Scoring Rules

The Rules for Team Minnesota Darts league play originate from those of our sanctioning body, the National Dart Association.

An accurate Player Performance Rating is vital to ensure fair and competitive league play. We use the two most advanced Player Performance Rating tools available to date. By tracking the Dart Player’s ability, we are able to develop a bracketed league format, which allows all skill levels of Players to compete against those of their own ability.

MPR & PPD

Mark Per Round (MPR) and Point Per Dart (PPD) are systems used to average every dart thrown by a Player. A Player may only throw one quality dart during a game, but may be playing consistently good darts throughout the entire match. Not averaging their score would incorrectly state their ability. These two rating or averaging systems correct this discrepancy.

The MPR averages the marks that a Player throws each turn in a game of cricket. MPR is calculated by taking the total marks scored, dividing it by the actual darts thrown, and then multiplying it by 3. The higher the MPR, the more advanced the skill of the Player.

The PPD averages the points that a Player throws for each dart in a ’01 game. PPD is calculated from taking the total points scored and dividing it by the number of actual darts thrown. The higher the PPD, the more advanced the skill level of the Player.
