“People can come and play the game and meet some new people,” he said.

The league, which began in 1979, attracts players from across central Victoria.

Each team comprises of a minimum of four players.

With each game consisting of two doubles matches and four singles matches, reverse singles matches and a team’s game.

Hughes said darts had continued to grow in popularity, thanks to live telecasts of championship tournaments.

“There is a crazy number of people going to watch darts.”
