Walk-on girls
Daniella Allfree and
Charlotte Wood are set to return to television. The World Seniors Darts Tour (WSDT) is going to use the two ladies in their televised tournaments years after their dramatic PDC exit.
For years, Daniella and Charlotte were the walk-on girls at the PDC's major tournaments. In 2018, that suddenly came to an end after talks between the PDC and the major TV rights holders.
The two walk-on girls remained part of the sport by making their appearance at various exhibition events as well as releasing calendars. In October, the real work awaits them again, as they have been booked by the WSDT for the World Seniors Matchplay. At that tournament, familiar names such as Robert Thornton, John Henderson, Martin Adams, Kevin Painter, Phil Taylor, John Part and Chris Mason will be in action.
"We are so happy to be have been asked to represent WSDT in an ambassadorial role", said Daniella. "It's so pleasing to be able to be involved in the sport in any capacity, but this is a real honour".
Charlotte is also excited to serve as a walk-on girl again. "Me and Daniella are really looking forward to being a part of WSDT events, and especially meeting the fans and being at the side of the players as they walk on", she said. "It's a pleasure to accept this role, and it's one that we look forward to getting started on in York".
Jason Francis expressed through the World Seniors Darts Tour that they are proud to partner with the two walk-on girls.
"We are really pleased to be able to welcome Daniella and Charlotte as WSDT Ambassadors. They always bring the glitz and glamour to the sport, and it will be no different in York. The players will have that extra stardust alongside them when doing their world-famous walk ons, and it will add further prestige to what should be an amazing tournament and event".
