19th August - CAMBS OPENS

Saturday saw EDO points at stake at the Cambridgeshire Opens (Mens, Ladies & Youths), the winners were Will Harwood (mens), Kate Drake (ladies) and Josh McCarthy (youths).


6th August - PHILL NIXON

The EDO Directors and players were very sad to learn that Phill Nixon passed away earlier today, our thoughts are with his wife Suzanne and the rest of their family.

Phill was always proud to pull on the England shirt and England were always pleased to have him in the team, Phill played seven times for England in full Internationals, winning on five occasions, he also played three times in representative matches for England.

Phill was one of the great characters in the game and will be sadly missed by everyone who had the pleasure of meeting him.

Current England International and fellow North East player, Glenn Durrant has summed it up this morning with a message on facebook, it reads :

"RIP Phill Nixon .......LEGEND"


6th August - STATEMENT FROM EDO

Due to recent unfortunate events at a couple of England competitions, the board of directors discussed at length several letters of complaint. These incidents of abusive behaviour were directed at competitors, spectators and EDO officials

It is the remit of The England Darts Organisation to provide a family friendly atmosphere at all its events, where everyone can enjoy themselves without fear of intimidation, bullying or threatening behaviour towards them.

The board of directors want to make it clear that as from now, they will no longer tolerate threatening or abusive actions or language at any future events. Should there be a repeat of this behaviour then the people concerned will be excluded from further events run by the England Darts Organisation, equally should this involve current International players representing England, these players may find themselves withdrawn from  International consideration.

If anyone has got an issue with events run by The England Darts Organisation, then there are procedures in place to register these complaints, in the correct and dignified manner, these will then be dealt with by your representatives, “The Board of Directors of the England Darts Organisation Ltd”.

Ultimately the Directors reserve the right to exclude any players or spectators from their events, and if in the opinion of the Directors, players or spectators continually breach these basic codes of conduct, and common decency, then they will immediately fall foul of that penalty. The matter is now concluded.

5th August 2013

Tommy Thompson

Chairman EDO.


31st July - CASEY & BRADLEY FUNDRAISER

Anyone who is able to assist with the fundraiser, can now make a donation through the England online entry page, click on the logo below.

Casey and Bradley's flights, hotels and uniforms are all being paid for by the England Darts Organisation, but the fundraiser has been set up to give one parent of both Casey and Bradley the opportunity to go with them for what will be an incredible experience.

If you look at the England Matchplay draws below you will see Zoe Jones, Fallon Sherrock and Stephen Bunting are all included and all three of them have had the opportunity to play in a World Cup for England, so we hope that Casey and Bradley can also achieve the same success in the future.
