It has been a fantastic day for the England teams at the
Europe Cup as both teams have won their respective overall titles, it is the
10th overall title for the ladies and 13th overall title for the men. The
Ladies team became the first ever winners of the team title (previously
there had only been pairs and singles). Scott Waites & Scott Mitchell took
the mens pairs title with a 6-5 win over team mates Glen Durrant & James
Wilson and Deta Hedman came runner up to Anastasia Dobromyslova in the
singes and the Men were runners up in the team event.

Europe Cup XVI was played in Denmark
from 28th to 31st August 2008
Ladies Singles Runner-up Lisa Ashton
After performing very well to reach the Ladies singles final, in her first
ever Europe Cup finals, she missed a few doubles and had to settle for the
silver medal after losing to Louise Hepburn.

Martin Adams & John Walton (Europe
Cup Pairs Champions
Finals day started with a win from Lisa Ashton in the semi finals of the
Ladies Singles with a victory over Susanna Young (Scotland) to book her place in
the final against the other Scottish player, Louise Hepburn.
Martin Adams finished up with a bronze medal after losing in the
semi-final to reigning Europe Cup Singles Champion, Mark Webster (Wales).
The best result came in the final match of the morning as the
men's pairing of Martin Adams and John Walton took the Title and the Gold medal
with a 4 - 1 win over Finnish pair Kantele & Komula. This is the third time
Martin has won the Europe Cup pairs and they have all been with different
partners (Andy Fordham, Mervyn King & John Walton).
Day Two (Friday)
The men were in action in the singles in the morning and their reports are
:-
Martin Adams - Beat Oyvind Aasland (Norway), Martin Phillips (Wales), Paul
Hanvidge (Scotland) and Andreas Krockel (Germany) to move into the semi-finals
against Mark Webster (Wales) on finals day.
Darryl Fitton - Lost his first game 1 -4 to Jarkko Kumula, Jarkko
including a 142 shot out at the crucial stage of the match.
Tony O'Shea - After beating Justin Broton (Gibraltar) and Pascal Barbezot
(Switzerland) he then went out 0 - 4 to Fabian Roosenbrand (Holland), Fabian
taking out a 160 shot out in the first leg with Tony on a double.
John Walton - Enjoyed wins over Geert De Vos (Belgium) and Gareth Holt
(Wales) before going out 2 - 4 to Stig Jorgensen, John missing one dart at a
double to make it three each only to see his opponent take out a 100 shot out to
take the match.
The ladies were also in action in the singles and their reports are :-
Lisa Ashton - Enjoyed wins over Valeda Gaiga (Italy) and Mette Funch
(Denmark) to set up a quarter final clash with Carina Ekberg (Sweden). This was
a chance to avenge the defeat in the pairs and it was to be the case as Lisa
took the match 4 - 0 with a 106 finish in the final leg to move into a match
against Susanna Young (Scotland) in the semi finals on finals day.
Trina Gulliver - Beat Nora Fekete (Hungary) to set up a match with Jan
Robbins (Wales) and the match went the full seven legs but missed doubles from
both players meant a tense finish before Jan took the match 4 - 3.
The men's pairs was the final action of the day and whilst there was a
disappointing start for Tony O'Shea & Darryl Fitton as they lost in their
opening match to a Belgian pair, our other pair Martin Adams & John Walton never
really looked troubled as they beat pairings from the Czech Republic, Germany,
Denmark, Scotland and Sweden to book a place in Saturdays final against the
Finnish pairing of Kantele & Komula.
Day One (Thursday)
The day started off with the men's four man team and England were in a
potentially hard group of Sweden, Hungary, Russia, Gibraltar and Wales. The team
moved effortless through the group with wins in their first four games to set up
a group decider against Wales who had also won all four of their games. This
meant that both teams were through to the quarter finals, however the winner
would go through to play the runners up of group 1, it was a close match that
England eventually narrowly won 9 - 7.
The group 1 runners up turned out to be old rivals Scotland and once again
it was a match that was to go all the way to the deciding 17th leg. The two
players picked by their respective Countries were Tony O'Shea (England) and Ross
Montgomery (Scotland) and it was Ross who eventually won the bull to start the
deciding leg and he took full advantage by scoring 140, 140, 140 and 81 out in
two darts for a 11 dart leg that knocked England out of the four man team event.
During the day's matches both John Walton and Darryl Fitton had a 156 shot
out.
The Ladies first matches were in the round robin pairs event where they
were in a group alongside Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Latvia and the Czech
Republic. They won all four matches dropping just three legs in total to move
into the quarter finals where they faced group 4 runners up Sweden.
The England ladies dominated the match and did have five darts to win the
match 4 - 2 but Sweden forced the match into a deciding leg, but things still
looked good for the girls as their opponents were still sitting on 130 when they
were on a double but they could do nothing as Carina Ekberg hit 20, 60 & bull to
end our girls efforts in the pairs.
The Europe Cup is staged bi-annually between the World Cup
and below are the details of all players who have taken Gold Medals for England
in previous Europe Cups since the first event was staged in 1978.
