Beschreibung

This book has been compiled to provide details of tournament winners and runners up on International matches and WDF Cup tournaments.

Every effort has been used to identify winners and runners up of tournaments and in some cases there will be results “missing”. If these can be identified they will be included in another edition of this book in the future. There maybe errors with names being mispelt and that ladies surnames may have changed.  An enormous amount of time and effort to correctly record the results of the tournaments.

This is the tenth ebook to be published detailing tournament results.

I hope you enjoy the book.

This book has been compiled to provide details of tournament winners and runners up on International matches and WDF Cup tournaments.

Every effort has been used to identify winners and runners up of tournaments and in some cases there will be results “missing”. If these can be identified they will be included in another edition of this book in the future. There maybe errors with names being mispelt and that ladies surnames may have changed.  An enormous amount of time and effort to correctly record the results of the tournaments.

World Darts Federation

Since the World Darts Federation (WDF) was founded in 1976 by 14 representatives, one of them being Olly Croft from the British Darts Organisation, it has grown to a membership of 70 countries. There are two types of membership:

Full membership: this requires the organisation that has applied to be a full member of the World Darts Federation is the national govening body for darts within that country.

Associate membership: this means that the organisation has ties to the sport of darts and is not a national governing body for darts within that country.

Last year on December 1, 2019 the WDF removed the status of the BDO from a full membership to the status of Associate membership as per the WDF Constitution.

Great Britain is now represented by the following dart organisations – Scottish Darts Association, Welsh Darts Organisation, and the England Darts Organisation which was established in 2007.

It's sad that BDO once a leading organisation in the world of darts has declined so rapidly since the “split” in 1992 when 16 professional dart players established the World Darts Council (WDC) which is now the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC).

The WDF organizes the following international ‘Cup’ events:
