Report

McHughs won both the League and League playoffs in the South Meath Darts League in 2009-10. The next two years belonged to Kielys, winners in 2010-11 and 2011-12. In 2012-13 McHughs were again Champions, defeating Judge N Jury in the Final. the 2013-14 Championship went back to Kielys again.

For 2009-10 the Points system became based on total games won rather that 2 points for a match won and 1 point for a match drawn. i.e. If a match finished 5 games to 3 the winning team would gain 5 points and the losing team 3 points.
