The seventh edition of the WDF Europe Cup was held from 8 to 10 November at the Corradino Sports Pavilion in Malta. Seventeen countries took part which was a new record. The big question was of course who could keep the favourite English teams of the WDF Europe Cup titles. Greece is participating in a WDF Europe Cup for the first time.
In the team event, the English team of Phil Taylor, Bob Anderson, Eric Bristow & John Lowe is unstoppable. It simply rolled over its opponents. After a bye in the first round because the Spanish squad didn't show up, they beat Norway with Arild Folgerø, Svein-Arne Hjelmeland, Knud Nilsen, Jan-Inge Ekren with 9-1.
In the semi-finals, the English quartet faced the most opposition from the surprising Belgians Erik Clarys, Jean-Marie de Jonghe, Bruno Raes & Felix Smout. Nevertheless, the Belgians were also brushed aside 9-4. It is also not very close in the other semi-final. Sweden's Magnus Caris, Lars-Erik Karlsson, Stefan Nagy & Ulf Liman win surprisingly easily 9-3 against the Danish quartet Jann Hoffmann, Troels Rusel, Per Skau & Frank Sorensen.
In the final the Swedes, for the first time without Stefan Lord in their midst, were trashed 9-1. The English team of Phil Taylor, Bob Anderson, Eric Bristow & John Lowe took their fifth title in the team event in a WDF Europe Cup without any effort.
