Do you have what it takes to Beat Luke Littler? 🎯

Everyday darts players from Leeds are wanted for a new Netflix show - which will pit them against the best player in the world.

Luke Littler is set to face down amateurs from across the UK, with a prize of £501,000 on the line. The live streaming event is set to be broadcast in the autumn and anyone can apply.

Netflix’s Beat Luke Littler will see 20 people take on the world number one in October. If an amateur can defeat the 19-year-old darts prodigy, they will walk away with the half-a-million-pound prize.

Open regional heats will be held in London and Manchester in September for those who want to be in with a chance of beating Littler.

The call-out for participants was led by Littler in a video message where he can be seen reading social media messages from people claiming they could beat him.

Looking at the camera, he says: “Reckon you could beat me in a game of darts? Let’s go.”

Leeds darts players who want to take part in the show - and think they could have a shot - can apply here. You can also find out more information via the website.

Anyone aged 12 and over can apply but those under 18 who attend open auditions must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Hopefuls are asked a series of questions in the application form, such as how long have they been playing darts and why do they think they could beat Littler.

The show will air on Friday October 30, live on Netflix.
