It all starts on Thursday December 13. The greatest darts show on earth. The World Championship and Team Unicorn will head to London full of belief. Gary Anderson’s bid for a third World crown (he is pictured with the 2016 trophy) kicks-off against either Paul Nicholson or Kevin Burness. In all, 16 Team Unicorn stars bid for glory at the Alexandra Palace. Jeffrey de Zwaan has been given the opportunity to topple the World Champion on the opening night! He will face Rob Cross if he can overcome Nitin

Dimitri van den Bergh has made history by defending his PDC Unicorn World Youth title. The young Belgian made it back-to-back World Youth crowns with a brilliant display on Sunday night in Minehead as he beat German Martin Schindler 6-3. The Unicorn star was in superb form as he averaged 100.44 to take the prestigious title and a prize of £10,000 “I am just thrilled with what I have achieved,” he said. “It means so much to me to make a little bit of history. I felt good going on the stage and to

He was close but Gary Anderson’s bid to win a second Players Championship crown came to an end in the semi-finals in Minehead. The Unicorn star was edged out 11-9 in a thriller by Michael van Gerwen, who was then beaten 11-9 in an epic final by Daryl Gurney who claimed his second ‘Major’ TV title in sensational style. Gurney took out 85 on the bull to deny Van Gerwen a fourth straight Players Championship victory. The Irishman came from 9-8 down to take the win. Anderson will be disappointed after

Gary Anderson and Chris Dobey will fly the Unicorn flag as the pair bid for Players Championship glory. In the last 16, both won all Unicorn clashes.....Dobey beating James Wade in a thrilling last leg decider but Anderson was too good for Joe Cullen winning 10-2. The Scot, who won the tournament back in 2014, has dropped only five legs so far this weekend. For Dobey it was arguably the biggest win of his career and he reached a ‘Major’ TV quarter-final for the second time. It was a terrific day

He came into the Players Championship Finals as the No.1 seed and all the pressure that goes with it. But Ian White took centre stage on the opening day in Minehead with a blistering display. And Gary Anderson wasn’t far behind White in terms of performance! In all 14 Team Unicorn players came to the Players Championship party. But White stole the show as he set up a 2nd Round clash with Brendan Dolan after a 6-2 victory over Scott Taylor. His end average of 111.12 was the second highest in 11-year

In a exciting new deal for one our main PDC Tour players, Unicorn are pleased to announce the we are collaborating with L-Style in the joint equipment sponsorship of former Lakeside World Champion and Premier League player Jelle Klaasen. Lee Parker, Unicorn Production Director commented;  “This is great news for everyone involved and the fans of Jelle Klaasen. Joint sponsorship is of course not unusual on the main Asian tours, with Japans no.1 and our very own Team Unicorn star Seigo Asada sharing

There was heartache for Gary Anderson at the Grand Slam as he fell to an agonising defeat in the final. The Unicorn man was beaten 16-13 by Gerwyn Price in Wolverhampton on Sunday in what was an ill-tempered final. Having seen off Michael van Gerwen in the semi-finals, Anderson got embroiled in a war of words with Price and from 13-11 in front, he lost five straight legs as Price became the first Welshman to claim a PDC Major. It really was there for the taking but Gary couldn’t take his chances

Devon Petersen will be back at the World Championship. The Team Unicorn ace won the African qualifier on Sunday to make it to the Alexandra Palace for a sixth time. It will be a huge relief for Devon who has endured a tough year on the PDC Pro Tour. But he will get another chance to shine on the biggest stage in World darts next month. At the qualifier in Cape Town on Sunday, Petersen held his nerve as he justified his favourites tag to go through from a strong field of 64 players. He dropped only

Gary Anderson will face Michael van Gerwen in a blockbuster semi-final at the Grand Slam of Darts. The Unicorn star was too good for Michael Unterbuchner as he swept to a 16-6 victory on Saturday night in Wolverhampton. Van Gerwen saw off a brave challenge from Jonny Clayton as he went through courtesy of a 16-12 win. So over to you Gary! “I didn’t feel great to be honest. My back was playing up a little again so I just needed to focus and get the job done,” he said. “Michael has played well all

It wasn’t to be for Dimitri van den Bergh. The Unicorn youngster was beaten 16-9 in the Grand Slam quarter-finals by Mensur Suljovic on Friday night. But it has still been an amazing week for the 24-year-old Belgian who showed yet again that he is going to have a big say in the world of darts for many years to come. And of course he has that history making 9-darter in the bank, another quarter-final in a TV ‘Major’ and so much to look forward to. Yes, he was desperately disappointed afterwards, but
