The 2021 PDC Unicorn World Youth Championship was the eleventh edition of the PDC World Youth Championship, a tournament organised by the Professional Darts Corporation for darts players aged between 16 and 23. In a change from previous years, the whole tournament was played at Butlin's Minehead, Minehead, on 28 November 2021. The final took place on the stage, before the final of the 2021 Players Championship Finals.[1]
Ted Evetts was crowned World Youth Champion for the first time after defeating Nathan Rafferty 6–4 in the final.[3] As Evetts had already secured his World Championship spot, an additional qualifier was available at the PDPA World Championship Qualifier.[4]
The smaller field of 32 players was made up of PDC Tour Card Holders, Development Tour players and International Qualifiers. Play in Minehead saw the 32 players compete in a round-robin format during the afternoon in Reds Bar, with the top two players in each group progressing to the last 16. The final was played on the main stage in the evening between the semi-finals and final of the Players Championship Finals.
Mike van Duivenbode, Bence Katona and Nico Kurz withdrew from the original field of qualifiers and were replaced by Lewis Pride, Maikel Verberk, and Jack Male, the next ranked players from the respective UK and European Orders of Merit.
All group matches are best of seven legs After three games, the top two in each group qualify for the knock-out stage
