Welcome to the UoG Darts Society!
This Society is a safe environment open to all, whether you play, just enjoying watching or know nothing at all, come along and see what it’s all about. With weekly meetups every Tuesday from 7pm in the Francis Close Hall student union bar, you can actively hone your skills at the game of darts or just have a relaxed session amongst friends. Weekly attendance is not necessary and coming when suits you best is encouraged.
Being part of a university darts Society allows us the opportunity of participating in the University Darts UK league, where we would compete against other unis hopefully taking back the win for UoG! Participation in the league won’t be mandatory at all and there will always be a space for you to try-out if you wish!
Last year we ran a tournament for the UDUK called the Cotswolds Classic where all the unis from our league and more took part in a singles tournament to take home the trophy and top prize of £70! Our own Welfare Officer Bronwyn Flook took the win for the women's tournament! We plan to run this competition again so keep an eye out!
Alongside the league and tournaments, we plan to run an in-house league with prizes going out to winners and runners up.
If competing isn’t your thing and you just enjoy watching the sport, feel free to come along and talk about professional games past and upcoming major televised matches with similar likeminded people.
At a £1 joining fee, what’s stopping you! Join today and come have fun. And, in the words of the great Sid Waddell, "as giraffes say, you don’t get no leaves unless you stick your neck out!"
Game on!
