SEPTEMBER witnessed every area of the darts ecosystem begin to ramp up. Whether it’s the elite arm of the PDC, whose Autumn/Winter program is always so strong, or the big name manufacturers who are getting ready for launch season and their Christmas/January peaks.
Other organisations including the WDF and the ADC have their timetables working at full tilt and announcements are coming thick and fast. Whether it’s the return of the storied World Masters (for the WDF) or the success of the Championship Tour and the Oceania launch, for the ADC, it is clear that they are picking up momentum.
MODUS’s Super Series and the World Seniors are also moving up a level as we head toward next year’s calendar. Again the mix of opportunity for players at every level is moving forward rapidly.
All of which reminds us of our Darts Hero search. Ourselves and Winmau have been impressed with the quality and number of entrants so far and you will see examples within these pages. But don’t forget to drop us a line or video with your nomination (see page 38). The prize is truly unique so the more difficulty our panel has in deciding the better!
DW580 has been out in print for a few weeks and has proven an especially popular issue. As a result, they are very few copies left in our bunker and most of those will go toward our special bundle packs. If you missed grabbling yours or would like to make sure you don’t miss out in the future, then grab a subscription or special offer bundle, for a bargain price, here
Darts World Magazine is also preparing for a busy time. In a very few weeks, we shall be celebrating our 50th Birthday. There are several special projects and products in the pipeline and we are sure our readers, both new and longstanding, will enjoy sharing them with us. Keep an eye on our social media, website, and in your inbox!
In the meantime enjoy this Darts World Extra (DWE) with its 50 pages of news, reviews, interviews, and many regular features. Our regular themes including, Icons, Amateur, Global, NextGen, Performance, and Doing Good are here and we’re welcoming back some of our columnists from their summer breaks!
We would also like to acknowledge the many contributors from across the UK who send us news, reviews, and reports purely out of love for the game and or their teams, leagues, and venues. On behalf of us all, we thank you for your superb efforts.
