Kept alive by a dedicated community of professional darts players, this unique social sport promises a lot of intrigue and hours of fun.
Read on to learn some key dart-throwing techniques from a professional player to elevate your shots!
A sport with a passionate fanbase
At Forest5 Darts Cafe at SAFRA Mount Faber, you can find plenty of competitive dart players who spend hours training for their next Super League. Fun fact – it is Singapore’s largest dart pub, which also houses the greatest number of local league teams. Equipped with 20 electronic dartboards, this darts training and recreation hub has plenty of space for both casual and competitive players to unwind over a few rounds at the dartboard.
Grab your darts and start throwing!
Leslie Lee, professional darts player from Dartslive shares some nifty tips to help improve your form and accuracy.
Tip 1: Focus on your stance, grip, and aim
Regardless of your familiarity with the sport, it is crucial that you never stop throwing! Like any skill, practice is key. Make sure to always adopt the proper stance and grip so that your aim is focused and deliberate.
Tip 2: Think before you throw
The best players are the most adaptable ones. Experiment with different throwing techniques so that you have a greater arsenal at your disposal. That way, you can react strategically to your environment.
Tip 3: Equipment matters
As the adage goes, dress for the job you want, not the job you have. You can enhance your experience simply by using accessories of good quality. The last thing you want is for your gear to hinder your playing experience.
