Whilst we understand that the decision to hold the Welsh open in Pontins, Sand Bay, may be confusing, we ask that all members bear with us.

 

The closure of the site in Prestatyn after the signing of the contract last May left us in a situation where we had to act quickly to secure a venue and a date for the tournament which would give all our members the fullest opportunity to earn vital WDF ranking points and to ensure that our international team can continue to compete on the world stage.

 

Part of the contract included a clause that in the event of the site becoming unavailable, we would be offered another site. Failure to comply with the contract would have meant the WDO having to pay out a considerable sum of money that would have had a detrimental effect to all our members.

The Executive Committee has been working around the clock since the announcement of Prestatyn's closure to come to a suitable agreement for all parties and felt this was the best option for all concerned.

 

We ask that you help is make this weekend a success and work with us to ensure we can provide you with the best opportunities going forward.
