one as they were unable to get back to Christchurch.
