       Rosie “Gold” Baldwin, aged just 17, beat off competitors from across the country at a qualifying tournament on Sunday in Slough to clinch the place at the prestigious Winmau-sponsored tournament in Hull on October 29. “I like the social side of darts,” said Rosie. “The people are really friendly and encouraging.”
“It is something I would like to do professionally but it’s a lot of hard work and travelling, even just playing for Essex.”   She lists Essex and England players Deta Hedman and Viv Dundon as her arrow-throwing heroes, and admits to being very shy when she first met Deta, although she managed to hold a conversation the second time round! The tournament will be a huge event, with players from around the world competing for titles at the longest-running darts championship. “I want to win it, but there are a lot of good players there so I have got to be at the top of my game,” said Rosie.  “Hopefully I can put Clacton on the map, at least in terms of darts,” she joked. “My family are also great, especially mum and dad as they always give up their time and money. Weekends away for tournaments don’t come cheap!”   
Rosie is looking for sponsors to support her during the Masters’ Championships. Anyone interested should contact her mum, Janet Baldwin, on 07597 571748.

Congratulations to Jamie Robinson (Mens), Sue Waterman (Ladies) and Rosie Baldwin (Girls Youth) who all came through the Winmau Qualifiers in Berkshire and now move onto Hull, Well Done!!
