Is there an upper and lower limit to size and weight of darts used? and where is can I find reference on the same. Do you think our league should have restrictions?
a)Players must have undisturbed access to a set of darts. For example: use of bar darts, sharing darts with a non-playing person, and/or sharing darts with a doubles partner will be considered undisturbed for the purpose of this section.
b)Each dart will consist of a point that is fixed to a barrel ("Hammerhead", "Power Point", etc. styles of points are acceptable). A shaft/stem and flight will be attached at the rear of the barrel, which may consist of many pieces (i.e.: a flight, flight-securing device, flight protective device and a shaft/stem).
c)Any one dart may NOT:
i.Exceed an overall length of 12 inches (30 1/2 cm)
The General Rules Of Darts: The following rules are generally accepted for all games played with steel-tipped darts on a standard English dart board. There will always be some variations on these rules depending on area, game and people you might be playing with. Most of the rules I am not going to go into great detail about because of exactly this reason. I recommend if you are a beginner to be sure and check with your opponent(s) and/or partner(s) about any rulings until you are comfortable with the way the games are played in your area.
Any dart may be used provided it's total weight is under 55 grams.
The dart board and throw line are set up as described in Dart Board Setup.
Playing order is determined by a throw of one dart at bullseye from one player on each team. Closest to the bullseye goes first. If the first dart hits the bullseye, the next shooter has the option of removing the dart from the board. If the second shooter then hits the bullseye, another throw at bullseye is done with the throwing order reversed. If the dart is not removed from the board, and the second shooter hits the bullseye, the second player "wins" the bullseye.
Every Site i've found has a max weight .... there isn't a rule for darts being too light.
