I am new to the dart leagues, so I was hoping to find some help in getting started. I have played for many years but never anywhere organized. I consider myself a decent player with good consistency. I have no idea where to start though. I see there are different classes of leagues. Do I automatically start at the bottom? Where can I get a list of participating bars or taverns in my area? I live in Lyndhurst but I would travel to play (within reason). A little help anybody? Thanks.
:D :D :D :D :D

A good starting point would be to play some weekly trails tournaments to get a feel for where you may fit into as far as level of play at the CDC. And meet other darters too.

I will give that a shot then, thank you. Also, can you recommend a good place to get a nice set? And/or a specific brand that is a good deal?

Anglo-American is in Parma. They have a variety of choices in darts and good people that can help you decide.

I personaly never look at brand or cost until I feel comfortable throwing a set or two.

Here is another site that has some good info and tips.

Sorry it took so long for me to reply I have been on vacation :D
