Shawn Hogan

Is this the way to treat our champion? I don’t think so!! We should all be in support of Shawn for being such a great ambassador for South Africa and darts. What is wrong with you all?????????

Why do they want to ban him?

Oh, my word, why is this happening?

A sport without competition or practise is not a sport, come on South Africa support your people.

This is a complete disgrace, this man represented the country he loves playing the sport he loves, with a disability that he has never spoken about, worried about or even used as an excuse, South Africa should be proud to have Shawn as one of their sporting stars.

well done shawn

well done

I agree woth comment no5

 We need to get him playing darts again, if he is not allowed to play darts Due to him getting on T.V and putting south africa on the map, i think the people and the organisation who made the Desision will look very bad Indeed. best of luck from Us all At A180 darts who do our best for players.

Disgraceful!

A great way to treat someone who put their country on the map for one of the most supported sports in the world...Devon & Shawn did South Africa proud in my opinion and should be allowed to compete in the native home country. Rediculous decision to ban them

this is just pathetic why dont they grow up and realise darts is darts its a great sport and they are just going to destroy the game over there

if this is the way they treat a champion then they need to band together and boycott a major event and show them that its the players that make the game and not the committee who plays it. we all dream of being on tv and playing for our country, he played a great game and should be rewarded not punished due to politics in sport. come on south africa back all your sports stars not just the mainline sports people.

shawn hogan has inspired me alot and please don't take away the sport he loves most

CMON S.A. YOU NOT LIVING IN THE 1960's NOW,GET WITH THE PROGRAM, GIVE PEACE A CHANCE, GIVE THE GUYS A CHANCE.

Thanks Shaun dart players that realy love the game will back you all the way .H.Roux

I hope something changes because of this..

Our players proved that we have world class talent in South Africa that should be promoting our darts by their participation. Why would we want to stifle their talent.? Our young players need people to look up to. Its one way of putting some life back into a sport whose numbers are decreasing each year.

the cold war still looms on get a grip SA

I am of the opinion that the DSA management is acting irresponsible in their decision to ban Shawn and Devon. As a friend of both players, I am 100% sure that they will put back their experiences into the sport. this matter was discussed at the 2007 DSA AGM where we all agreed to acknowledge and accept the PDA. If the majority of players agree that our players must be afforded to participate in PDA tournaments, maybe the districts and regions should revisit the current management of DSA. Maybe it is time to elect people who really cares for the sport instead of electing people who loves to catch the "SHINE" and means very little to the sport. That is why I have decided to concentrate on golf instaed of fighting alosing battle with management. i will always support the Dvons and Shawns in darts. Godfrey daniels

It is sad that out of all the Dart players in South Africa there is only 186 players up to date that had the guts to support Shaun Hogan,most of them not South Africans. Dont sit on the fence all your life. Show your support it is not only for Shaun it's for all the Dart players in SA

good luck

Shaun represents his country and you treat him like this wat message does that send out to other dart players wanting to compete for our country. He is a darting icon and should be alound to continue to play and better himself and take his country to higher levels in the internation world of darts. LET SHAUN PLAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i agree this is a disgrace shaun should be allowed to play darts he and devon done there country proud and both players can hold their heads high unlike the dsa officials.

Shawn has done our country proud and showed what talent South Africa has. He represented South Africa with great pride, professionalism and passion. South Africa have been striving to improve the participation of the previously excluded majority in competitive sports and won't completely succeed due to resistance on part of numerous federations - Such as Darts. Let Shawn play!
