Winmau and Burnley FC in the Community

Winmau is proud to announce its partnership with Burnley FC in the Community, supporting their incredible work in creating opportunities and positively impacting the local area. The partnership aims to support grassroots darts initiatives actively, introducing the sport in schools, community centres, and local youth programs. By providing access to professional-standard darts equipment, the collaboration encourages young people to explore and participate in darts as a new and accessible sport. The partnership creatively bridges football and darts, showcasing how two distinct sports can unite to inspire teamwork, precision and passion in local communities and promote healthy lifestyles across Burnley and surrounding areas. In the UK, 83.9% of darts fans also follow football, so a crossover in passion and interests between the two audiences is expected and celebrated. Football fans are also 31.5% more likely to follow darts than the general population, so based on the respective audience sizes of each sport, this means that when football reaches 5.09m darts fans, it also reaches an additional 19.99m people. As a brand committed to growing the game of darts and fostering community engagement, we’re excited to contribute to initiatives that inspire and empower people through sport Tom Long Partnerships Manager at Winmau, said: "Burnley FC in the Community does fantastic work in transforming lives through sport, education, and inclusion. At Winmau, we share the same passion for making sport accessible to everyone, and we’re thrilled to support a club with such a strong commitment to its community. This partnership provides a fantastic opportunity to grow darts, create more sporting opportunities and explore the exciting crossover between different sports. We also deeply value the heritage and ethos of Burnley FC, making this collaboration even more special." #Winmau #BurnleyFC #CommunityPartnership #GrowingTheGame #SportsForAll
