Dave Clark (television presenter)

Dave Clark (television presenter)

Dave Clark is a television presenter from Leeds, England who works for British television station Sky Sports, where he is the anchorman for boxing and darts coverage.

Clark was a presenter on Capital Gold radio's football, Olympics and Wimbledon tennis coverage from 1990. He also presented a nightly football phone-in "Capital Gold Sportstime" and "The Dave Clark Show". He left Capital in 1998 to join Sky Sports News upon its launch.

Alongside his presentation on the rolling sports news channel, Sky Sports News, Clark also spent a year hosting the football phone-in You're On Sky Sports. Dave has fronted snooker and pool coverage as well as Soccer Saturday and Soccer AM.

Clark began presenting Sky's boxing coverage on a shared basis with Paul Dempsey, until Dempsey left for Setanta Sports. He's been the frontman for several big fights for the likes of David Haye, Amir Khan and Ricky Hatton. Clark replaced Jeff Stelling as darts presenter and covers all of the PDC's major televised tournaments, as well as the Premier League. Though he is usually booed by the audience when interviewing the darts players on stage (often in a satirical manner, similar to that of Peter Manley), he is generally well-respected.

Clark is a Leeds United fan.[1]
