Gameplay

Every Wednesday night at 7 pm, our games get underway. The nine games are all 501, and are 'fly in, double out'. If gameplay continues past 9 pm, the games switch to 301. Starting team is chosen by a 'diddle for the middle', and the losing team keeps score for the first game. Scorekeeping alternates between teams after that.

If a teammate can't come to a session, a spare player will be assigned, if available. If not, a weighted 'ghost' player will be used.

The first 3 games include all 3 players on each team. The next is a pairs game between the #1 and #3 player on each team, then the #2 and #3, then the #1 and #2. The final 3 games once again include all 3 players on each team. This way everyone gets a one game break during the evening.

Score sheets are provided at the start of each game night, and these indicate the night's team pairings and assigned board number. The stats are totalled on the sheet and signed to end the night. The statistician provides updated stats and standings compilation usually within a day or so on this website and by emails, as well as in printed form at the next darts night.
