David “Baby Face” Platt: A Legacy of Excellence and the Next Chapter

When it comes to darts legends in Australia, few names resonate like David “Baby Face” Platt. A veteran of the game, Platt’s journey from the fiercely competitive UK scene to becoming one of Australia’s most respected players is a story of passion, resilience, and pure talent.

Over his career, David has built a reputation for consistency, sportsmanship, and a flair that few can match. His accolades include appearances at both the PDC World Darts Championship and the BDO World Darts Championship, representing Australia with pride on some of the biggest stages in the world.

Yet what truly sets David apart is not just his achievements, but his enduring love for the game and his commitment to growing the sport at a grassroots level here in Australia.

Stirling Adriatic Friday Night Darts: Building a Local Powerhouse

One of David’s most impactful contributions has been his role in developing Stirling Adriatic Friday Night Darts.

Held at the Stirling Adriatic Centre in Perth, this event has quickly become a staple for players across Western Australia. Designed to bring both seasoned professionals and emerging talent together in a relaxed yet competitive environment, Friday Night Darts is helping to nurture the next generation of players.

With David’s guidance, the competition has flourished, providing a regular platform for players to sharpen their skills, enjoy the camaraderie of the darts community, and test themselves in a high-quality setting. It’s not just about winning — it’s about passion, development, and respect for the sport.

DOSH: Darts of the Southern Hemisphere 

Beyond Friday Night Darts, David also helped spearhead DOSH aimed at offering players across WA more chances to compete, learn, and grow.

DOSH events provide valuable matchplay experience, coaching opportunities, and an inclusive environment for players of all levels. It’s grassroots darts done right — focused on genuine development rather than just competition.

David’s vision for DOSH is simple: to make high-level darts accessible for everyone who loves the game, regardless of where they’re starting from.

The Next Chapter: On Point Darts x One80 Collaboration — “Baby Face” Darts

In an exciting development, On Point Darts is teaming up with One80 to create a custom set of David “Baby Face” Platt darts — a project years overdue! 

Designed with David’s exact preferences and playing style in mind, the new Baby Face darts will feature a unique grip and barrel shape that reflect the weaponry that carried him to success on the world stage. Every element — from the barrel design to the flight setup — will be crafted to match David’s specifications, offering players a chance to throw with gear designed by a true professional.

More than just a set of darts, the Baby Face release represents the blending of past achievements and future aspirations. It’s a symbol of David’s legacy — and an invitation for every player to step up to the oche with confidence and pride.

The launch is expected later this year, and we can’t wait to reveal the full details.

Final Thoughts

David Platt isn’t just a champion; he’s a builder of communities, a mentor to players, and now, a designer of precision-engineered darts.

Between Stirling Adriatic Friday Night Darts, DOSH, and the upcoming On Point Darts x One80 “Baby Face” collaboration, David continues to leave an indelible mark on Australian darts — and we’re proud to be a part of it.

Stay tuned for more updates on the Baby Face darts release — and if you’re in Perth, make sure you get down to the Stirling Adriatic Centre on a Friday night. You might just share the stage with a legend.
