Dermot McGuire won the Con Sean Cup for the second time in four years following his 6-1 win over John Gallagher but only for missed doubles by John the final outcome would have been a lot closer but in saying that Dermot was the outstanding player all evening only dropping two legs all competition and the deserving winner of this event.

Dermot defeated Adrian Byrne 5-0 in the semis and in what was one of the best matches in the 15 years of the tournament Menchia defeated defending champion John Con McGinley 5-4, John Con hit two 180’s in the first leg alone in a game that showed the quality that the South West Donegal Darts league has to offer!

Losing quarter finalists were Hugh Doherty Snr, Kieran Carr, Shaun Gallagher (Drimarone) and Johnny Clement (Ballintra) who had the highest checkout of the day of 157 other checkouts of note were 143, 113, 107 by Dermot, 115 by Francis McShane and 105 and 100 by Adrian Byrne also John Gallagher had a 13 dart leg in the first round.
