New rules will send the number one ranked player in the Nordic and Baltic rankings directly to Final Stage at Q-School.

The Professional Darts Corporation has published revised Order of Merit Rules for 2024 and PDC Nordic & Baltic is delighted to announce that this year’s Nordic and Baltic Pro Tour ranking champion will receive an automatic place in the Final Stage at 2025 PDC European Q-School.

Our representative will join those from the other PDC Global Affiliate Tours (CDC North America, PDC Asia, Dartplayers Australia and Dartplayers New Zealand) in attempting to secure a two-year spot on the PDC Pro Tour.

Unlike the other PDC Global Affiliate Tours, that will be able to choose between the UK or European Q-School, the PDCNB Champion will enter the final stage of the European Q-School.

Should the Nordic and Baltic Pro Tour ranking Champion decline the invitation, it will pass to the runner-up. If the runner-up declines then the invite will be withdrawn.
