TO EVALUATE
CHANGES IN THE GAME:
Its no secret that many people involved in our sport don’t fully understand the procedures and processes that have to be followed to change any rules, events, dates, venues, prize money, conditions of playing, playing equipment etc.
Our role is to determine if any changes would be more proficient for the game as a whole, and not just for individuals. These can be either our own proposals, from the PDC or requests made by our members to look at a certain part of the game.
Once these are established, we would discuss these with the PDC in a multidisciplinary environment and come up with a decision which would benefit the game as a whole.
PDPA PARTNERS:
We continually look at businesses, associations and sports to gain benefits for our members, or fully professional companies who can offer our members a correct and professional service.
WHY IS THE PDPA IMPORTANT?
Players need to have a voice in their own sport, our role is to do this for and on behalf of all of our members. They also need to access complaints and concerns that they may have.
PDPA EVENT ATTENDANCE & REPORTS:
We have a representative at every event for any issues or discussions. Following every Pro-Tour, any Qualifier and DT/CT/WS events we also provide a report to all concerned on the event.
