February 2006 -
Basingstoke based Paul Hogan
will be one of the 32 players who takes part in the International
Darts League in Nijmegen in the Netherlands between 6th and 14th May
2006. Paul earned his place by virtue of finishing in the top 24 of the qualifying table that ran between the Scottish Open 2005 and the Dutch Open 2006. Four top PDC players have been invited by the promoters and Raymond van Barneveld is included as a result of his position in the qualifying table over the last 12 months despite his recent move to the PDC. There is a clear focus on youth in the naming of the four wildcards with Dutch teenagers Michael van Gerwen and World Cup Youth Singles winner Johnny Nijs getting the nod. They are joined by the 2006 Lakeside World Champion Jelle Klaasen and 2004 Champion Andy Fordham. The opening round comprises eight round robin groups of four and details of the draw will be posted when made on 10th March. |
