Darts has a long standing relationship with UK armed forces and the pages of Darts World have been no exception. However until know we cannot find an official record of a darts brand joining the Army:
Winmau, the world’s leading darts brand, is proud to announce its official partnership with the Army Darts Association (ADA), becoming the exclusive darts equipment partner.
The UK brand becomes the exclusive equipment partner of the Army Darts Association (ADA), supplying world-class dartboards, darts, and accessories to support players across all levels.
This landmark collaboration unites the world’s leading darts brand with one of the most respected sporting organisations in the UK. Under the new agreement, Winmau will provide ADA with its industry-leading dartboards, darts, and accessories, supporting players from grassroots to elite level across Army Darts.
“We are honored to support one of the UK’s most respected sporting communities,” said Simon Hall, Marketing Director at Winmau.
“Darts has always had a special place within the Armed Forces, both institutions are built around the foundations of community and camaraderie. We’re proud to play our part in that tradition and start this journey with the Army Darts Association.”
Darts holds a long-standing legacy within the military, where it has served not just as a sport but as a vital social and competitive outlet for service personnel. The Army Darts Association continues to champion this spirit, fostering inclusive participation and competitive excellence across its ranks.
Through this partnership, Winmau reaffirms its mission to support the growth of darts across every corner of the community, from local social entertainment venues and academies to military mess halls and deployment zones. No matter where the game is played, Winmau is committed to elevating every player’s experience.
“We’re delighted to welcome Winmau as our official equipment partner,” said ADA Spokesperson Captain Jonathan Lamb, at the Army Darts Association. “Their support ensures our players have access to world-class gear as they represent the Army Darts with pride, both on and off the oche.”
This partnership signals a new chapter for Army darts, and Winmau looks forward to working closely with ADA to continue building a positive future for the sport within the military community.
