DPNZ Top 16 Play Off for World Championship Place

admin 30/09/2021

Due to covid 19 and travel restrictions and the cancellation of events due to lockdowns  the top 16 players for the playoffs will be taken from the rankings regardless of events played.

Normally DPNZ holds 12 events in a season but due to the current climate with Covid 19 a shortened season was scheduled. Unfortunately with the Delta variant hitting our shores we had to postpone our double header in Dunedin in August due to lockdown. With the continued restrictions the September double header in Timaru was cancelled and with the uncertainty around Auckland being the centre of the outbreak our final double header at Papakura was cancelled as well.

Normally to be eligible for the DPNZ top 16 playoff players are required to play in a minimum of 6 events (50%), but after a meeting with our board and in consultation with the PDC this has been waived this year.

The top 16 play off will take place on day 3 of three days of darts being held in Timaru at the Timaru South Cosmopolitan Club.

Day 1 on Friday 29th October 2021 will be The Daley Darts Kyle Anderson Memorial Trophy. Day 2 on Saturday 30th October 2021 will be the DPA Oceanic Masters and Day 3 on Sunday 31st October 2021 will be the DPNZ Top 16 Playoff.
