Tabern was initially sponsored by Unicorn, who were later joined by sponsors, Red Dragon Darts, where he developed his personal set of 22g Red Dragon Darts, which he used in the 2008 Match-Play.
The year 2008 has been the best one so far for Tabern who went on to win his second Pro-Title in the Peach Tree Open at Atlanta where he knocked out Andy Hamilton 3-1 in the grand final.
Tabern scored another championship victory in Wales the very next month and entered the top ten list of PDC players.
Alan Tabern was also a part of the inaugural Grand Slam of Darts 2008 ceremony, where he competed in the first ever televised nine-dart shootout. It was a very interesting match as Hamilton and Tabern finished off with the score tied, but Tabern lost 169-265 in the shootout as he missed out the treble 20 on nine occasions, while Hamilton missed only six times. This year has been quite ordinary for Tabern as he was beaten by Co Stompé in the second round of the 2009 PDC World Darts Championship. Tabern is nicknamed the Saint, due to his shyness and he happens to be a die-hard fan of Liverpool F.C. as well as local club St Helens RLFC.
Gary Welding, who is a rival of Tabern in the PDC, happens to be a close friend in private as they we seen together in many home show events. Tabern has been teaching darts to his son Alan Tabern Jr. Tabern leads a happily married life and is settled in Merseyside.
