WDF Europe Cup Men Pairs 1996

The anniversary edition of the WDF Europe Cup was held at the Astoria Convention Centre in Bundoran, Ireland from October 9-13. For the tenth edition of this tournament, no less than a record number of 24 countries travelled to Ireland. Austria, Spain, Hungary and the Isle of Man are the newcomers. With 20 countries, a record was also set for the ladies. Yet a lot stayed as it’s always been, because England once again dominated.

In the pairs tournament both English and Dutch pairs reach the semi-finals. The English duo Martin Adams & Andy Fordham eliminate the Dutch duo Roland Scholten & Co Stompé with 4-3. Raymond van Barneveld & Braulio Roncero win the other semi-final against Ronnie Baxter & Steve Beaton for the Netherlands.

In the final, Raymond van Barneveld & Braulio Roncero lose 4-2 to Martin Adams & Andy Fordham who had also won the WDF World Cup pairs a year earlier. For England the fifth time that this gold medal comes back home. A Dutch men's pair had never reached the final before 1996.
