Dr. Darts' Newsletter
1 DR. DARTS’ NEWSLETTER Issue 91 October 2017 STILL AT THE CUTTING EDGE: THE BLADE DARTBOARD CELEBRATES 20th ANNIVERSARY It always a pleasure to help raise the profile of the WINMAU Dartboard Co. Ltd., who have sponsored my research for a decade. What better opportunity than to congratulate WINMAU on the 20th anniversary of the production of the BLADE dartboard. (The image below, left, shows the original BLADE packaging.) Like most things in the modern era, technical innovation has been the driving force behind the incredible pace at which darts equipment has evolved. Wood and feather gave way to tungsten and more advanced flight and shaft materials, and elm was eventually replaced by sisal (aka ‘bristle’). Such innovations in the darts we throw and the board we aim at has seen players of unparalleled ability hitting ever higher averages. WINMAU (formerly Kick Bros.) celebrated its 70th anniversary last year and so it is no surprise that the company has played an extremely important role in the darting success story since the 1940s. Nothing illustrates this more clearly than the Blade dartboard. Since 1997, each iteration of the Blade dartboard has been recognised as the finest and most durable in the world – a fact acknowledged by the British Darts Organisation (BDO), which not only endorses Blade dartboards, but has been using them in all its competitions since the original Blade was launched two decades ago. WINMAU’s Sales and Marketing Director, Ian Flack told DDN, “Each evolution of the Blade dartboard builds on the innovations that have gone before it. Every time we sit down and say to ourselves ‘The current Blade is great, but what can we do to make it even better.” 20 years ago, that approach resulted in innovations that we all, as darts players, now take for granted such as the introduction of angled (or bladed) wire that minimised bounce-outs, and a completely staple-free web (aka ‘spider’ in the USA). -

The Professionalisation of British Darts, 1970 – 1997
From a Pub Game to a Sporting Spectacle: The professionalisation of British Darts, 1970 – 1997 Leon Davis Abstract: Various sport scholars have noted the transition of sports from amateur leisure pastimes to professionalised and globalised media sporting spectacles. Recent developments in darts offer an excellent example of these changes, yet the sport is rarely discussed in contemporary sports studies. The only sustained theoretical research on darts focuses primarily on the origins of the sport in its nostalgic form as a working-class, pub taproom pastime in England. This article critically examines the transformation of darts from a leisurely game to a professional sport between the 1970s and the 1990s. The change was enabled by the creation of the British Darts Organisation (BDO) and the introduction of television broadcasting, which together fed a continual process of professionalisation. Initially, this article discusses both the concept of professionalisation and similar developmental changes in a selection of English sports. Following this, via selected interviews, documentary analysis and archival information, the reasons behind the split in darts are explicated, shedding light on how the BDO did not successfully manage the transformation and the sport split into two governing bodies, from which the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC), the sport’s most successful organisation in the present day, has emerged to dominate the world of televised darts. Keywords: Darts, professionalisation, television, game, sport Introduction For much of the twentieth century, darts was a predominantly working-class game played by local people and top-ranked players in British pubs and social clubs. However, since the 1970s, the game has rapidly changed from a communal game into a sporting entertainment spectacle. -
