A meet and greet featuring darts stars Nathan Aspinall and Chris Dobey is set to be hosted in support of Leeds Rhinos legend Rob Burrow MBE.

The darts icons are set to make an appearance at Venue23 in Wakefield on Friday, November 3, to meet fans and face off against each other. One of the stars will also take on a VIP ticket holder, and money generated by ticket sales will go to the Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease Appeal.

Leeds Rhinos legend Burrow was diagnosed with motor neurone disease (MND) back in 2019 and has received backing from stars of various sports. Standard tickets for the darts evening cost £26 and people with these tickets can enter from 7pm. Seating is available on a first come, first served basis and there are also standing areas.

Both players will also be talking the audience through their careers and an auction and raffle will be held. Co-organiser Darren Powell said: “We've got a lot going on and it's going to be a great night.

“We've done a lot for Rob over the past few years. I'm one of the lucky ones, I get to go over and see Rob and his family. We do a lot for MND, it's a charity close to our hearts.”

Tickets will be available soon via the Venue23 website.
