Amateur players will continue their bid to qualify for the 2026 Ladbrokes UK Open this weekend, with further PDC in the Community Qualifiers taking place in Plymouth, Newport, Syston and Kings Worthy on Saturday.
Following the introduction of PDC in the Community Qualifiers last year, qualifying events are now being staged in eight venues across the United Kingdom.
The eight PDC in the Community venues will each offer one place in the 2026 Ladbrokes UK Open, and are:
Enderby & District Social Club, Enderby
Flights Sports & Social Club, Fleetwood
Legends Darts Lounge, Plymouth
Manton Sports Club, Worksop
OutOut Bar, Newport
Somercotes Snooker Club, Alfreton
The Syston Brookside Club, Syston
Worthies Sports & Social Club, Kings Worthy
Each venue will stage pre-qualifiers ahead of a final qualifying round to determine their winner, with all eight winners advancing to play in the Ladbrokes UK Open from March 6-8 at Butlin's Minehead Resort.
The venues include Somercotes Snooker Club in Alfreton, OutOut Bar in Newport and Plymouth's Legends Darts Lounge (formerly Victory Pub), which all successfully hosted Amateur Qualifiers for the 2025 Ladbrokes UK Open.
The Enderby & District Social Club recently enjoyed a makeover as part of the PDC's Darts on Your Doorstep initiative with Smart Energy GB, and will now utilise the facilities to provide a qualifier for the Ladbrokes UK Open.
Three qualifiers have already taken place at Manton Sports Club in Worksop, while the Somercotes Snooker Club in Alfreton hosted their opening event last weekend.
The PDC in the Community Qualifiers return this weekend, with events set to be held at the Legends Darts Lounge, OutOutBar, The Syston Brookside Club and Worthies Sports & Social Club on Saturday January 10.
