Exciting new darts competition launches with creation of the MODUS Super Series
The MODUS Super Series, an exciting new darts competition featuring top international players including Fallon Sherrock, Martin Adams and Robert Thornton, will launch in the UK on Saturday (3 September, 2022).
Hosted at a top-spec, purpose-built location in Portsmouth with over £1m on offer to players per year, the MODUS Super Series will see more than 30 hours of streamed matches made available to mainstream bookmakers Monday to Saturday every week. With strategically timed content running Morning and Evening Sessions from 09:30 GMT and 22:00 GMT, the MODUS Super Series will offer perfectly timed content for bookmakers that does not clash with popular football timings or other major sporting events.
The MODUS Super Series has been created by events and management company MODUS. Founded in 1997, the management and events company represents many of the highest profile darts players in the world and host professional, premier events and exhibitions.
The MODUS Super Series have partnered with iGame Media in utilising their sophisticated technical delivery and broadcast capabilities to the market, supporting Ultra Low Latency streaming and broadcast grade quality content, by utilising our brand-new multi-camera footage supplied via 4k cameras to capture every moment and every throw in ultra-high definition as standard.
The MODUS Super Series is open to non-PDC (Professional Darts Corporation) Tour Card holders over the age of 18 and legends from the sport, with Lisa Ashton, Jarred Cole, Neil Duff, Kevin Painter, Mikuru Suzuki and Thibault Tricole among the other well-known names. The roster of commentators and presenters features Paul Nicholson, Mark Webster, Chris Mason, Chris Murphy and Abigail Davies.
Each week, 12 players compete in a series of group matches on Monday to Friday, with six qualifiers facing off in front of a live audience at Finals Night on each Saturday evening. After 13 weeks, the 12 previous weekly winners compete in Champions Week to be crowned the MODUS Super Series champion and receive a £20,000 champion’s cheque.
The subsequent Series then begins immediately from week one, ensuring participants benefit from a non-stop cycle of high-quality tournament play all year round.
“Darts is a sport with global appeal and a hugely passionate following,” said Billy Lovell of MODUS. “The addition of the MODUS Super Series to the calendar guarantees must-watch action as a far larger number of players will now feature regularly at the top level. They will also gain crucial experience in front of a TV and live audience, potentially earning prize money that could bridge the gap to going full-time pro.
“The MODUS Super Series’ addition to the betting calendar also ensures bookmakers will have access to first-rate darts content available six days a week, and with conveniently planned timings, it acts as the ideal complement to their traditional schedules.”
Fallon Sherrock added: “There is a real buzz among the players about the launch of the MODUS Super Series. It’s an amazing venue and the Series will increase competition among non-PDC Tour Card holders, bringing the chance to regularly play at a higher level for significant prize money.”
“iGame Media are delighted to collaborate on the MODUS Super Series in delivering sophisticated technical solutions to the sportsbook and broadcast space, allowing us to bring to market a truly agile and real time streaming and data solution,” said Chris Cousin, iGame Media Commercial Director.
The MODUS Super Series is a successor to the Online Darts Live League. Launched in 2020, it grew from a COVID-era, play-at-home darts tournament to a made-for-TV, studio-based competition that ran for two years.

What casinos don’t tell you: Extendy gives the low down on VIP players
VIPs and high rollers bring in significant amounts of profit to casinos. But what is it exactly that makes a player a VIP and how can you become one?
High rollers make up only 1% or less of a casino’s total player base however they contribute an impressive 10–20% of the total GGR and can bring in, on average, anywhere between $50,000 to $500,000 annually, more if they’re Tier 1 VIPs. Together, VIPs and high rollers generate about 50-60% of a casino’s Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR).
Evidently, retaining one high roller is much more profitable than attracting and bringing in multiple regular players. This is why casinos need to place great focus on retention strategies to up their players’ Lifetime Value (LTV), and on creating a premium experience for VIPs through a dedicated VIP department made of trained managers.
What criteria can be used to determine a future VIP player?
All players have their own habits, gaming preferences and characteristics, so how does a casino determine the VIPs? Simple! Through precise data and six behavioral and demographic factors. We delve into these six factors in our full article which you may access here https://www.linkedin.com/posts/extendycom_extendy-reveals-the-truth-about-vip-players-activity-7252238733041696768-XVuX?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop .
How VIP Managers communicate with VIP players: privileges, bonuses, loyalty system
Once a player has been determined as having growth potential, the next step is to reach out to the player. This is where the VIP manager comes in. The VIP Manager’s role is to act as the player’s personal consultant, resolving any issues that may arise as quickly and efficiently as possible, giving exclusive, early access to new casino features, curating a personalised loyalty system based on the client’s status and gaming preferences, and also, being there to chat about anything. Depending on the manager’s experience and the players’ tiers, the number of VIP clients in a VIP manager’s portfolio can vary between 100 and 200 players.
