Darts, according to various sources, dates back about three hundred years. At first, this game was a simple entertainment for the soldiers of the British army, but over time it turned into a favorite sport of hundreds of thousands of darts players around the world. British archers got used to throwing darts at a tree or at the bottom of a beer barrel in the intervals between glasses of beer back in the Middle Ages. The invented game made it possible to organize competitions both outdoors and indoors. The arrows were shortened and used as darts. Determining the winner was difficult due to the lack of rules, so the proposal of carpenter Brian Gamlin from Lanksshire to divide the target into sectors was received with enthusiasm.
