ANNIVERSARY OPPORTUNITIES AWAIT ALL MEMBERS
ADO Looks to Asia, Europe and Caribbean for International Events

Anaheim, Calif. The first national playoff for the 2001 championship season will be held in Charlotte, N.C. in April and will determine the Winmau World Masters team that will travel to England next December. But players who did not take the opportunity to participate in regional qualifiers for this event missed out on more than just the chance at a spot on this prestigious team. Anyone taking part in regionals can now pay the entry fee by credit card for the first time in history. And every person who plays in a regional this year will receive a set of ADO 25th anniversary flights, while youth finalists will receive commemorative medals.

The next portion of the 2001 championship playoffs will be for the East-West All-Stars, Youth and Junior All-Stars. Regional playoffs are set for early May, so be sure entries are in according to the listings on the current ADO calendar.

One Price Fits All

Ads are still being accepted for the ADOís 25th anniversary program that will be available for sale at all anniversary road show events. Ads are $100 each for an 8î x 10î black and white ad. Camera-ready copy and payment (made out to the ADO) should be sent to Sandi Cain, 2995 Terry Rd., Laguna Beach CA 92651 and must be received no later than March 25 for inclusion. Preferential placement is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Programs and anniversary pins may also be ordered for $5 from any board member via mail. Anniversary shirts are $15 and $20.

In Search of Calcutta Participants

Anniversary road show tournament host Shreveport-Bossier Dart Association is soliciting names of interested parties for a Calcutta Invitational event to be held Fri., Oct. 12 prior to the start of the Louisiana Classic.
