How to Become a Professional Dart Thrower

The American Dart League (ADL) is one of the major circuits for professional dart throwers. The league offers both English “steel tip” and electronic “soft tip” tournaments. Another league, the American Darts Organization (ADO), also sanctions many professional dart tournaments. The third major professional dart organization is the International Dart Players Association (IDPA). Unfortunately, there is only a handful of dart players who can expect serious earnings potential from competing as dart professional. Read on to learn how to become a professional dart thrower.

1.Buy some darts and a dartboard. You should purchase both “steel tip” and electronic “soft tip” darts.

2.Practice dart throwing long and hard with both tip types. There are many amateur dart tournaments which utilize one type or the other.

3.Join the ADO, IDPA or the ADL and pay the appropriate membership fees. The ADO sponsors regional tournaments. The International Dart Players Association sponsors tournaments around the world.

4.Compete as much as possible as an amateur in local dart tournaments. After you develop professional level dart throwing skills, you can move on to joining either the ADO, IDPA or ADL professional circuits. Both professional and amateur tournaments sometimes limit entrants to local residents or other limitations.

5.Compete in ADL, IDPA or ADO-sanctioned open tournaments. This is where the big money is. You’ll need to be flexible enough with your schedule to be able to compete on a professional level. The ADO sponsors tournaments which are often held in pubs or taverns.

6.Read directories of sanctioned dart tournaments and prize money offered in each tournament which can be found at the respective IDPA, ADL and ADO websites.
