Get ready for a steady stance. Leaning forwards or backwards is tempting, but offers the thrower less stability than if he/she were to stand upright.

 

For right-handed players, keep your right foot in front and your left foot in back. Most of your weight should be resting on your right foot, although you don't want to be leaning forward excessively.

For left-handed players, keep your left foot in front and your right foot in back. Most of your weight should be resting on your left foot, although you don't want to be leaning forward excessively.

 

Keep both feet firmly planted. You will want to keep your balance throughout the throw. Otherwise, you may pull or push the dart off in an unintended direction.

 

Get the right fingering on a dart. Take the dart in your dominant hand's palm and run it through your fingers until you find the center of gravity. Put your thumb a bit behind the center of gravity while placing at least two, and possible four, other fingers on the dart. Do what feels comfortable for you.

 

Keep the tip of dart up slightly, and try to move it as straight forward and backward as possible. Any extraneous movement here means that the dart will not fly straight.

 

Smoothly launch the dart straight forward. Do not throw too hard, it is unnecessary and dangerous.

Darts do not need a great deal of force to stick into the dartboard. Remember, the goal of the game is to score points, not determine who is strongest.

Know that every dart board is the same. Each board is numbered from 1 - 20 in non-sequential order around the board. You play darts by throwing a small dart onto different parts of the board, counting your points as you go.

 

Notice that the board is split into distinct sections. Each section has points associated with that section. If a dart lands in the outer green or red sections, the thrower scores double that section's number of points.

 

For example, if you land inside the double ring under 18, you would score 36 points.

Know what happens when the dart lands in an "inner" red or green section. If a dart lands in the inner small green or red sections, the thrower scores triple that section's number of points.

If you land inside the triple ring under 18, for example, you would score 54 points.

 

Understand that the center of the board is called the bullseye. The bullseye is further split into two sections. The inner section (usually red) is called the "double bull" or "cork," and the outer section (usually green) is known as the "single bull" or just "bull."

If a dart lands in the green part of the bullseye, the thrower scores 25 points.

 

Know that the rest of the board is split into 20 separate sections, each with a number allocated to that section. If a dart lands in a (usually) yellow or black section, the thrower scores that number of points.

 

Let's say you land an 18 in a single point area. You would receive exactly 18 points.
