Jerry Umberger (born January 21, 1942) is a retired American darts player who competed in the 1980s and 1990s. He played in four World Professional Darts Championships during the 1980s, but managed to win only two matches - a first round victory over fellow American Len Heard in 1981, and another first round win over Alan Glazier in 1983. He failed to qualify again for the World Championship, but following the creation of the World Darts Council (now PDC) - a separate version of the World Championship - started up in 1994. There was initially a heavy reliance on American players to make up the contingent of competitors - and Umberger appeared at the 1994 and 1995 WDC World Championship, but failed to progress beyond the initial round robin stage. The WDC had also started the World Matchplay Championship in 1994, with Umberger beating Cliff Lazarenko in the first round. He lost out to fellow American Larry Butler in the second round. Umberger also appeared at the 1995 and 1996 World Matchplay events, losing in the first and second rounds respectively.
