Every Professional Darts Corporation tournament is operated under the rules laid down by the Darts Regulation Authority. Click here to see the DRA Rule Book, downloadable as a PDF (current as of 2015). Below is a basic guide for beginners to the sport of darts. There are a number of different versions of the sport and also a number of different dartboards which are used around the world. Here you can find details of the most commonly played version - 501 - used in all PDC events on a standard dartboard. Standard height from the floor to the bullseye on the dartboard is 5 feet 8 inches, while the oche (distance between the front of the board and the toeline) should measure 7 feet 9.25inches. Basic Rules: In a game of 501 the object is for one player or a team to be the first to reach zero from starting total of 501.
