The 2026 Home Masters Championship is the second edition of the tournament and was pushed from its January schedule to the April schedule.
The 2025 Home Masters Darts Championship marks the inaugural edition of the tournament. The competition is structured across six sessions, culminating in an action-packed final day on January 6. On this day, the Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and Finals will all take place in a single high-stakes session, promising an intense and thrilling conclusion to the championship.

The event's planning began in August 2024, led by [[Freddie Goodwin]], who explored various tournament formats to ensure an engaging experience. Initially intended to follow the Sets format, the decision was made in December 2024 to switch to the Legs format, allowing the event to conclude within a few days rather than spanning several weeks. This adjustment aimed to streamline the competition while maintaining its excitement and accessibility.
