Bob Scott retires from long standing role on PDC Board of Directors

Bob Scott has retired from his role on the PDC Board of Directors after being involved since 2009.

Scott joined the PDC Board after being a previous chief executive with Coral bookmakers and has overseen the rise of the organisation to this day alongside the other directors.

"I've had a fantastic time throughout over a decade on the PDC's Board and it's been a great honour to see the sport grow in the way it has during that time," said Scott.

"Our events have continued to grow and we've been able to take the sport global with the World Series, as well as expanding the professional circuit and introducing developmental tours to produce stars of the future.

"We're now seeing that new crop of players taking the sport to the next level, and I'll enjoy watching them in future years.

"I'm also proud of the hard-working staff at the PDC who continue to make our events so successful. It's been wonderful to be a part of this great sporting success story."

Now the board comprises of Eddie Hearn (PDC Chairman), Matt Porter (Chief Executive) alongside Rod Harrington, Edward Lowy, Oliver Slipper and Barney Francis.
