If you are playing teams, a player selected from each team will shoot to select his team's number. Alternatively, if agreed, the team with the higher number can start. Prior to starting, both players or teams should determine how many points they will play for or set a time limit. A goal is scored by the player starting on his own double and continuing through his opponent's segment to his double. It therefore takes a minimum of eleven darts to obtain one goal.
Players alternate their throws and carry on where they left off.
For weaker players this game is a long hard plod across the board with little scoring action. The game can be played one on one, two on two or by yourself. It simulates the excitement of football by allowing you to score field goals and touchdowns complete with the extra point. All this and no broken bones. The game is played in quarters, with the 20s, 19s and 18s making up the first quarter.
