Willie O'Connor and Jonny Clayton were in Kilkenny last Sunday evening

Kilkenny darts fans were in heaven on Sunday, July 7, as professional players Jonny 'The Ferret' Clayton and Willie 'The Magpie' O’Connor took part in a very special Darts Exhibition at the Ormonde Hotel.

Organised by Ann Nolan and Tom Keogh and held in conjunction with Community Radio Kilkenny City (CRKC) a huge support base flocked to the city hotel to see some of their heroes in action, with some even getting the opportunity to try their luck against the well-known pair.

O’Connor and Clayton, from Llanelli in Wales and Limerick respectively, were in their element on the night, mixing with the crowd and enjoying the jovial atmosphere.
