apology

It has come to my attention that some of my comments in regard to previous dart tournaments may be deemed as offensive to some of the opposing teams. This was certainly not my intention and I do wholeheartedly apologize for an ill-feeling I may have generated. Any comments I have made are none that I would not make to my own team members in friendly humor. I do, however, realize, that the familiar humerous insults that we may inflict upon one another in our practice sessions may not be received in the same light by those who do not regard us on an equally familiar level. Please not that any comments made by myself in regard to darts on this site are my personal opinions and do not reflect the views of the Poison Arrow Dart Team nor The Belize Darts Association.

I love the sport dearly and so too have great admiration and respect for my fellow players. Anyone who participates in tournaments on a regular basis can certainly attest that our dart playing community is like an extended family. Many of us have formed long lasting friendships with our fellow competitors; regardless, if we hail from Belize City, Ladyville, Caye Caulker, San Pedro, or Cayo, we all make the effort to support one another in terms of incurring the expense of travelling long distances to attend tournaments. Furthermore, in times of personal misfortune or family crisis we are always there to support one another.

Ironically, those who know me as a participant generally view me as the quiet one, surprising as it may be. I admit I am far from the best player but do have my moments. I take as much joy in supporting my fellow players and watching a good game as I do in winning a tournament, perhaps even more so. I greatly value the friendships I have made over the past four years of playing darts. I honestly feel that the game, but more importantly the players who have taught me the virtues of sportmanship, friendship, solidarity, and patience, has made me a stronger person and for that I am forever grateful to all of you.

Once again I would like to give a big shout out to all the dart teams: Caye Caulker, Benque, Ladyville, San Pedro, Diamond Tips, and of course Poison Arrow. I love each and every one of you and hope that any animosity that may exist within our association can be amicably resolved for the sake of friendship and the love of the game.

Hope to see you all at an upcoming tournament.
