MASA DART CLUB

Congratulations to our lads Christian, lee, Thomas and tiernan on making the squad.
Go smash it chaps☢️

What a few days for our dart club.
On Thursday night, we won the RICE CUP at our 8th attempt. In the semi's we faced the holders and 18 times champions, The Welders.
It was a great game which we were delighted to win 6 : 2.
Huge respect to the Welders, they don't lose too many at home and were very complimentary in defeat❤️

The other semi was a cracker with THE HACK coming back from 5 :4 down to win 6 : 5. Again the taughy lads showed a lot of class in defeat... 👏👏👏
The final was a repeat of an early preseason game, when we welcomed the HACK to the MASA. I knew it was going to tough to get over the line, even at 4 nil up. So it proved, 4 nil went 4 : 1, 4 : 2 and them 4 :3. Suddenly, the Ballyhackamore lads found their voices and it ramped up the atmosphere.⬆️⬆️⬆️

Fortunately for us, we had a tank on hand, Warren Mullan. to steady the ship. At 5 : 3, we were one match away from winning the most prestigious cup in the Belfast and district for the first time. It was left to Mark Elliott to bring home the Dub and he duly obliged 🏆

Yes at times during the evening it was raucous and noisy, but thats the way darts can be. If anything I appreciated the loud support we generated as traditionally we are a team that likes to sit on its hands...not this time.!!!
Winning the Rice Cup was a great way to end the season. Fair play to the HACK lads, they gave it a go and what a great cup team they are 👏👏👏👏👏
Many thanks to the welders bar staff, chris astbury for calling the final and the b&d committee lads present.
Billy, bo and Neill... much appreciated 👌

This one is for our heavenly friends, Stevie, Eddie and Mark ❤️
