Youth
[edit]For the second time a youth championship is held. Over 64 players played down to the final in October 2015. The final was played on 7 January between Republic of Ireland player Jordan Boyce and England's Joshua Richardson in a best of five sets match.[3] Richardson won the title with the score being 3–2 in sets.[4]
TV coverage
[edit]As with the 2015 BDO World Darts Championship the rights for the 2016 Championships were shared between BBC Sport and BT Sport, BBC coverage was presented by Colin Murray with Bobby George with Rob Walker as the roving reporter. BT Sport coverage was presented by Ray Stubbs alongside current BDO players Tony O'Shea, Scott Mitchell and Ted Hankey with Reshmin Chowdhury replacing Helen Skelton as roving reporter. Commentary for both broadcasters was provided by John Rawling, Vassos Alexander, George Riley and Tony Green. Although it was not known at the time it was the final BDO event to be covered by the BBC before the corporation signed a new TV deal with the Professional Darts Corporation to televise their new Champions League of Darts event.
