PDC Release the 2013 Darts Calendar
PDC Release the 2013 Darts Calendar
Today is one of the most important days of the year for many in darts – for both players, and those who organise exhibitions. The PDC Calendar has been released (dates can change, but rarely do), so players, managers, and organisers can start planning around these. The calendar includes the just announced Qualifying School in Jan. It does NOT show which venues the Premier League of Darts will be at – so you can’t plan those trips yet!
It does confirm there will be another World Cup of Darts again this year, something that had been mentioned in a previous article here.
It shows a return to the Wigan venue for the ProTour floor tournaments, after a 1 year break. In fact it’s not only back, it’s back with a vengeance, as the PDC have moved away from using Reading and Birmingham as venues completely. The NIA venue did come in for a lot of stick this year, so that’s no surprise. The pro tour now seems to be exclusively using Wigan, Barnsley, and Crawley in 2013.
