Career
Kenny received 12 caps for England, winning 11 times, and 116 caps for Merseyside, winning 92. He was also a two time semi-finalist at the BDO International World Darts Championships and a semi-finalist at the News of the World Darts Championship in 1983. Kenny is remembered for his quarter-final match against Jocky Wilson in the 1991 BDO International World Darts Championship.
However, the match went to 3 sets all, 5 legs all, with Kenny winning the deciding legal
Kenny also could have played for Scotland as his mother was born there, and with the home internationals only days away, his mind was on Scotland until he got the call from the English squad. After the big split in darts when the Personal Digital Cellular was formed, Kenny stayed with the BDO International and went to Las Vegas to represent England in the WDF World Cup in 1993.
At the time, he was a full international anyway, but it was doubtful whether he would have taken his place in the four-man team (home internationals had a team of 12, whereas the world cup was squads of 4). Kenny represented England 12 times, winning 11 of those matches.
He retired from competitive darts in 1995 aged just 34, the age when most players are just reaching their peak.
