Stephen who has come all the way through the BDO system from Youth to Men's World Champion informed the Tournament Director Wayne Williams that he will be making the move.

Stephen said,"it was the hardest decision I have ever had to make as I love the BDO, my heart says stay but my head says that I must take up the challenge whilst I am at the top of my game. I have made this decision for my family."

Personally i think within two years he has the abillity to become a top 10 player , and with players like Dave Chisnall World NO 5 and in the Premiere League Of Darts this year  and Michael Smith World no 30 and  WORLD YOUTH CHAMPION also making there mark in the PDC the future of darts in and around the St Helens area certainly is looking very bright indeed
