The CDO would like to congratulate Cork Youth Darts on their double winning success in the Munster Championships which was held in Clonmel last week. CYD travelled with 3 teams and it was Cork 1 that won the Munster Cup and Cork 3 won the shield. Cork 2 were very unlucky in the semifinal losing 3-2 to Cork 1.
Tomorrow night’s delegate meeting will be at the Joshua Tree bar at 8:30pm.
