Mission Darts has proudly announced that it has signed a new multi-year contract with Darryl Fitton, who will continue his role as player development manager at the darts manufacturer.

Fitton, better known as ‘The Dazzler’, joined Team Mission in 2022, both as a player and mentor within the Mission Academy. The 62-year-old Englishman is a respected name in the darts world, winning several prestigious titles during his career, including the Zuiderduin Masters in 2009 and the BDO World Trophy in 2016. He also made 16 consecutive appearances at the BDO World Championship at Lakeside, in which he reached the semi-finals three times. In recent years, he has been active on the senior circuit and the MODUS Super Series.

As player development manager at Mission Darts, Fitton mentors the team's young talents and the Mission Academy, using his vast experience to help them grow. Since his arrival, the team has enjoyed much success, with highlights including Ritchie Edhouse's European title in October 2024 and world titles for Archie Self (WDF boys world title) and Lex Paeshuyse (JDC world title).

After signing his contract extension, Fitton expressed his excitement about the future at Mission Darts. ''I am delighted to sign a new long-term contract with Mission Darts and look forward to what the future holds for us as a team. Darts has evolved significantly in recent years, and I’m excited to be continuing with such a talented group of young and up and coming players.''

Fitton also highlighted the growing opportunities within the darts world. ''The sport is experiencing tremendous growth, and there are so many opportunities out there for the ones who want to put the time and effort in. Now the hard work begins and for me it’s time to find future Mission players who align with our goals and values.''

Finally, he thanked the organisation for its trust. ''I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the management team for believing in me and sharing our vision."
