Castletown hold on for a draw despite Oag's heroics

Jordan Oag of Smiddy "2" hit three maximums, a 130 checkout and a 15-dart leg in a cracker of a game against Castletown in Division One of Wick and District Darts League – but the visitors took a share of the points with the help of an 18-dart 601 pairs by Geordie and John Bain.

Seaview were given a test by Castletown Poachers but the John O'Groats side netted both points in a match that had four maximums.

Harper's "B" remain bottom despite beating Norseman.

In Division Two there were no shocks and it remains a four-horse race with Park looking like the most likely. John Sadler had a 110 outshot against Queen's ladies who fielded four members of the same family, as sisters Claire Thain and Liz Ronaldson teamed up with their daughters Ellie Thain and Lyn Ronaldson.
