Darts Instructions

Darts is an enduringly popular pastime. It has been played in its current format ever since the invention of the modern dartboard numbering system by an English carpenter in 1896.Darts is a game of skill, and it takes serious practice to become good enough to regularly chalk up the maximum score of 180 with three darts. However, even a beginner can quickly learn the rules and stands a great chance of hitting the bull's-eye.

1.Attach the dartboard to the wall, with the center of the board 1.73 m from the floor. Use a dartboard cabinet to surround the board, protecting the wall in case a player misses the target (the cabinet will also include scoreboards). Ensure your playing area is well-lit.

2.Measure the distance to the throwing line ("oche") as 2.37 m from the front of the dartboard. Mark the oche in any appropriate manner, but do not draw a permanent line on the floor if this is undesirable.

3.Write the names of both players on the scoreboard and start the scoring at 501. Player One throws three darts at the dartboard from the oche. Add up the total score from the three darts, then subtract it from Player One's total of 501. Player Two then takes her turn to throw three darts.

4.To win, a player must reduce his score from 501 to zero. The player must also reach exactly zero with his final dart, by hitting either a double section of the dartboard, or the central ring of the bull's-eye.

5.If the player hits a single or treble section to reach or exceed zero, his score from that entire turn is canceled, and the turn passes to the other player. For example, if a player's score is on 18, he wins by hitting double nine. However, if he hits single 18 ortreble six, he forfeits the rest of her turn and remains on 18 points.
