Luke Littler is the defending Premier League Darts championZac Goodwin/PA Wire.
But first, they’ve got to get past 17 nights of action across the UK and Europe before heading to London in May.
Like most of the tour calendar, you have to win a certain number of legs to win the match.
Unlike the PDC World Championship, it is impossible that you could win more legs than your opponent, but still exit the tournament by losing more sets.
SunSport have the lowdown on all things format, tiebreaks and sudden death legs.
What is the Premier League Darts format?
The first 16 rounds of the tournament will see seven matches per night, with each match being best-of-11 legs, or first to six legs.
The number of legs needed to win increases as the tournament reaches its conclusion where the first person to win the most legs out of 21 (first to 11) will win the entire tournament.
Nights one to 16: Best of 11 legs (first to six)
Semi-final: Best of 19 legs (first to 10)
Final: Best of 21 legs (first to 11)
When is there a tiebreak and sudden death?
During Premier League Darts, there are no tiebreaks or sudden death legs.
Whoever reaches six legs first is the victor.
We saw a great example of this during Michael van Gerwen and Luke Littler’s clash last week, as Mighty Mike edged out a close contest 6-5 against the teenage sensation.

A GRENADE was thrown into a packed bar by a man with an assault rifle in France leaving 12 injured before the gunman fled.
Six people were also seriously injured in the chilling attack on Wednesday night in Grenoble’s Olympic Village and two were left in a critical condition.

Prosecutor François Touret de Coucy said: “A person came in, threw a grenade, didn’t say a word, it seems, and then fled.”
The assailant did not use the Kalashnikov-type assault rifle that he reportedly had when he struck shortly after 8pm local time.
Mayor of Grenoble, Eric Piolle, said he condemned the “criminal act of unprecedented violence that occurred in a business in the Olympic Village district”.
The grenade’s explosion shattered the windows at the front of the bar and sent glass flying across the establishment as people were drinking.
Those injured were left covered in blood in the parking lot underneath survival blankets in the cold winter night as emergency services treated them.
Prosecutor Touret de Coucy said: “There’s nothing to make us think it’s linked to terrorism”.
He labelled the attack an “act of extreme violence” that “may be linked to a settling of scores.”
The bar – Aksehir – is named after a town in the Konya Province of Turkey
All the injured were taken to the Grenoble Alpes University Hospital, BFMTV reported.
Grenoble was the host for the 1968 Winter Olympic Games.

A COUNCIL house mum-of-four has shown the bargain DIY transformation she completed to take her ugly, ‘s****y’ interior doors to ‘Instagram-worthy’ for under £15.
DIY and upcycling fanatic Rebekah posted a video to her TikTok account, documenting the process of her home makeover.

The home renovation vlogger has previously spoken candidly about her experience doing up her council home, which had been in such a bad state when she’d received it in 2023 she’d cried.
She’d moved into the property with her disabled husband, who was previously an avionics technician in the army, their two sons and two daughters.
She previously told Fabulous the day the family moved in they found broken glass all over the floor, exposed wires and pregnancy tests and rubbish laying around the property.
Forced to accept her dire situation, Rebekah started to post videos of her renovation progress online, and now has a whopping 32,000 TikTok followers.
In her latest clip, she’d taken on the challenge of giving her egg box doors a major glow up, sick of how “tragic” and “depressing” they looked.
Initially hoping she could get away with just a lick of paint, Rebekah soon realised this wasn’t going to be a quick cover-up job.
Using “cheap wood trim from B&Q” to complete her “glorified glueing and sticking project,” the savvy mum set to work.
Whipping out a measuring tape, Rebekah got to work sizing up the door, making sure she didn’t overlap any of her DIY with her door handles.
She then used her measurements to cut out two long and two short pieces of wooden trim, ready to be stuck directly onto her door to create a mock panelling effect.
Opting to start from the top of the door and work her way down, Rebekah used a spirit level to keep everything neat and straight.
She then used a small amount of caulk to seal the edges of her wooden trim together, creating a neat rectangle shape on the face of her door.
Using leftover chalk paint, she covered the door in a beautiful trendy forest green colour.
She revealed to followers in the comments that her project had cost her just £13 in total.
“And just like that we’ve gone from tragic, brown council house doors to somewhat worthy of an Instagram photo,” she told viewers triumphantly.
How to do your council house up on the cheap
Take inspiration from pricier shops and head to B&M, Home Bargains for interior decorations.
Head to YouTube for easy to follow tutorials on how to decorate rather than paying for professionals.
For a quick glow-up for your floors or anywhere with tiles, opt for stick-on vinyl to save on costs.
A lick of paint does wonders to make a room feel brand-new.

Viewers react
Rebekah’s fans gushed over her hard work in the comments.
“Great idea! it’s all coming together beautifully, you are doing an awesome job,” one said.
“You’re doing so well,” another affirmed.
“You wanna come do my house when your done? ‘Cause I’m pretty sure after this you can call yourself a professional,” another said.

4 weeks agoNew York StateComments Off on I work in a nursery and parents need to STOP sending their kids in wearing snowsuits – Crocs also need to be banned
A NURSERY worker has revealed the five things parents do that she can’t stand.
From mums that send their little darlings to nursery wearing a snowsuit, to the parents who always put their kids in Crocs, Caitlin Pearce got candid on the things that grind her gears.

From sending kids in wearing snowsuits, to letting youngsters bring in puzzles, Caitlin Pearce was eager to set the record straight with her recent clipTikTok/@caitlinpearce1Tom FarmerShe also can’t stand it when children arrive wearing Crocs[/caption]
Posting on social media, the brunette beauty who works in childcare shared a short clip with the caption ‘I give up.’
Alongside the video, Caitlin wrote: “Things I wish parents would stop putting their kids in for nursery as a nursery practitioner.”
Whilst Caitlin claimed that she loves her job, she shared her frustration at parents who dress their babies in snowsuits.
To this, she admitted: “We physically have to fight to get this off of the child.”
Not only this, but Caitlin also revealed why she hates it when parents send little ones to nursery in designer clothing.
She continued: “It’s not worth it. It’s going to get dirty, no matter how many times you shout at me.”
Whilst Caitlin is also not keen on denim jumpsuits for nursery, she was then eager to share her thoughts on Crocs and slip-on shoes.
The childcare worker claimed: “I have to put these back on 10000s times a day.”
But not only this, Caitlin even stressed why parents should never let their kids bring puzzles to nursery.
She wrote: “100 piece puzzle sets and demands we are not to lose a single piece. Help me.”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @caitlinpearce1, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 106,000 views.
Whilst many nursery teachers could relate to Caitlin’s clip, other childcare workers were eager to share the other things they hate to see kids wearing.

Different parenting styles explained
There are four recognised styles of parenting explained below:
Authoritarian Parenting
What some might describe as ‘regimental’ or ‘strict parenting.
Parents with this style focus on strict rules, obedience, and discipline.
Authoritarian parents take over the decision-making power, rarely giving children any input in the matter.
When it comes to rules, you believe it’s “my way or the highway.”
Permissive Parenting
Often referred to as ‘soft parenting’ or ‘yes mums/dads’.
Permissive parents are lenient, only stepping in when there’s a serious problem.
They’re quite forgiving and they adopt an attitude of “kids will be kids.”
Oftentimes they act more like friends than authoritative figures.
Authoritative Parenting
Authoritative parents provide their children with rules and boundaries, but they also give them the freedom to make decisions.
With an authoritative parenting style, parents validate their children’s feelings while also making it clear that the adults are ultimately in charge.
They use positive reinforcement techniques, like praise and reward systems, as opposed to harsh punishments.
Neglectful or Uninvolved Parenting
Essentially, neglectful parents ignore their children, who receive little guidance, nurturing, and parental attention.
They don’t set rules or expectations, and they tend to have minimal knowledge about what their children are doing.
Uninvolved parents expect children to raise themselves. They don’t devote much time or energy to meeting children’s basic needs.
Uninvolved parents may be neglectful but it’s not always intentional. A parent with mental health issues or substance abuse problems, for example, may not be able to care for a child’s physical or emotional needs consistently.
A third commented: “For me jeans especially when toilet training.”
However, at the same time, one mum snapped: “If I’m paying my nursery fees I’ll send my child in whatever I want.”
Not only this, but another parent confessed: “I’m the snowsuit momma and I am not sorry.
“My son’s nursery still lets them play outside when it’s raining and snowing so the snowsuit stays.”
