Darts is most likely the first sport most British kids myself included will play first in their lifes, mine was down the pub with my dad as a 4/5 year old whilst he was drinking with friends and family every Sunday afternoon.

Getting started on a dart board is quite easy though with just a few rules to remember and the rest will come whilst you get better, darts is a game you can play on your own or between two players or two teams with as many as you want in each team, in most circumstances the player that hits closest to the bulls eye in two practice throws starts the game or leg as it is called in darts.

Once the game starts you will have a white line which you must not cross while you throw your three darts at the board, the two most popular games of first to either 301 or 501 make it difficult when you get down to the lower numbers of the total needed because you have to finish or win each leg by hitting a double of the relevant number you are aiming at, for instance if you needed 40 you would need to hit double 20 for example, if you needed 38 you would need double 19, the double segments are on the outer ring of the dart board and the treble segments (x3) are around the middle ring of the board.
