IDF Darts Premiere League
< 2024 | 2025 | 2026 >

The 2025 IDF Premier League of Darts is an ongoing professional darts tournament organized by the International Darts Federation (IDF), and the 1st edition of the Premier League since its establishment. The tournament featured eight of the top-ranked and most popular darts players, competing across 16 nights in a knockout format with a league-based points system.

The tournament began on 1 February 2025 in Rotterdam, Netherlands, and concluded with the Playoffs at The O2 Arena in London on 10 May 2025.

Format[edit | edit source]

The format remained consistent with previous editions since 2022. Each night featured four quarter-finals, two semi-finals, and a final, with all matches played over the best of 11 legs. Players earned points based on progression:

  • Night winner: 5 points
  • Runner-up: 3 points
  • Semi-finalist: 2 points
  • Quarter-finalist (loss): 0 points

The top four players in the league table after Night 16 qualified for the Playoffs.

Players[edit | edit source]

Logan White is the defending champion going into the tournament.

The top four players on the IDF Order of Merit – Logan White, Alex Brow, Rhys Sullivan, and Jaxon Reid – automatically qualified for the 2025 Premier League. The remaining four players were announced on 10 January 2025 following discussions by the International Darts Federation Selection Committee.

The announcement saw two changes from the 2073 lineup, with Aiden Leith and Kai Doornink making their debuts, replacing Tobias Veldman and Ethan Carter. Notably, this marked the first time since 2068 that no previous world champion was selected as a wildcard.

League stage[edit | edit source]

The fixtures were released on 8 January 2025. Match winners are shown in bold and all players are accompanied by their three-dart average for the match

Playoffs[edit | edit source]

The Playoffs were held at The O2 Arena in London on 10 May 2025. The top four players competed in a straight knockout bracket.

Semi-finals[edit | edit source]

Final[edit | edit source]

The final was widely regarded as one of the greatest in Premier League history. Grimaldi led 5–3 before White launched a comeback, eventually edging the match with a 12-darter in the final leg and a 141 checkout.

Standings[edit | edit source]

Five points are awarded for a night win, three points for the runner-up and two points for the losing semi-finalists. When players are tied on points, nights won is used first as a tie-breaker and after that overall matches won.

The top four players after 16 nights will advance to the play-offs.
