Steel Tip Darts

---

Steel tip dart playing involves throwing sharp, metal-tipped darts at a circular dartboard to score points. The dartboard is divided into numbered sections, with higher points awarded for hitting smaller, more difficult areas. Players typically aim for the bullseye and the treble 20, the highest scoring sections.

This game requires precision, skill, and strategy.

The popularity of steel tip darts is global, with a particularly strong following in Europe, North America, and Asia. It is played both recreationally in pubs and competitively in leagues and tournaments. Major competitions, like the PDC World Darts Championship, attract millions of viewers and offer substantial prize money, showcasing the sport’s widespread appeal. The game’s accessibility, combined with the excitement of high-stakes matches, contributes to its enduring popularity worldwide.

Canberra holds regular steel tip events at numerous venues for both competition (solo and teams) and social games.
