John Part Exhibition
3 time World Champion John Part was in the Coachman's Inn, Roscommon for an exhibition on Sunday 11th September.
John was an absolute gentleman, chatting to all who turned up, and opted for best of 3 501 challenges against his opponents initially, before switching to 701 challenges later on. A number of local players tried and failed to beat him, but a few took legs off of him.
He finally met his match when the A-team (above) took him out in a 701 leg.
A real shame that more didn't turn up to see and play against him, but very enjoyable for those that did.
News Round Up
A quiet summer on the road for Roscommon's darters, with few travelling this summer.
In May, Sean Fleming reached the Grand Prix Final and secured a trip to Hull for the Winmau World Masters and Lakeside Qualifiers.
Sean lost out in the final to Jacko Barry, but a place in the final 2 was good enough to secure a place in Hull.
Unfortunately, due to the late scheduling and short notice given about the Masters and Lakeside qualifiers this year, Sean could not travel due to other committments.
In June, the Grand Finals of the Ireland Players championship took place in Kilkenny. Mick Egan took his palce int he finals, but failed to get out of the group stages. Cork's Damian O'Driscoll won the mens competition. Unfortunately, due to cutbacks, there was no TV coverage this year by TG4.
In July, the finest collection of darting talent Roscommon has seen in years gathered in the Coachman's Inn for an Open singles tournament. A host of Internationals, laced with PDC regulars and other local talents, fought out some superb games throughout the day. Barry Copelands 4-3 win over Sean McGowan, Connie Finnan's 4-3 win over Martin Heneghan and Aodhagan O'Neill's 4-3 win over Mick Egan being three outstanding games. In the semi-finals, Barry Copeland threw well to beat a decent Terry McNulty effort, and John O'Shea overcame Connie Finnan 5-4 in the game of the day. In the final, Northern Ireland international and recent All-Ireland Open finalist Barry Copeland continued his good form, beating PDC regular John O'Shea 6-4 in a top class final.
