At the Scandic Hotel in Copenhagen in Denmark, the sixteenth edition of the WDF Europe Cup was played from 27 to 30 August 2008. The first edition of this tournament was also played in Copenhagen in 1978; this edition will complete the circle for the Danes. The tournament also marks a change in organizational terms. From 2008, "Little" Richard Ashdown from England and Jacques Nieuwlaat from the Netherlands are the new faces on stage. They replace Martin Fitzmaurice. Twenty-three countries are taking part in this edition with their men, 22 also bring the ladies. Spain returns to the European playing field for the first time since 1996. It will be the most open and surprising European Cup ever.

After the blistering denouement in the team event, it is Per Laursen, Frede Johansen, Stig Jørgensen & Preben Krabben who also win the overall gold medal on behalf of Denmark, but more importantly they can stick the big WDF Europe Cup in the air. In total, the Danes collect 82 points, which is 4 points more than England, which has to settle for silver. Just one point behind it, Scotland takes the bronze with 77 points. Finland is fourth with 73 points and Wales is fifth with 64 points.
