In Memoriam Sam Hawkins

It is with great sadness that we note the passing of England National Darts Honorary President Sam Hawkins last week.

We do have lovely memories. Sam participated multiple WDF Cups with Team England as team manager. He was one of those grounding forces in the BDO and in the England Darts.

Our sincere condolences and prayers are with Sam’s wife Marie, family and friends through this time of sorrow.

A lovely moment at the end of this clip, seeing Ted embrace Sam Hawkins, who we sadly lost this week.
An integral part of the BDO from its inception. Sam was made England Darts honorary president.
