Following the action from Newcastle this evening I think we can all agree it is going to be too predictable , it's going to be Littler or Humphries every week , all scores should be updated on the below links 

THE COMPETITION

The Premier League takes place over 17 weeks . There are eight dart players who will compete on a knock out basis (Quarter Finals x 4 , Semi Finals x 2 and Final x1) for the first 16 weeks of the process , earning points to determine their position within the league  . Following this the top four will progress to Week 17 , finals night , where they battle out via two semi finals and a final

OUR COMPETITION

For each of the 16 weeks every entrant will be allocated at random a player to represent them at every venue , as there are eight players and sixteen venues every entrant will have the same player on two occasions . This will be decided by a draw taking place on Friday 30th January 2026 .

As there are eight players , if we achieve 32 entrants (ideal but not essential) , each entrant will share a player with three others at any one particular venue eg  4 will have Littler , 4 will have Humphries , 4 will have Van Gerwen , 4 will have Van Veen , 4 will have Price , 4 will have Bunting , 4 will have Clayton and 4 will have Rock  . If for whatever reason a player does not participate in any of the 16 events he will score zero points .If the PDC replace the missing player with another darts professional , the replacement will take the replace the missing player in our competition also .

How To Win

Winning is based on points awarded to entrants , not points awarded to players  ;

Eg ; Venue One , Littler beats Rock in the Quarter Final , Littler beats Price in the Semi Final , Littler beats Humphries in the Final .

In this scenario ;

entrants who are represented by Littler (the winner) receive 5 points ,

entrants who are represented by Humphries (the losing finalist) receive 3 points ,

entrants who are represented by Price (the losing semi-finalist to the eventual winner) receive 2 points and finally

entrants represented by Rock  (the losing quarter finalist to the eventual winner) receive 1 point .

Entrants represented by any of the other four players receive no points .

This system means even if your representative is beaten in the quarter final you still have someone to follow  , it is in your best interests to support whoever has beaten your representative to allow you to accumulate points , because at the end of the day what do points make ?????

At the end of the sixteen week stage all points that you have accumulated will then be converted into shares , you will then be invited to stake you shares on one of more of the semi finalists depending on who you think will be crowned Premier League Champion 2026 . At this stage last year several entrants formed consortiums and pooled their points to secure a greater or even a guaranteed return , needless to say this worked better for some than others .
