We offer a Steel Tip Darts League on Monday and Tuesday Nights. We have Fall (August-December) Spring (January-May) and Summer (June - July).
You would simply come to one of our CPB Meetings and submit your roster in person or online at Metroplexdarts@gmail.com. Meetings are generally held in January, May and August each year. If you are looking for a team to play on, come see us during one of our league meetings or send us an email with your information and what night and division you'd like to play.
Our membership dues are 30.00 per person, which pays for two seasons, Fall (august) and Spring (January). If you only play in Spring it's a 15.00 fee. The bar/pub you play out of will have a 35.00 Pub Fee as well for each team.

Dues also go towards a any tournaments held by MDA throughout the league year, cost of food during the Championships and any other expense needed for league.
You can start your own team or join an already existing team. You can play on Monday or Tuesday nights during the Spring and Fall Leagues. You can only play on one team and that team can only play in one division and night.
We have an "A" and an "B" division and players can choose to play in either league they feel best suited. The "A" League is considered the more competitive division, where our "B" league is considered as a fun beginner type division. Both divisions have some great talented players!
MDA reserves the right to ensure fairness across the league and may determine a team or number of players on that team may not be eligible to play in B league.
Captains are responsible for collecting player dues and pub fees by their first home match at their pub of choice. Pub Fees are paid by the Pub/Bar you agree to play out of.
The pub/bar and Captain agree to meet the requirements for league play discussed in the Bylaws. A board member of MDA must be able to visit and ensure the area of play meets our standards. All players are expected to abide by the bylaws of MDA.
The Captain is required to show up to the Spring, Summer and Fall CPB meetings or send a team representative in their place if their team will be participating in league play.
In the absence of an MDA Bylaw, the ADO tournament rules booklet would be used to resolve the inquiry/issue. If no rule in ADO Booklet, the captain or player can bring a written request to the next CPB Meeting to have it addressed. If needed, the request can be sent to Metroplexdarts@gmail.com. The written request needs to be specific as possible.
In your Captain's folder, there are a couple "Add/Drop" sheets. You can add or drop players throughout the season. The last chance to add a player would be the 3rd from last match of the season. Please fill out the form legibly and completely, paying the dues via the paypal linked to our site or sending in a check via the envelope in your folder. Added players stats will be voided if player fee (if required) is not paid.
Each team can have up to 10 players on their roster including the captain. If you have 10 players and need to add another, you must drop a person from your current roster to add another. Please read the bylaws on adding and dropping players.

The scorekeeper when asked, can only tell a player what amount is left to attain or what has been scored with the darts that have been thrown. They may NOT tell what to shoot at. It is the player’s responsibility to throw at the right numbers. If he is told what to shoot at by someone and it is the wrong number, the darts stand as thrown and the correct score prevails. Once the final double has been thrown and duly noted by the scorer, the game is over.
