1. Communication is essential: Always introduce yourself at the start of the game, get to know your opponent, and wish your opponent good luck (“Shoot well”).



2. Maintain a quiet environment: Ensure you play in a setting free from background distractions, such as music, pets, or family members.



3. Audibility: It is crucial that your opponent can hear you. Adjust your settings accordingly if they can’t.



4. Board visibility: In online darts, board vision is paramount. Position your camera to capture a clear view of all board segments.
If using a smartphone, your phone should be rotated horizontally. 


5. Call out your score: Always verbalize your score before retrieving your darts from the board.



6. Enter your score: Make sure to input your score on DartConnect before pulling out your darts.



7. Dart retrieval: If your darts land near the wire or if you’re hitting big numbers, retrieve each dart individually. This is especially important when finishing a leg or match.



8. No distractions: Refrain from distracting your opponent with unnecessary talking or noises.



9. Avoid game delays: Do your best to keep the game flowing without unnecessary interruptions.



10. Scoring pauses: Always wait for your opponent to enter their score in DartConnect before throwing your darts.



11. Commit to scheduled matches: Honor your commitments by making all scheduled matches.



12. Full effort: Always play at 100% and avoid any attempts to manipulate league standings.



13. Be prepared: Keep in mind that dart equipment (shafts, flights, tips) can break, so have replacements ready.



14. Break announcements: If you need to take a break during the match, inform your opponent beforehand. Both players must agree on any breaks taken.



15. Respectful language: Refrain from using vulgar or offensive language towards any player or team member.



16. Mention your time zones: This helps to avoid any confusion while scheduling matches.



17. Be respectful: Show courtesy and respect to players at all times.



By adhering to these simple etiquette rules, we can ensure a focus on the game of darts, enabling fun and competitive matches for everyone involved.
