‘A NEW ERA FOR BRITISH DARTS’

'The British Darts Organisation (BDO) are delighted to announce the dawn of a new era for British
darts. This comes in the form of a revised event calendar for 2016 with financial backing from new
key sponsors.

The calendar will include 3 ‘Majors’; namely The BDO World Trophy, BDO World Matchplay and the
Winmau World Masters. All will be held in new venues with the iconic Copper Box Arena in the
Olympic Park, London, hosting the Winmau World Masters. This will now be our end of year
marquee event, held over the weekend of 8th - 11th December 2016 and will incorporate the new
end of season player’s awards. The ‘Majors’ will be complimented by 4 new special events held
across the UK that will all involve ‘Top 16’ ranked players and wildcards from within the BDO.
Details of our sponsors will be announced over the forthcoming weeks, to coincide with the run up
to Lakeside 2016, as will the publication of the 2016 diary.

Sue Williams, Chairman of the BDO said “This is a new era for darts in Britain and I would like to
thank all the people who have worked so hard over the last few months to make this happen. These
are exciting times for the BDO and darts internationally. We look forward to the BDO growing from
County to Professional level, backed by the biggest brands”.

Current World Champion Scotty Dog Mitchell said ‘Wow, exciting times indeed and I'm sure all the
players in our system can't wait to play in these events’

Some of the many, many highlights will be posted I'm sure. Until then, I love you all. Is it too early to judge whether or not it has been a success?

Traded one con man for another. Masters at Copper Box lol turn a money loser into a bigger money loser. Invoice for this was obtained and posted. Those 4 special events I think only one happened and that was the Blackpool event at some leaky castle or something. The one shownights put on and then got rodgered by the BDO and Sportal. How things never change in the BDO

"A few trolls on here won't stop it lol, real world things are the only thing that can, the problem is smear campaigns can damage ticket take up.
Calling people con men and claiming corruption and elaborate ponzi schemes is at best disgusting without any base whatsoever.
Maybe it is time to bring in legislature to hold people to account for unfounded scurrilous and certainly libelous crap they spout on places like this."

"Oh it's going ahead now is it?
Funny the other day it was a con, corruption and an elaborate scheme, at least attempt to be consistent ;-)
BTW the tickets have been on sale for weeks :WWWW:"

We had shitloads of fun mate, crowned by the sting you originated.

I sniffed the scam first day and was vilified elsewhere. Am still waiting for the apology
