Started as an lockdown concept, the now MODUS Super Series has grown into being played in its own purpose built studio with daily coverage and some of the best players not currently on the PDC Tour.
George Noble, a well known face as a current PDC referee has been involved throughout and as tournament director of the Super Series, he sat down to discuss the plan they had in place.
"This is the third stage of what we set out to do over two years ago. We first started in lockdown where we started from people's houses and that progressed, we started to do stuff for online bookmakers providing content for them and then we moved into a studio in Southampton which was the second phase. Now we are venturing into the third step on the ladder which is launching the MODUS Super Series," said Noble.
"We're looking to make the next transition and seeing where we can take the product. For us to offer the product to other revenues, we needed to produce this product. We've moved into a purpose built arena and upgraded all our equipment, staff and personnel."
But what is the Super Series trying to achieve ultimately? Noble says they want to be the feeder system almost for the PDC and want to be a pathway for rising stars and those aiming to return to the top 128.
"We're trying to be more of a feeding platform to move on to be a professional. We will have players who have been professional and some in the twilight of their career and we also have players on the up who are trying to get onto the professional tour. I see us as a lower tier underneath the top tour. The PDC are the Premier League, we are the championship. We want to be the second tier and help them progress to be a professional player."
