How well do you know your darts nicknames?

You *claim* to love the darts. But do you really?

Darragh Murphy

It’s the most wonderful time of the year.

The Christmas tree is aglint, the smell of mulled wine tenderly spoons the ever-appetising odour of the baking Christmas cake and giddy kids shake wrapped gifts trying to figure out what excitement could possibly be held within.

And away from all that nonsense, THERE’S DARTS.

The 2019 World Darts Championship is in full swing and with some scalps claimed in the opening rounds, the countdown is very much on for the final on New Year’s Day.

More mainstream sports often take a backseat when the tungsten starts flying over the festive period and presuming you’re as excited as us, we want to test your knowledge of some iconic darts nicknames.

If the quiz doesn’t display for you, click here.

Some players we’ve picked are still in the competition but several big names are not and the idea is simple. We give you the nickname and you give us the player.


Best of luck, let us know how you get on and Merry Christmas, everyone.
