19th March 2019 RIP HAZEL BROWN
We were sorry to hear of Hazel's passing recently, for many years she was the very hard working General Secretary of the Kent Darts Organisation, she also regularly represented Kent at many BDO and England Darts meetings, so her families loss will be shared by many people who had the pleasure of spending time with her. On behalf of her family her son has written "She was a great wife, mum, nan and great nan. She was always there to help and offer support and advice, she was hard working, loving and put others first and a great friend to many people. She loved meatloaf (the band not the food lol). She loved going to our boat on the river Medway for weekends with Colin, Steve, Rob and me. Darts has lost another lovely lady. Our thoughts are with her family at this sad time. 15th March

Deta currently our International Ladies Captain, is a worldwide icon of the sport of darts, competing and promoting the ladies game on every continent throughout the world for over 25 years. Thanks to Deta's involvement in our inaugural series of events of the England Youth Darts Grand Prix and it's widely acclaimed success, has resulted in the expansion of the schedule for 2019, with England now bringing Grand Prix Darts throughout all the regions of our Country. The Grand Prix Series, along with Youth Inter-Counties, England Youth Opens, are at the heart of our system, which can lead to representing England Youth at British Internationals and the World Darts Federation Europe and World Cups. England couldn't have a better or more fitting role model for either young boys or girls wishing to develop a career in the sport, via England Darts.
