Travel:

At present there are no issues for UK based players travelling within the UK  other than social distancing, face coverings and hand washing/sanitising on a regular basis.

For Non UK based players travelling into the UK, the government in England has announced quarantine restrictions on arrivals from the following countries, Czech Republic, Jamaica, Switzerland, Croatia, Austria, Trinidad and Tobago, France, Netherlands, Malta, Monaco, Turks & Caicos, Aruba, Belgium, Andorra, Bahamas, Luxembourg, Spain which would normally mean you would have to self-isolate for 14 days upon arrival. However, the PDC has an agreement with the UK Government's Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) with regards to an exemption for a return to sport for top athletes, that the health screening in place at the venue is sufficient at this time so quarantine upon arrival in the UK is not needed.

From the Netherlands, the current status for travel to the UK is Orange which means only necessary travel can be done, but as above the DCMS agreement means you do not need to quarantine when you arrive in the UK. However, you may have to quarantine for 10 days upon your return, so will need to check your Governments Advice.

Players from all countries should keep themselves up-to-date with all information on travelling to the UK and returning home based on their own governments advice.

PDC Letter:

An official letter on PDC headed paper outlining the measures in place at this event, will be sent to all entrants prior to travel.
