Saturday August 14th was a big day for darts in Southern Ontario.
We had 50-some players come out for 2 new versions of our popular King of the Hill series of tournaments – King of the Hill Elite and “F” The Elite.
The idea was a a simple – run two tournaments side-by-side, one for Elite players, and the other for ‘regular’ players.
This way the ‘regular’ players could play in their own tournament without having some of the best shots beat them handily.
Also, if a player felt like it was time to step it up a notch or two, he or she could play in the Elite event and play some of the best.
We had a great turnout with Dan Olson, consistently one of the best shots in Canada, besting 3-time World Champ John Part 5-2 in the final.
About 2 dozen of the players from the “F” The Elite tournament either stayed or stopped their play to watch the Elite finals.
When you think about it this way, the “F’ players had a chance to play in a tournament with mostly other players of their level, had a chance to play in the same room as a darting legend, and have a great day out.
