The darts stars from the world of darts, showed their support for the sport's growth in the Armed Forces with a special visit to HMS Queen Elizabeth. Darts has been recognised as a sport by the Armed Forces earlier in the year across the Army, Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force. The darts professional wanted to how their support and go meet some of them.

The event with the ship's company also featured Bullseye's "Bully" character and gave darts players from the Royal Navy the chance to take on Alan Soutar and Keegan Brown.

Alan Soutar is still a firefighter which he balances whilst playing professional darts, he made it clear he wanted to be one of the players that got to support the Armed Forces growth and he was "honoured" to be there. As well as this the Scotsman has been in the Armed Forces and uses that to help his darts as he knows how to "block everything out and get on with what is in front of you" even when it is not that easy".
