Bradley van der Velden
Player Bio
Bright, focused, and unflinching, Bradley van der Velden represents the sharp edge of Dutch youth darts, having first stepped to the oche only a few years ago, yet his rise has been nothing short of meteoric.
For most players, a debut at 15 would be about soaking up the atmosphere. For Bradley, it was about rewriting the script - winning the Lakeside world title with a calmness that defied his age. Since then, the Dutch teenager has added the Dutch Junior and Dutch Open Youth titles, establishing himself as a quietly ruthless competitor with his eyes firmly set on the PDC stage.
Born in Leiden and raised in Leiderdorp, Bradley grew up in a household where darts was more than just a pastime - it was part of family life. With his parents and older brother Justin regularly competing, it wasn’t long before Bradley swapped casual throws at home for serious practice and competing in competition himself.
For Bradley, October 2024 was a defining month. His signing with Team360 didn’t just mark progress—it ignited new confidence in his game and a hunger to chase bigger goals. Bradley’s style is built on rhythm and control. He doesn’t chase headlines or rely on showmanship. Instead, he plays the game at his own pace, keeping opponents under pressure with steady scoring and the kind of finishing that quietly turns matches before anyone notices.
Speaking about his darting heroes, Bradley is quick to name Michael van Gerwen - "My favorite dart player is MVG. I often watched darts with my parents and brother. I always thought MVG was really good, and my brother supported RVB. When we watched together, we’d bet 1 euro on who would win each leg."
Bradley van der Velden doesn’t need noise to make an impact, his darts do the talking. At just 17, the Dutch star has a world title, national crowns, and a growing reputation as one of the coolest heads in youth darts,establishing himself as a quietly ruthless competitor and already proving he has the temperament and talent to make waves on the senior stage.

Fini avec un revêtement PVD doré saisissant et des détails noirs, le design capture le style précis et concentré de Bradley. L'avant arrondi et effilé se fond parfaitement dans une pointe noire haute résistance de 32 mm, créée pour une précision aiguë et une stabilité inébranlable à chaque lancer.
Complétées par des tiges courtes Winmau Vecta noires et dorées et des ailettes extra épaisses de 100 microns, les fléchettes de Bradley sont conçues pour la stabilité, l'équilibre et un contrôle gagnant en match.
Un fléchette façonnée par la famille, aiguisée par la concentration, et destinée à des scènes plus grandes - cette fléchette est le parcours de Bradley sous forme de fléchette.
