The PDC Development Tour is the youth circuit of the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC), open to players aged 16 to 23. Players who turn 24 during the season are also eligible to compete. Each Development Tour tournament features a prize pool of 15,000 pounds, with a ranking system that determines the top two players who receive an invitation to the World Darts Championship and a Tour Card for 2025 and 2026. The ranking winner also earns a spot in the Grand Slam of Darts.
