Official Dart Board Rules

The game of darts is usually played for fun in most pubs, pool halls and bars. The object of the game is to throw a dart and try to hit the center of a target, or bull's-eye. Many people play competitively in the World Dart Federation. Whether you play professionally or for fun, the rules are basically the same.

The Dart board

A1Darts states that the dart board needs to be hung exactly 5 feet 8 inches from the floor to the center of the bull's-eye. The actual throw line should be marked and be exactly 7 feet 9 1/4 inches from the face of the board. The throw line should be perpendicular and centered to the board.

Scoring

When throwing the darts, any arrow that hits the center or bull's-eye is worth 50 points. The small ring around the bullseye is worth 25 points. The inner ring (between the bullseye and the outer ring) are worth triple the amount shown in each section. The outer ring is worth double the amount shown in each section. Each player starts with 501, 701 or 1001 points and as the player scores, each throw is subtracted from the starting score. The first player to reach zero wins the game.

Additional Rules

Each player throws three darts at a time. When a dart is thrown and it falls and hits the floor it can not be re-thrown. The dart is out of play until the next round. When calculating the score, a player must reach zero exactly, and he also must reach zero by throwing doubles. For example, a player that has a score of 50 and throws two darts that hit the 20 space must hit the outer ring of 5 (5 doubled is 10) with their last dart to reach 50 and win the game.
