In any sport or game, it’s natural to want to perform to the best of your ability, it increases your overall enjoyment and satisfaction. But what do you do if you’re looking to improve your darts game? If you practice a lot but don’t identify and correct mistakes in your game, you may end up frustrated, but darts training is not widely available. Let me share some quick and simple tips to add some sparkle to your dart game:

1. Get the basics right

Ignore the basics at your peril, your game needs a solid foundation. Have a comfortable stance with good balance, throw with a straight forearm and go all the way while keeping your body as still as possible.

2. Practice regularly

It is very difficult to improve your darts game if you are not willing to practice regularly. I’m not talking about just pressing some darts on the board to pass the time. I am referring to totally focused sessions where you work on different aspects of your game. Even just 30 minutes of quality practice 3 days a week can make a world of difference.

3. Join a team

Regular league play is a great way to get better at darts and can be a lot of fun. You will improve as you play against strong opponents and practice with your team.

4. Participate in competitions

There is nothing better than the thrill of competition. Hone your skills with matchplay darts, the ultimate test of your throw and bottle. Participating in local darts events will be challenging, fun, and a great way to improve your darts game.

5. Look to the professionals

You can learn a lot by watching top professionals play on TV. Become an avid dart viewer and let the professionals help you in your dart game.

6. Work on your weaknesses

Identify the areas of your game that need improvement and create a practice schedule that targets those areas. You will become a better player in every way.

7. Seek advice

Get some darts training from a more experienced player or a good quality training course. Even Phil Taylor is constantly striving to find ways to become a better player.

8. Throw with confidence.

Take a positive dart throwing action with a good rhythm. Throw darts with a newfound confidence and expect to hit your target every time.

9. Visualize success

Picture yourself hitting those triple 20’s over and over again in your mind, see yourself winning as you hit that winning double. Don’t discount the power of positive thinking and practice visualization regularly.

10. Enjoy your darts

Above all, you must enjoy your darts, otherwise what is the point of playing? Enjoy the challenge, look forward to practice and games as you try to become the best player you can be.
