This show is sponsored by the wonderful people at www.target-darts.co.uk
The dartboard is only a couple of metres away… so why on earth is darts SO difficult?! 🎯😵💫
In this episode of Darts For Kids, we discover the incredible science behind throwing a dart, why the doubles and trebles are MUCH smaller than they look on television, and how the tiniest change in your hand, arm or release can send a dart miles away from where you wanted it!
We’ll explore muscle memory, concentration, pressure and the astonishing skill professional players need to repeat almost exactly the same throw again and again.
Turns out, the board might be close… but hitting it exactly where you want is another story entirely! 🎯
