Your Chance to be a PDC Pro Tour Marker!

Posted on March 20th, 2010

The PDC are looking for ‘day officials’ for marking the UK Pro Tour and UK open events for 2010. We are hoping to get 32 markers at each venue. Markers must be experienced and will have to mark for approximately 2-2.5 hours on and off during the day. Markers will have to cover their own travel to and from the event and will have to refrain from drinking alcohol whilst they are ‘on duty’ or until the final 8 players, where the PDC markers will take over.

All we need for now is a committment in the form of ‘yes I can’ and where and what dates you are volunteering for. We will then get back to and you will have to provide a contact address and a contact number.

Hit The Bullseye To Win A Million

Posted on January 7th, 2009

YOU ARE JUST 15 THROWS FROM $1,000,000

“I think a pub player has a great chance of walking away with a million dollars”

Bobby George (darts legend and BBC commentator)

DARTS’ BIGGEST EVER PRIZE…

The record prize money at December and January’s Darts World Championships is about to

be dwarfed.

In July 2010, Bullseye Million will see thousands of darts players, pub players and pros alike,

descend on the NEC Birmingham, each with the chance to win $1,000,000 (£600,000) with

the throw of a dart.

The first knockout darts competition of its kind, Bullseye Million will bring players of all

abilities together to play off against each other in a simple throw for the bullseye. The winner

goes through to the next round, the loser goes out. And the last player standing scoops the

$1,000,000 jackpot, the biggest ever prize in darts.

In the opinion of darts legend Bobby George, it’s just as likely to be Phil the Barman as Phil

the Power. “One dart makes it a real good leveller. I’m not sure all the pros will make it to the

final rounds. There should be a good mix in the closing stages.”

Bullseye Million’s top prize is 6 times bigger than the BBC’s BDO £100K top prize and 3

times more than SKY’s PDC £200K top prize.

COMPETITION FORMAT

Open to men and women aged 18 and over, it’s 15 knock-out rounds of one-dart ‘nearest the

bullseye’ (pub players can be drawn against darts pros in round one). Prize money starts

after six winning throws and dramatically increases from 10.

Throw 10 winners receive $500

Throw 11 winners receive $1,000

Throw 12 winners receive $2,500

Throw 13 winners receive $5,000

Throw 14 winner receives $10,000

Throw 15 winner receives $1,000,000

WHERE & WHEN

Saturday 17 July 2010 at the NEC Birmingham. The event will include a Darts Expo,

exhibition matches, stand-up comedy and live music.

Players can guarantee their places now by registering for FREE at

www.bullseyemillion.com (£60 tickets will go on sale on 1 March 2010)

FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT BULLSEYEMILLION.COM

Bobby George is available for a limited number of interviews, on a first come first served

basis. Call Tim on 07786 512338 or email tim@balancemedia.co.uk
