Teams are made up of 7 or more players. The player throwing the darts is the "batter". Each dart thrown is the same as a pitch in baseball. Where the dart lands on the board determines the outcome of each pitch. The batter continues to throw darts, or bat, until they are safe or out, just like in baseball. Most players try to hit the single first, which is on the right side of the board. Hitting t
he single puts a "runner" on first. Hitting the triple then scores the runner from first. The batter and all runners advance the same number of bases as the number hit. All white is safe. All orange is out. Green is foul, grey is a strike. Like baseball, three strikes and the batter is out. The board players throw at is 20 feet away, 4 feet by 4 feet and 2 feet off the floor. Each section on an official dart board has a wire surrounding it, so there is never a disagreement about where the dart lands on the board. Our league keeps track of many different types of statistics including team standings and individual stats. At our end of the year banquet, we hand out team and individual awards (league champion, best batting average, most singles, most triples, most RBIs, MVP, Rookie of the Year and others).
