GDA qualifies for WDF Championships
Contrary to a previous press release, The Guyana Darts Association (GDA) can now participate in the upcoming World Darts Federation (WDF) Championship to be held in St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada in October of this year.
The President of the WDF had misinformed the GDA on the rules of eligibility.
Local player Colin France voiced his doubts about the rules and contact was made to the secretary of the Caribbean Darts Organisation who then contacted the President of the WDF and was also referred to the said incorrect rules. These rules also placed all the Caribbean and South American Territories in the same plight as Guyana.
This was pointed out to the WDF President who then admitted that he had forwarded the European version of the rules rather than the WDF Universal rules which allows all financial member countries to participate in WDF world tournaments.
Meanwhile, The GDA has been informed that top local player Sudesh Fitzgerald has withdrawn from the team of players who qualified through trials, citing personal reasons.
The GDA has also decided further trials and practice sessions will be held in order finalise and fine tune the four member men’s team for this tournament.
