Darts

Darts is a precision sport in which players throw small, pointed missiles (known as darts) at a circular target (or dartboard) fixed to a wall. The dartboard is segmented into numbered sections that represent different point values, and players aim to score points by hitting specific areas on the board. The game can be played in various formats and rules, with the most common being “501,” where players start with a score of 501 and aim to reduce their score to exactly zero by hitting designated sections, including a final shot to a “double” segment. Darts requires skill, accuracy, and careful strategy, and it is popular in pubs and competitive settings, often featuring professional tournaments. The game has a long history and is enjoyed worldwide, both informally and in organized leagues.
