Rising star, Henry Coates has signed for Unicorn Darts for another three years as he chases the eventual dream of Q-School and joining the professional tour.
Coates turns 16 next month and will play Development Tour in Germany in August and the Matlock thrower who hit a 180 for Derbyshire at just 10 years old sees it as a great next step for his development.
He said: “Signing for Unicorn is something I’m really pleased about. I’ve got to World No.1 junior darts player so this is another really important step for me.
“Unicorn have been so supportive of me from day one really. To have them on my side for another three years is brilliant, by the time I’m 18 I will have been with Unicorn for a third of my life!“ I always send them updates on how I’m doing, I always know if I need anything with changing my set-up, they will help.
“I turn 16 on July 3. So my next target is hopefully the PDC Development Tour in August in Germany.
“Then next it’s Q-School in January. It’s going to be a different experience and hopefully get a few wins under my belt and see where it takes me.”
