    One of my favourite tournaments of the year takes place next weekend from June 6-June 9 in Bolton. Known as the FA Cup of darts it pits amateurs in with professionals in a mostly open draw, and is always entertaining.

    Following on from Kingp35's successful Premier League Predictions competition I thought we could organise a sort of fantasy darts competition. I've tried to keep it relatively simple, pick a team of 9 players and earn points based on the stage of the tournament your player exits.

    The restriction is that you can only pick one player from each of the groupings in post 2 on this thread. Points will be assigned to each player on your team based on the round of exit as per the below (thanks to Flushdraw for the help with the points)

    Winner - 21 points
    Runner Up - 15 points
    Semi Finalist - 11 points
    Quarter Finalist - 8.5 points
    5th round - 6.5 points
    4th round - 5 points
    3rd round - 4 points
    2nd round - 3 points
    1st round - 2 points
    Preliminary round - 1 point

    So for example a player exits in round 4, he earns 5 points.

    Its worth noting that players enter this tournament at various stages from preliminary round to round 3 based on when they qualified on the UK order of merit (different to world rankings) with the top 32 entering in the 3rd round. Exact entry stage for each player can be found here.. The draw for the preliminary, first and second rounds has been made and I'll put that in the 3rd post on this thread

    All entries to be posted on thread by 10am on 6th June to qualify as an entry. I'll do my best to keep the thread updated as we go through the tournament, but do have a couple of things on that weekend so if anyone wants to help out feel free.

    Boo to James Wade in that interview, moaning that he had to play in the early rounds and saying he might not play next year.

    Dont want to play the early rounds James? Just play enough UK Order of Merit ranking tournaments to get a top 32 seeding next year

    Couple of early upsets with Dean Winstanley and Ronald Sholten going out.

    Having a look at the preliminary round and some of the players selected were involved...

    Making it through we had VdV, Vos, Wade, Farmer, Bunting, Finnan, Osborne,

    Exiting in the Preliminary round were Andy Murray, Keith Rooney, Steve Hine, Campbell Jackson, Antonio Alcinas, Paddy Meaney

    Suljovic out in round 1 in a real close game v Mark Lawrence. Colin Osborne barely made it through.

    Justin Pipe also out in round 1 although I dont believe anyone had him

    Through - Osborne, Adrian Gray, Gary Stone, Wade, Padgett, Hubbard, O Connor, Jiwa, Hankey, Bunting, Adam Hunt, Wayne Jones, Finnan

    Out - Steve Brown, Seyler, Pipe, VdV, Steve Farmer, Vos

    A poor 1st round for wilddarta who lost 4 players in round 1, although 2 of his team did make it through

    All the selected players from the Preliminary, 1st and 2nd rounds have now played their games and the current league table is below. I have only included points earned, although every player left in is certain to get a minimum of 4 points for their manager

    Wilddarta top of the table at the moment with 14 points earned, however he has just 3 players left in the tournament. Yours truly rock bottom but with all players left in. Round 3 draw coming up....
