For several years there has been a Hermites winter darts league. This year is no exception and several Herm residents have signed up in the hope that maybe this will be the year that Mike’s name doesn’t appear on the darts trophy! Names are picked out of the hat so that the pairs are random.
All the practice isn’t wasted as the Herm darts team have played a couple of tournaments against some Guernsey teams. In October they played against ‘Play Darts for Charity’ and raised almost £600 for the Piam Brown Ward, Southampton Hospital. Man of the match was Martin Young who dressed up as a Jamaican Rasta complete with mascara beard and dreadlock wig!
The most recent match was against the Ex-servicemen’s club when £670 was raised for Hope for Guernsey. Graham from the ex-servicemen’s club was man of the match with his friendly grudge match win over Mermaid Tavern barman, Ashley.
