Darius Labanauskas, World Championship Quarter-Finalist and Lithuania's leading dart player announced the news with a statement on Twitter.
This will be potentially a step towards government funding for the sport of darts in Lithuania and the growth of the game as a whole in the country.
"This all means a lot to me, as I play darts not only to make a living and put food on the table for my family. But I'm also trying my best for the growth of our sport in this country. I will continue to be part of this and try to do the best I can and together we will grow darts in Lithuania even further," said Labanauskas as part of the statement.
