The English dominate WDF World Cup IV, which was held in Edinburgh on 21 and 22 October. At the WDF General meeting, Peter McMenamin of Australia is elected as the new chairman to replace Bill Turner of New Zealand. For the first time there is also a separate WDF World Cup for women.

The ladies play with two per country. In addition to the Overall WDF World Cup, they also compete for medals in the singles and pairs. 21 countries compete in Scotland, including the debutants Norway and Germany. For the ladies, 19 countries participate in their first WDF World Cup

In the pairs competition it was the English ladies Audrie Durham & Maureen Flowers, Eric Bristow's girlfriend, who took the ladies' first WDF World Cup pairs title. After simple 4-0 wins over Norway and Northern Ireland, Jill MacDonald & Lillian Bird from New Zealand are beaten 4-1 in the semi-finals.

The Canadian duo Rani Gill & Stacy Walker are the opponents of England in the final. They beat Germany and Belgium before putting the Scottish couple Cathie Gibson and Lynn MacKay aside in the semi-finals.

In an exciting final, Audrie Durham & Maureen Flowers beat Canadian pair Rani Gill & Stacy Walker 4-3. And so, the English ladies write history by winning the first WDF World Cup ladies pairs title.
