The new electronic system has opened up easier data collection during matches.
The basic rules to darts are as follows:
In a game of 501 the object is for one player or a team to be the first to reach zero from starting total of 501.
In simple terms, after three darts are thrown, the throwing player subtracts the total scored from his current total until he reaches zero.
In order to reach zero each player must finish by throwing a double.
If player one has 36 remaining he must hit double 18 to win.
If player two has 45 remaining he must hit single 5, double 20 to win or a another combination of scores provided the final dart scores on a double.
