How to Play Online Darts and Why the DartsMatt League (DML) is the Most Inclusive, Easy-Going and Friendliest League Around

If you're looking for a fun, flexible, and inclusive way to play competitive darts from home, then online darts might be exactly what you need. Whether you’re new to the game or an experienced player, joining an online darts league can improve your skills, connect you with like-minded players, and add a new level of excitement to your darts experience.

In this blog post, we’ll guide you through how to play online darts and explain why the DartsMatt League (DML) is quickly becoming the most friendly and easy-going online darts league in the UK.

What is Online Darts?

Online darts allows players to compete remotely using video calling platforms like Zoom, Skype, or Messenger, combined with online scoring tools. All you need is:

• A standard dartboard

• A webcam or smartphone

• A reliable internet connection

• A free scoring app (like Nakka and occasionally DartConnect)

With this simple setup, you can play against people from across the country — or even across the world — all from the comfort of your own home.

How to Set Up for Online Darts

Setting up your online darts space is easier than you might think. Follow these steps:

1. Mount your dartboard at the regulation height and distance.

2. Set up a camera so your opponent can clearly see the board. A tripod or phone holder works well.

3. Choose a scoring platform like Nakka or DartConnect to make scoring simple and fair.

4. Use a video call to connect with your opponent and call out your scores.

Now you're ready to play!
