Hide AdBDO player Darryl Fitton noticed Levett’s quality darts, approached him and discussed a sponsorship deal by taking him under the wing of the Men in Black, along with fellow professionals Tony O’Shea and Gary Robson.
Levett said: “I’ve been trying to get noticed by a top name but didn’t imagine I could get three names to back me.
“I’ve known Darryl for a few years and for him to say how well I’ve improved and to put his name forward to back me is really great, but to get Tony and Gary as well is just a dream.”
