Riley Emery has quickly emerged as one to watch in the historic darts hotbed of Stoke-on-Trent.

The teenager took up darts in late 2023, after being hooked watching the then 16-year-old Luke Littler’s run to the PDC World Darts Championship final.

At the start of 2025, Emery took part in JDC Q-School and finished up with four points on the ranking table, courtesy of runs to the last eight and last 32 in Events 3 and 4 on the final day.

Emery showcased his immense potential with a third-place finish in the ADC Vault 15.0 Midlands rankings, winning nine titles and reaching a further nine finals and posting a 104-match average during the 12-week series.
