"Achievements have been nothing short of incredible" - Luke Littler reaches new high as stadium named after him
PDC
Luke Littler's popularity knows no bounds these days. Now even Warrington Wolves, one of Britain's best rugby teams, has decided to temporarily rename their stadium the Luke Littler Stadium. Littler has been a fan of this club since he was a kid, so it is an absolute honor that they are going to name the stadium after him.
Warrington Wolves, a rugby club that plays in the Super League, the highest level in Britain, renamed Halliwell Jones Stadium "The Luke Littler Stadium" for their opening match of the competition.
Littler will be the guest of honor on that night and lead the team out. He will also parade across the field with his world championship trophy during halftime.
Littler commented: "It's a dream come true that the club I've been a fan of since I was young has decided to name the stadium after me for a night. It's an absolute honour and I can't thank the club enough
Karl Fitzpatrick, general manager of Warrington Wolves, said: "Luke's achievements on the world stage have been nothing short of incredible, and we are immensely proud to celebrate his success with this special homecoming.
"He's a true Warrington fan, and therefore renaming our stadium in his honour for our home opener is a fitting tribute."
Littler was still competing at the Winmau World Masters last weekend, where he lost 4-2 to Jonny Clayton in the quarterfinals. However, the 18-year-old Englishman has little time to rest, as tomorrow the Premier League Darts kicks off. Littler, who starts this PDC major as the defending champion, will take on Michael van Gerwen on opening night in Belfast in what will be a replay of the last World Cup final. Back then, Littler prevailed 7-3 to capture his first world title.
What an honour and what a night i’m sure it is going to be, see everyone there on the 21st @WarringtonRLFC 💪🏼🫡 https://t.co/uPkdmN5bze

- The next prodigy (prodigies) are just round the corner. Wonder if it gets to the stage of 180 after 180 being hit leg after leg whether there will be a modification to the equipment such as reduced doubles and trebles, reduce the size of the board or length of the oche?Mysstree25-03-2025
- obviously littler has the potential to surpass everybody simply because nobody has been this good at this age before, but people who think he would be any kind of favourite right now against prime taylor in a big final have short memories. it's obvious that prime taylor wouldn't win as many world titles if he was playing today, but there's also good reason to believe he'd be winning more than anybody else. hell, his statistical profile still stands alone in darts history and he might statistically be even better if he was playing today with better equipment, larger beds, more competition therefore more motivation, etc.colt24-03-2025
- Bad idea. Every other Major ranking title prize funds added together do not come to £1 million. Add £500k to the prize pot and spread it out evenly over the draw.Mysstree24-03-2025

- The Premier League is a glorified promotional tool for piss heads to attend and shout abuse at dart players so averages are not the way to pick the best line up. Throw Peter Manley, Eric Bristow and Jocky Wilson into the mix for some real fireworks.Mysstree22-03-2025
