Top Darts Aces in The Zone at Rileys
Posted on August 11th, 2010
Nationwide tour of clubs by eight greats
Eight of the world’s best players are darting into Rileys clubs around the country to open 17 new Darts Zones.
BDO World Champion Martin Adams has been booked for the tour along with Adrian Lewis, Terry Jenkins, Tony O’Shea, Colin Lloyd, Kevin Painter and former ladies’ World Champion Anastasia Dobromyslova.
Each of the 17 events, which are scheduled to run from mid-August, will see two giants of the darts world do battle in a best-of-seven challenge match in a Rileys Darts Zone.
The Darts Zones provide players with top quality facilities including six or eight wide throwing lanes, championship-quality boards and electronic scoring.
The tour professionals will also take on local players and then join in a Q&A session with the audience in the club.
With the 17 new Darts Zones, Rileys now have a total of 42 in their 119 clubs throughout the UK.
Rileys Chief Executive Maurice Kelly said: “Rileys are committed to darts. Our Darts Zones offer top quality venues for players of all levels.
“As pubs all over the country continue to close down, we are opening more and more Darts Zones to give players and teams somewhere to play and the facilities they deserve.”
Adrian ‘Jackpot’ Lewis said: “I am looking forward to really getting in the zone again at Rileys and taking on some local talent.
“I’ve seen the facilities on offer at Rileys Darts Zones – and they are world class!
“The Darts Zones are an ideal place for players to practice and compete, especially if they are looking to push on to the next level.
“And with up to eight throws, there’s no endless hanging around waiting to get on the oche!”
