A DEDICATED DARTS SHOP SINCE 1998
History | In Memory of Dave Barnes
D B Darts has been trading in Clacton Covered Market, Essex, since January 1998. Dave Barnes, a well-known local dart player, decided he wanted to offer a service to local dart leagues. When D B Darts first opened, this specialist stall had one oche, one display cabinet and other services including engraving, key cutting, fishing and snooker repairs.
In 2006 Dave became very ill and needed the help of his friend Terry to keep the stall going. Sadly, in November 2007 Dave lost his battle with cancer. The stall was left to Terry to which he continues Dave’s legacy providing darts services to the local community, and the name ‘D B Darts ltd’ was registered by us in memory of a great player Jan 2008. Our dart background comes from Jim Sweeney, my father-in-law. He was one of the founders of the BDO in 1973 and my husband grew up playing along many legends on their way to the top.
Today, we are a little larger in floor size and have revamped the area to include a workshop, two full-size oches, having five times the stock on the walls, from floor to ceilings, in three display cabinets. We also now offer snooker accessories, trophies and awards!
The moment you walk in our stall, you’ll think that you’ve been transported back to a time when dart shops were in every town. We support the sport of darts with our wide range of stock, including vintage, so that we can meet the needs of all our customers, combining the best of both old and new all in one stall. Celebrity darts players can be seen visiting our unique stall for personal services such as re-pointing and fine-tuning their game.
