About DARTSLIVE OFFICIAL LEAGUE
What do I need to do to join the DARTSLIVE OFFICIAL LEAGUE?
First of all, please submit an entry.
I want to know darts terms used for the DARTSLIVE OFFICIAL LEAGUE.
◆LEAGUE
This is a team competition where multiple teams compete in the round robin format. Each TEAM competes against all the other teams at HOME & AWAY venues.
◆SEASON
A period of time to complete all MATCHES.
A LEAGUE consists of several SEASONS.
Before each SEASON begins, we will be asking for a submission of TEAM Entry Application.
◆DIVISION
When there are many TEAM entries, those TEAMS are divided into several groups and within that group, TEAMS compete against each others in the round robin format.
These groups are called DIVISIONS.
A SEASON ends when all scheduled MATCHES for all DIVISIONS are completed.
◆MATCH
This is a set of GAMES played at a LEAGUE Shop on a LEAGUE day.
◆GAME
GAME POINTS are awarded to the winner of the GAME such as 501, CRICKET, MEDLEY and etc. The term "GAME" in the DARTSLIVE OFFICIAL LEAGUE situation describes each competition held between 2 TEAMS on a LEAGUE day and results of these GAMES determine the MATCH winner on each LEAGUE day.
◆GAME POINTS
GAME POINTS are awarded to the winner of the GAME and are given to both TEAM and participating players.
How long is one LEAGUE SEASON?
The length of SEASON varies depending on the number of TEAMS and MATCH SCHEDULE.
Please contact your ENTRY SHOP for details.
How are the team rankings in a season decided?
Rankings are based on the cumulative points of games and bonus in a season. If teams have the same cumulative points, followings are considered in the order for the ranking decision.
1.The team with more number of games won will be ranked higher.
2.The team with less number of games won will be ranked higher.
3.The team with more number of legs won will be ranked higher.
