On Monday and Wednesday of this week I participated in this areas biggest DART event (approximately 200 players on 48 - four person teams over three days)! Unfortunately I was not a player, but I did serve as a score keeper.
The event was the City of Ventura - Corporate Games 2005 and it was very exciting to see so many dart players come together to compete in a spirit of fun and friendship. While this event was not sponsored by our dart association but we did take the opportunity to help out by providing score keepers for the three day event. We saw this as an opportunity for some positive gains for both the Corp Games participants and the our dart association. We helped by; allowing the teams competing to shoot without worry of who's keeping score, some of the players without darts experience got some tips on throwing techniques and strategies, free up the organizer to focus on running the event, and to our benefit we got the opportunity to promote our league with fliers and surveys. We are trying to grow darts as a competitive sport as well as a social activity.
Any feedback on how darts are promoted in your area?
