Another good weekend at the JDC Foundation Tour Ireland.

Sunday didn't quite go how I would have liked but was glad to have had a solid performance on the Saturday making a semi final and a quarter final. I recorded the leg with the lowest darts during event 9 whilst also having the third highest match average.

It was good to catch up with friends I don't always get to see and it was great to have 3 NI boys down competing. Well done to Ethan Todd and Arthur Mckeever also making it to a semi final each over the weekend.

Amazing to have had a weekend of WDF darts right on my doorstep last weekend.

Friday night was the pairs competition. I paired up with my fellow team NI teammate from last year, Rocco. We managed to get through our first match making it to the top 64 but just couldn't get our darts going in that match.

Saturday saw the Open Youth event which started with a round robin format. I was placed in a group of 5. I was really happy with how I played during these games, winning all 4 and o lying dropping one leg along the way. Looking back at the round robin performance I was extremely proud to see I had the lowest darts leg by finishing a leg in 13 darts.

Through to the knockout out stage I managed to keep my form going and made it to the quarter finals.

I would like to thank Stuart Robertson for all this help and guidance over the last year in helping me understand my mentality when it comes to playing!!

It was a fantastic day of darts which showcased the talent we have here in NI. I was extremely proud to see 2 good mates on the stage for the final. Well done to Rocco Sterling on making the final, your darts in the knockouts were amazing. A very special congratulations to Thomas The Tank Elliott on taking the win and getting himself his first WDF title!!

Also a massive well done to Neil Duff on winning the NI Open, a very special win on home soil. It was great to catch up with you too, thanks for all the words of encouragement!!

Congratulations to the NIDO executive on getting the NI Open back onto the WDF calendar and organising such a successful event for in such a short space of time 👏

Another weekend of WDF darts but this time right on my doorstep. Amazing to have the NI Open back.

Totally forgot to post about my last weekend of WDF darts which was the Scottish Open on February.

Had the absolute pleasure of playing with my wee mate Owen Bryceland in the pairs where we got to the last 64!!

Saturday was the Open Youth were I topped my group winning all 4 of my matches to make it to the knockout stage. Really pleased to make it to the last 16 and to pick up a few more ranking points

Let's hope this weekend can bring some of the same.

Good luck to everyone taking part, let's make this a success!!

Home from my first foundation tour of the year and happy with how it went.

My scoring was there most of the weekend, my doubles did let me down at times but I did manage some big checkouts.

I played some great players and some of the games were extremely close. It was good to get some more competition experience outside of my norm. Hoping I can take a lot of what I learned this weekend into the rest of the year.

Proud to look back at what all I have achieved, hopefully I will be able to add to this!!

New Year and we are straight back at it, Qualifier 1 for this year's JDC Team NI for the world Cup in Gibraltar.

I was really happy with how I played as a bit of form came back and I stayed steady all day. I made it to the semi finals where I met Christian Ennis. It was a really good game between us going back and forth to go to a deciding leg. Christian pinged the winning double and went on to win the whole event, averaging just the 100 in the final.

It was a fantastic day of darts and it was amazing to see 73 youth, I think that might just be the most to take part in that one event!!

The future is definitely bright, looking forward to the next!!

2025 maybe hasn't been the year I would have hoped for with my darts, 2024 was always going to be hard to beat.

Despite this I still managed to represent my country 3 times at the WDF Europe Youth Cup in Assen, the JDC Home Nations in Wales and JDC World Cup in Gibraltar. All were brilliant experiences again with new friends made and catch ups had with old.

I was delighted to be able to get the chance to head back to the WDF World Masters in Budapest where I also competed in the WDF World Open and WDF World Championship Qualifiers.

I travelled down south, Scotland and England to take part in various other competitions. Results may have not went my way but the experiences gained will always be invaluable.

I started my county career joining up with Area 2, big thanks to Geoff Wylie and Darnell Mccrory for giving me that opportunity!!

2025 also seen me team up with Stuart Robertson who has helped me immensely over the latter part of the year.

I look forward to what 2026 can bring especially as this will be my last full year being able to compete with JDC Junior Darts Corporation.

Happy New Year to everyone who has followed me and supported me!! I hope you all have a happy and healthy 2026.

After a week of decent enough performances in the vaults today was my first county match ever!!

Happy to say I won my game, even happier to say Area 2 came away with the win!!
