World champion Littler set to return to Bournemouth

Darts sensation Luke Littler is set to make his return to Bournemouth later this year, as part of the second South Coast Showdown event.

The exhibition is set to take place at the Bournemouth International Centre on Saturday, May 10.

Littler, 17, was crowned the youngest world champion in the history of the sport when he beat Michael van Gerwen 7-3 in the final at the Alexandra Palace earlier this month.

And having featured in last year’s South Coast Showdown, ‘The Nuke’ is scheduled to wow fans once again in Dorset.

Local hero Scott Mitchell, the 2015 Lakeside world champion, is also set to feature alongside Peter Wright, Jonny Clayton and James Wade.

Tickets for the event are available via the BIC website.
