Winmau, the world’s leading darts brand, has announced a three year exclusive sponsorship agreement to support the Mongolian Classic Darts Federation (MCDF), which includes the first ever World Darts Federation (WDF) ranking event in Mongolia.
Scheduled to take place in the country’s capital city, Ulaanbaatar from August 5-7 2016, the tournament will be billed as The Mongolian Open in Association with Winmau and is expected to see more than 200 players compete in the Men’s and Women’s Singles, Youth, Doubles and Team events.
"We have only just joined the World Darts Federation,” says Binderiya Batbileg, President of the Mongolian Classic Darts Federation, "and we are excited to have the support of such a well-respected company as Winmau. We are sure that the Mongolian Open will grow into a major tournament in the WDF calendar and with Winmau’s help and considerable marketing support, the future looks very bright for Mongolian darts.”
Winmau will help promote the event by lending its brand to a range of promotional activities, including websites, social media, TV, banners and promotional brochures.
"We’re delighted to be able to support the MCDF and their inaugural WDF ranking event,” says Ian Flack, Winmau’s Sales and Marketing Director. "We’re celebrating our 70th anniversary this year, and assisting the sport in developing darts markets is a very proud part of our philosophy. The Mongolian Classic Darts Federation is one of the newest members of the WDF and, with their proactive vision, I have no doubt that we will start to see Mongolian players starring on the world stage in the near future.”
