Trish Gray sends us more in this report:

"Another Canadian Youth Nationals has come to an end.

"As usual the youth players representing our province competed well and made us all proud. In the Canada Cup results, Saskatchewan were 4th place with 68 points (3rd - Manitoba 69, 2nd - Alberta 71,1st - Ontario 92) It was very close between 2nd and 4th.

"An excellent event. Even though the medals and trophies did not reflect how well each individual played, it was a tough field out there this year. Each player represented Saskatchewan with the sportsmanship and level of play of any pro, making each one of them winners! I am very proud of the whole team. 

"It is with sadness that we say goodbye to Miranda Cleaveley, who is graduating out of the youth program this year. Best of luck in your future in Adult Darts."

Trish

The team wishes to thank the SDA and all their supporters for the opportunity to go to St John's for the Nationals and everyone signed a card (right):

You're welcome and thanks for representing!

Congratulations to them all!

The team looks strong this year, boasting five more former SDA provincial champions among its ranks. They're off to St. John's, NL for the NDFC Nationals in June. Congratulations to all of them!

President Pat Copeman sends us this report from Regina:

"Saskatchewan has a new male provincial champion. Gerry Rorick of Rosetown swept through the field of forty-eight men losing only three matches the entire weekend. Gerry was followed closely by Jason Skinner (five losses) and Karsten Larsen (six losses). The rest of the men's team in order of their finish is as follows: 4th - Ken Friesen, 5th - Danny McKenzie, 6th - John Brann, 7th - former youth champion Jaret Gray and 8th - Myles Charles. Brian Humphreys is the 1st alternate.

"Bonnie Lapierre successfully defended her women's championship title besting Georgina Ratt by 1 point. The rest of the women's team is 3rd - Joan Hodgen, 4th - Judy Cleaveley, 5th-newcomer Sherry Hingtgen, 6th - Carol Shepherd, 7th - Tiffany Caron and 8th - Lowine Binkley. 1st alternate for the women is Aspen Cleaveley."Forty-eight men and twenty-four women participated in the three-day competition.

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the volunteers who assisted with set-up and tear-down and with section controlling.  Without you the event would not have been possible."

Stars come out to Main Event

Organizer Elaine Walker says they paid out $9,610 in prize money.

Top Saskatchewan finishers were women's doubles runners-up Georgina Ratt and Cathy Kerrigan; SDA ex-president Elaine Walker teamed up with Rory Orvis to go third in mixed; Saskatchewan provincial champion Bonnie Lapierre and top-ranked SDA player Judy Cleaveley both reached the semi-finals in the women's singles event.

Organizer Elaine Walker sends this report:

"This year's tournament was another success even though our numbers were down a little. We were not so lucky with the weather, but many people made the drive, and I thank you all very much for coming.
"I want to give a big thank you to all our sponsors, without the sponsors our tournament would not be as successful as it is.
"An extra thank you to Brent Casey from Gould's who sponsors the men's singles event.
"Thanks to our venue the Anavets Club and of course the volunteers, without whom we would not have a tournament. Great job to all." - Elaine

Men's doubles winners - Doug Spearey & Gerry Rorick, 2nd - Karsten Larsen & Rod Swenson; Men's Singles winner - Karsten Larsen, 2nd - Damian Rice; Ladies' singles winner - Judy Cleaveley, 2nd - Becky Arndt; Ladies' doubles winners - Judy Cleaveley & Lowine Binkley, 2nd - Clover Arndt & Dakota Roberts (both youth players).

Ladies' doubles finalists are pictured, L-R: Lowine Binkley, ladies' singles winner Judy Cleaveley, Clover Arndt, Dakota Roberts. Judy's singles win puts her on top of the SDA rankings.
