Bookmakers challenge Spurs players show great sportsmanship and support for good causes The William Hill challenge is a 2v2 competition played over 2 rounds which saw the 4 lads split off into opposing teams; Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen vs Michel Vorm and Danny Rose. The first of the two challenges was a straight up 6 dart shootout, where the highest combined total wins. Belgian duo Jan and Toby squared off against Michel and Danny in the first contest but it was Vorm and Rose who faired badly against the 2 Belgians despite showing a lot of promise during the initial warm up sessions.

Things got really explosive during the second round which required each team member to hit as many inner and outer bullseyes as possible in 60 seconds. The players had to throw and retrieve their darts before the other could begin so it was a really frantic round compared to the first. The competition really heated up here and Michel and Danny made quite the comeback which leveled the challenge and brought it to a close finish, to see who won check out the video on the Spurs Facebook page.

In the true spirit of Christmas, the boys also accepted a side challenge from William Hill in which they had to hit their shirt number with only 3 darts in order to win money for charity. You can checkout this video on the Spurs Facebook page to see who managed to hit their number in support of good causes.
