Dart Caller - Huw Ware - "Huw-dini"

Huw Ware More about Huw Ware Video

As I tried to explain in my blog post, I felt bad because I hadn't given people the chance to know the real me. So I decided to come out.

We want the players to know who we really are. Personal skills are so crucial for refs. If you need to really talk to someone, and sometimes to discipline them, there has to be that each-way respect.

Ware finished off the blog by writing that "everybody has the right to be themselves, no matter what environment they're in, and that is what's most important".

He titled it 'A quick message I was very close to them and they thought it was best not to do it - I think they just wanted to protect me and I understood that.

I was still at university at the time. The following year, the young Welshman reffed in the final once again, this time with Stephen Bunting taking the silverware by defeating Alan Norris.

I was already out to my friends away from darts at that time. I felt ready to do it - but I didn't know what reaction I'd get.

I've always believed I'm in darts to referee darts matches, so I thought I'd get it done and probably wouldn't talk about it again.

After the pub quiz, he checked his phone. The Facebook comments were coming in fast from friends and family, but also from his many acquaintances in the world of darts, including players and fans.

It actually made me quite emotional. Ware was reminded of those reactions to his story four years ago when he attended Stonewall's Rainbow Laces Summit in September.

The event at Wembley Stadium featured talks and panel discussions with LGBT people and allies from a wide range of national governing bodies, organisations and clubs.

He listened to the coming-out experiences of other LGBT people in athletics, football, motorsport and cricket, to name but a few.

I happen to be the only openly gay male in darts - that is only one part of my identity, but it's an important one.

Ware says he has experienced a few "difficult moments" as a consequence of being out; he puts each one down to a lack of understanding.

He is sure that having darts back Rainbow Laces in a simple but publicly stated manner will have the necessary effect. Ware was 16 when he first told one of his sixth-form friends that he was gay - "we were in the middle of a clean-up on Aberthaw Beach!

It was all cool" - and was already a darts fanatic, playing for his county youth side in Glamorgan. When the caller failed to show up one day for their friendly match against the seniors, Ware was asked to step in as they knew he could "do the numbers".

The two Stephens genuinely enjoyed meeting Dimitri and Gezzy - they were very nervous about playing darts on stage with a crowd but I think they really enjoyed it.

Getting to speak to them about my personal experiences was definitely a highlight. The comedian said: "I can totally understand why people in these traditionally macho, male-heavy sports arenas be it darts, football, rugby, don't want to come out.

We live in an era where people are still very ready and quick to judge you. The ripple effect is immeasurable. With the theme of allyship running through this year's activation, Ware knows the impact that allies can have too.

Price and Van den Bergh proved to be great sports and supporters in 'I'm Game', and other high-profile players have been getting involved too.

Joe Cullen, Michael van Gerwen and Peter Wright are among those to have either spoken about Rainbow Laces or showed off the campaign colours.

It gets that message out there to the wider darts community. Ware was among the inaugural group of Stonewall Sport Champions announced by the charity a year ago.

He's now stepping back from the role as he wants to give someone else the opportunity instead. The best thing I can provide is visibility.

With the rise of the women's game and darts' global reach extending all the time, conversations about all forms of diversity and inclusion are increasingly relevant for the sport.

Now he's hoping to hear the fans again before the year is out. Jon Holmes jonboy PSG, Basaksehir walk off after alleged racist remark by official.
