European darts walk on girls get the boot twelve months after Daniella and Charlotte were axed

It has been twelve months since the PDC decided to axe darts walk on girls Daniella Harper and Charlotte Wood from their job. The two popular British ladies were the two girls who walked with the players to the stage during the TV events in the United Kingdom.
The big British TV channels did not want to show the darts walk-on girls anymore and the PDC decided to remove Daniella and Charlotte from the payroll. European walk-on girls were still used on the PDC European Tour circuit, until this year.
Ashley Zaat, who appeared as a Dutch walk-on girl during the 2018 World Championship, said on her Instagram that PDC Europe has joined the decision from the PDC.
''Tomorrow [Saturday] will be my last tournament for now as a walk-on girl on TV for PDC Europe. Not because I dont want it anymore, but because darts walk on girls are not longer allowed in darts.''
''The reason why doesn't make any sense. But just as the PDC stopped last year with the ladies, PDC Europe is joining them. I have greatly enjoyed the work and will certainly take it as an experience with me in the future.''

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024
