Let us introduce ourselves
About our Academy

Joker Darts Academy has the honour of Rob Cross being its first Ambassador. Rob Cross was the 2018 PDC World Champion defeating Phil Taylor on debut, and having him as the Ambassador will put the Joker Darts Academy on the map. However with this professional powerhouse lending his support it makes it even more important as to why the Academy will endeavour to be professional at all times. No bullying, aggression or antisocial behaviour will be tolerated once you have signed up to be the academy.
"Determination. Boldness. Assurance. Bravery. Energy. Courage. Persistence. Heart. Motivation. Passion. Drive. Dedication." Is the Target Elite 1 motto and we are so delighted to be bringing a professional Target Elite 1 programme to the youth's of Cork and surrounding areas. "Established in 2018, Target's Elite 1 mentoring programme has grown extensively by finding new talent who have won titles and are world champions in the youth games of the sport.You Are The Future."
Over the past 30 years John has won everything in cork and Ireland from Murphy's individuals to the Irish Masters, INDO Rankings and has been a proud Irish international. These achievements collectively and John's contagious and obvious passion and love for darts has earned John huge respect in the PDC and the WDF amongst his fellow players, peers and the Target Darts company. John is looking forward to bringing darts and this experience back to where he grew up and where it all began for him in the north side of Cork. The academy will not hinder anyone playing in any other youth system, with and for any other team or club. The academy is there as an extra coaching and learning resource for those who love darts and wish to learn. As the first Irish man to win a TV Major as the 2019 World Master and now the first PDPA Coach in Cork John is hoping to ensure local youths and young Adults alike benefit from the knowledge and experience he has gained over the years.
