He began the year by winning the Romanian Classic, defeating fellow Dutchman Alexander Merkx 5–4 in the final.

Van Schie entered the 2025 WDF World Championship as the number one seed and reached the final of the tournament, defeating defending champion Shane McGuirk en route. He faced Mitchell Lawrie in the final, who had won the youth title earlier in the day.
