Sir,—Your interview (September 3) with one of Canterbury’s most successful dart players this year offers a personal view that many will find unacceptable. In 10 years the Canterbury Darts Association has produced 10 New Zealand representatives from many hundreds of players, and when assistance has been necessary it has been forthcoming. As with all amateur sporting bodies, administrators give of their time and effort voluntarily, with no thought of remuneration. Their main concern is to promote and foster the sport of darts for all participating players in Canterbury — not only for the favoured few. It is unfortunate that Gordon Allpress, who has the talent and the ability to be rewarded financially for his efforts, should be so critical of those who have not.— Yours, etc., DAWN AITKEN.
