England Darts have unveiled the carefully selected arrow-smiths who will carry the country’s hopes into the forthcoming Six Nations Cup.
Both the men’s and women’s squads boast a compelling fusion of seasoned pedigree and emerging exuberance – a combination finely tuned for a genuine assault on major honours this summer.
The selectors have placed their faith in the following line-ups:
MEN’S
Carl Wilkinson (Captain)
Sean Holley
Jenson Walker
Lloyd Pennell
Jarred Cole
WOMEN’S
Deta Hedman (Captain)
Laura Turner
Paige Pauling
On paper, both groups of players exude strength, depth, and a quiet authority – the sort of composition that suggests not merely participation, but a resolute intent to contend. With the added incentive of competing on home soil, expectation will be accompanied by opportunity, and this particular blend of experience and youthful fearlessness could prove pivotal when the margins inevitably tighten.

This year’s championship will unfold in the picturesque coastal setting of Ilfracombe, nestled within North Devon, where the arrows will fly between the 18th and 26th of June. The scenic surroundings may offer tranquillity beyond the oche, but within it, the atmosphere promises to be anything but subdued.
Joining England in both the men’s and women’s competitions will be formidable representatives from Scotland, Wales, the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, and the Netherlands – each nation poised to confirm their respective selections in due course, and each harbouring ambitions of their own.
