Basic Rules
 
 
 
  • The dart board should be hung on the wall so that the center of the bulls-eye is 5 feet 8 inches from the ground.  A foul line should be measured 8 feet from the face of the dart board.  The foul line is where the darts should be thrown.  Your feet must not cross the line, but you may release the dart over the line. 
 
  • The standard diameter for a tournament dart board is 15.5 inches.
 
  • The official size for a dart may be any length as long as they do not exceed 8" in total length.  Complete darts may not exceed 18 grams in weight.  Flights may be no wider than 3/4", measured from shaft to flight edge, they may not have more than four wings.
 
  • Each player is allowed to throw 3 darts per turn.  It is not required for them to throw all 3 if they choose not to.
 
  • A round is defined as the period of time from the end of a player's turn to the start of their next turn.
 
  • Any dart thrown counts as a throw, whether or not it is registered on the machine. A throw counts if it misses the board and bounces out, or if it misses the board completely. A player may not throw any darts over again. Dropped darts may be thrown again.
