John Part: King of the Cricket Hill
Thanks to the nearly 50 players from all over Southern Ontario for showing up this past weekend and attending our spring version of King of the Hill Cricket.

Visitors:
Thanks to all who came out to the event to watch, and ended up enjoying some outstanding matches. And a special thanks to 3-Time World Champion John Part who came out to be among his fans, and give some local players who might never see him otherwise a chance to rub elbows. We know a great many of them were thrilled you came out. Thanks John, you are indeed a gracious dart player, as well as one of the all-time dart greats!
The Tourney:
Because we do a blind draw for group assignments, you just never know who might end up in your group. Just about every tourney we've done so far
we've had at least 1 Super Group, and this event was no exception. Group 2 had both John Part and Dan Olson, two terrific Ontario dart players
who have both been 'across the pond' to throw some. Both made it out of their group.
There were some great dart on the day, but the semi-final between John Part and Adam Bernard was a show-stopper. We actually filmed this match, as well
as the final, and we'll be posting it on the site soon.
