James Wade has signed a new long-term contract with Unicorn Darts, it has been revealed taking his partnership with the darts manufacturer to almost two decades.
Wade claimed his ninth major title last year in a double within two weeks which saw him win both the European Championship and World Series of Darts Finals.
'The Machine' spoke about the deal and called it the perfect partnership; especially with the manufacturer standing by him through his tough times.
“It has always been the perfect partnership for me,” he said. “Unicorn have been with me on my journey and given me incredible support.”
“As people will know, I’ve been through some tough times away from darts, but Unicorn has steadfastly stood by me and I will always be grateful.” Wade added.
Unicorn Managing Director Edward Lowy also gave his thoughts on the new deal; he believes that it will continue to provide results like it has done for the past 15 years.
“It was 15 years ago when we first started working with the extraordinary talent of James’ left arm! That arm has placed Unicorn darts in pole position in so many tournaments, including ‘Nine Magnificent Majors’ and I am convinced the partnership will continue to flourish.”

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
UndartedWaters19-11-2024 - Luke Littler played incredible darts yesterday in the semi-final and the final, heralding a new era of darts (along with some of the other brilliant young players who are emerging). And yet, at Luke's celebration feast, de Decker's ghost is Banquo to Littler's Macbeth, mournfully looking on.UndartedWaters18-11-2024
- Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
