Darts or dart-throwing is a competitive sport in which two or more players bare-handedly throw small sharp-pointed missiles known as darts at a round target known as a dartboard.
Soft tip darts have flexible plastic tips and you throw them at a plastic board with molded holes in it, which hold onto the point of the dart. These darts are commonly used on electronic machines, which score automatically.
Points can be scored by hitting specific marked areas of the board, though unlike in sports such as archery, these areas are distributed all across the board and do not follow a principle of points increasing towards the center of the board.
e-Darts is the official online version of the Soft Darts. According to the international instructions given by the IOC, all the federations should try to develop its version of virtual sport. esports is very interesting for IDF and IDF has already deployed the esports series relating the soft darts: e-darts
