🟣 PURPLE GRADE FOR ETHAN DOAK! 🟣

A massive congratulations to Ethan Doak, who has achieved Purple Grade in his very first season with JDC North Belfast!

Ethan is one of those wee lads who always comes through the doors with a smile on his face, keen to get involved and just genuinely happy to be playing darts.

He brings such a positive energy to the academy and is an absolute pleasure to have around the venue every Sunday.

A brilliant achievement in his first season, Ethan well deserved! 🎯

🎯 A little look at what’s coming next for JDC North Belfast…

I’ve been spending a bit of time looking at different ideas and ways we can make even more use of the setup we have at Gallahers.

With 8 Scolia Pro boards at our disposal, there’s so much more we can do than simply use them for normal matchplay.

Going forward I’d like to introduce:

🎯 More structured coaching
🎮 Fun games using Scolia
🏆 Mini competitions
🎯 Skill and accuracy challenges
🤝 Team games & matchplay
📈 JDC grading and progression
⭐ Personal best challenges
👥 Guest coaching from experienced players from time to time
…and plenty more ideas as we go!

I’m still learning myself when it comes to the coaching side of darts, so I’m not going to pretend I know everything. But what I can promise is that I’ll put the work in, keep looking for new ideas and bring people in who can help the kids improve.

The main thing for me is that the kids develop their game while still having fun and looking forward to coming back every Sunday.

This is only the start — I’ve plenty more ideas I want to try. 🎯
