Registration at Q-School and Toe the Oche:

Players must register at the PDC Registration desk before (TBC) every day at the latest, It is the players responsibility to make sure your name is crossed off and registered, and not just to walk past and expect it to be, the draw and schedule of play will then take place and games will commence at (TBC) on all days.

The draw will be available in the venue, with an A-Z of player's names and drawn board. You must be at your board when your game is due, or you may risk disqualification.

Please keep your eye on the board and when you are due to play. The PDC reserves the right to amend the schedule of play if necessary; any amendments will be posted on the website and in the venue.
