Dave Prins (born November 16, 1968) is an English darts player currently playing in British Darts Organisation events.

Prins reached the last 16 of the 2009 Winmau World Masters, where he lost to Tony O'Shea in three straight sets.

Prins qualified for his first BDO World Darts Championship in 2010. He was the seventh seed, but lost in the first round to eventual semi-finalist Martin Phillips.

He won the 2010 Isle of Man Open, beating Joey ten Berge. He also qualified for the 2011 BDO World Darts Championship as the number 16 seed, but lost 1-3 to John Walton. After the match, Prins said that he believes he will not be able to compete on the BDO Circuit in 2011 due to work commitments. However, he continued playing and subsequently qualified for the 2012 BDO World Darts Championship, where he will play Willy van de Wiel in the first round.

Prins plays with 40-year-old darts handed down to him by his father.
