The night saw 16 military and veteran players team with professional darts players in a knockout doubles competition.
As well as the sporting competition, the aim of the night is to raise money for military charities and Defence Darts confirmed they’ve raised more than £23,000 during the event.
A statement said: “When the event finished, we knew it had been a special evening.
“But over the last few days, reading hundreds of messages from guests, players, sponsors and supporters has made us realise something even bigger.”
