MASA DART CLUB

Last weekend we held our annual presentation night and everyone throughly enjoyed themselves. Well done to all the winners and big thanks to our players. Family members, friends and guest's who made it a special evening.

We kicked things off with the Charity Chicken wing eating contest, which saw Keith " The wing king " George taking on defending Masa eating champ, James " The Stomach " Blair. James carved out and early lead and was never in an trouble of losing. Keith who was going up two weight Divisions, was outgunned and ultimately didnt have the legs for it
🍗🍗🍗🍗

The referee, Alex Aicken stopped the contest with 4 mins 32 seconds to go as Keith could no longer continue. The Stomach won by a TKO and now retires an 8 time knife & fork champion of the Masa.
Both lads were great sports and managed to raise £250 for the Children's Hospice...Fantastic...👏👏

Following our trophy presentations, we had some fun and laughs with Comedy Hypnotist, Robert Herdman, no better way to end a season than with a room full of laughter.

To finish the night off we welcomed ANTI-BALLROOM to the club for the first time and they played some belters to finish the night off, thank you Jude & Neil. We'll definitely have you both back again soon.

Our Ballot collected on the night raised £315 which will go towards our AMIGO'S to help cover their travelling this year. Thanks to everyone who supported ❤️

We are delighted that NIGEL CAHOON has agreed to become a mentor to our youth players during N.I.D.O competitions going forward. I'd like to thank Ricky at JOCKS CABS, for supporting nigel in this new role.👍

So another season comes to end, definitely our best to date so far. Next up we have our summer league of darts, starting this friday. The perfect bridge between one season ending and another beginning....☢️
