Cockton Hill pulled off a very good home win over Ferryhill in the quarter finals of the League Knock Out Cup when they reached the eight points target with two matches to go.

The Hill edged through to take the darts by the odd point but took the pool at 3-1, whilst the dominoes were shared.

Crook Belle Vue were stretched to the decisive last pool point, the only one they managed to win, when they visited Middlestone Moor.

Results: Crowtrees 11 Newfield 4; Willington 7 Prospect 8; Middlestone Moor 7 Crook belle Vue 8; Cockton Hill 8 Ferryhill 5.

The draw for the semi-finals: Crowtrees v Cockton Hill at Chilton and Prospect v Crook Belle Vue at the Victoria.
