LADIES DARTS
Always and forever the
‘poor relation’ to men’s darts, the ladies’ game has suffered greatly from lack
of TV exposure and thus lack of creditable funding via sponsorship.
Although I do not have it
within my power to necessarily change that situation, I can dedicate one section
of my website to ladies’ darts, something I believe no darts website has ever
done before. (Come on! Correct me if I’m wrong!)
This section begins small
but it is hoped that, given time, more and more articles will appear about
progress in the women’s game. The recently formed Ladies Darts Association is an
exciting development and players are encouraged to visit the LDA website (just
click on the logo) to see what their plans are and how all lady players can join
up and promote the cause.
There are many who are
saying that the men’s game is becoming too staid, dull, rowdy and self-indulgent
and that it is time for the ladies’ game to break through. I have no idea how
that can be achieved but I am convinced that there are plenty of lady darts
players out there who have views. So, why not write a piece for this section of
my website and share those ideas and opinions with lady darters across the
world? You can do so via my Contacts page.
In the meantime, I hope
you enjoy the articles presented here.
