  • Darts League Play

    Darts Leagues are similar to other sports leagues, such as bowling or softball leagues. There are many variations, but the following is a general outline that applies to most dart leagues.

    Leagues may be run by a group of volunteers, or the league may be run as a business. A group of players, (usually from 4 to 8) form each team, who play one night a week for a season, which may run from 8 to 40 weeks in length. During the season, each team normally plays each of the other teams several times.

    In most areas, each team member must join a Darts Association, paying annual dues (typically $5-$40). This entitles you to participate in league activities, get the newsletter, if any, and sometimes get a patch, pin, or shirt with the assn. logo.

    Each darts team must also usually pay a team fee every season, ($10 to $75) which goes towards paying the statistician, printing scoresheets, buying trophies, jackets, etc. In many cases, the team fee is paid for by the sponsoring darts bar or pub. The bar will sometimes provide team shirts, imprinted with the bar logo and team name.

    Some leagues also have nightly fees, or player fees. These are usually in the $2 to $10 per night range, and is normally paid back at the end of the season as prize money, or as perks such as a major party, pre-paid trip to an out-of-town tournament, or as jackets. (One soft-tip league in Texas gives every member a 4-day trip to Las Vegas at the end of the season. They fill an entire chartered plane once each year!)

    If several bars participate in the League, then play is usually Home-and-Away, meaning that you play at your home bar every other week, and visit at the other teams' bars the alternate weeks. Some leagues, called In-House Leagues, play all games at just one location.Leagues in most areas play on weekday evenings, although there are quite a few local exceptions. Typical start time is 8pm, with play normally lasting from 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 hours. Play consists of a variety of games of '01 and sometimes Cricket (see DARTS RULES), with Singles, Doubles, and Team matches usually played.

    Don't be afraid to join a dart league, due to concern about your throwing ability... Most leagues are split into divisions, of different skill levels, or have some sort of handicapping system.

  • Dartboard Cabinets

    Ok so you have your dartboard, do you just hang it naked on the wall or do you get a dart board cabinet. Well if you value your wall, you need a cabinet, the walls soon start to look like it’s had an attack of woodworm especially if you are a beginner at the sport. Besides it looks better as well..

    The cabinets can be simple affairs or exotic metal monsters. The type of cabinet you get depends on the board you have. For the bristle dart boards small wooden cabinets will suffice and the choice is extensive. There are various colors available and some of them have fancy designs, like a work of art you hang on the wall and are shaped to look like old style clocks. The other advantage of a dart board cabinet is that they have a scoreboard on the doors when you open them out, and a lot of them have some sort of storage system to put your darts in to keep things neat and tidy..

    An Electronic dart board needs a bigger cabinet, as the board is bigger to accommodate the electronics. Again there are some really nice cabinets available from a plain oak cabinet to cabinets with fancy inlays but the main thing is that they are bigger and fit all of the wall mounted electronic dart boards. Some of them go to town and have a drawer as well to put all your darts stuff in. The cabinets come in various colors so you can get one to suit your furniture; they have light, medium and dark colors .So give your games room some class, get yourself a good looking cabinet to put your dart board into and enjoy.

  • Dartboards which Dart Board to go for?

    What a choice of dart boards we have these days, my own favourite type is the electronic dart board, no more CHALKING. Its no surprise to me that a lot of these boards are called cricketmaster or some such thing, as it gets rid of the chore of scoring in cricket which is more complicated than the standard 501 game.

    But I think that improves things tremendously, as it gets rid of the boring scoring ritual, and makes the game both quicker and more fun. I tried out the a

    rcade style dart board at an exhibition the other day and got completely engrossed, they are much more fun than traditional dartboards especially for cricket.

    There is also a home version of the electronic dart board which are almost as good as the expensive ones in the arcades and bars. The drawback? When the dart misses the board or falls out, the tip breaks. Well maybe not every time, but often enough, so make sure when you are using the soft tip darts on these boards, have some spare tips.

    2. Move the "20" through to the next blank segment. The "20" now becomes the "12," and so on.
    3. Repeat the procedure more often or less often as use and wear dictate.

  • A Brief History of Darts

    The sport of darts began as training in the martial arts, (well, the martial art of archery). Darts began in Medieval England. Historians surmise, because they don't know for certain, that those teaching archery shortened some arrows and had their students throw them at the bottom of an empty wine barrel.

    bottom of barrel

    The fact that the bottom of an empty wine barrel was used is a clue to how the game developed into a pastime. It is thought that the soldiers took their shortened arrows with them to the local drinking establishment to both exhibit their skill and have fun at the same time. When the bottoms of wine barrels proved to be inconvenient or in short supply, some inventive dart thrower brought in a cross-section of a moderate sized tree.

    The "board" provided rings, and when it dried out, the cracks provided further segmentation. This cracked and dried board began to evolve into what we think of as the current dart board.

    A game as fun as darts could not be hidden from the upper classes and they soon put their own stamp on the game. The oft married Henry VIII was reputed to enjoy the game immensely. So much so, that he was given a beautifully ornate set by Anne Boleyn.
