Find a darts club
Where to find darts clubs near you, what to look for when choosing and how getting started works
A darts club is the quickest way to regular practice, league matches and new people. Here you'll learn how to find clubs near you, what sets steel-tip clubs apart from soft-tip clubs and how a trial session works.
Clubs near you All darts clubs
“Darts club near me” is one of the most common searches in the darts world. Understandably so: anyone who wants to practise regularly needs a place with good boards, fixed times and fellow players at different levels. DartCloud lists darts clubs in Germany, Austria and Switzerland with address, practice times, discipline and contacts. This guide helps you choose the club that suits you.
Steeldart or e-dart?
The first decision is the discipline. Steeldart is played with metal points on sisal boards, from a distance of 2.37 metres; it's the discipline of the PDC pros and of most traditional darts clubs. E-dart (soft-tip) runs on electronic machines with plastic points, 2.44 metres distance, often in pubs and venues, organised in its own leagues. Many clubs play both. On every club page you can see which discipline is on offer.
What to look for when choosing a club
- Practice times: do they fit your everyday routine? Are there open sessions without membership?
- Level: does the club play in leagues, and are there teams for beginners?
- Distance: a club you can reach in 15 minutes gets visited more often than the perfect club 40 kilometres away.
- Boards and rooms: number of boards, lighting, space for several players at once.
- Youth and women's training, if that matters to you.
- Fees and joining: the terms are usually on the club page, or you can ask at the trial session.
How getting started works
From first contact to membership
Choose a club
Browse clubs nearby, check training times and discipline, follow the club on DartCloud.
Get in touch
Message them via the club page or just turn up to an open training session. Bringing your own darts is welcome, but not a must.
Trial session
Play along, get to know how things work, ask questions. Almost every club offers at least one free trial session.
Become a member
Fill in the membership form, sort out the fee, and apply for a player licence for the league if needed.
What a club does for you
Training regularly with players who are better than you is the biggest lever for your Average. On top of that come league matches with real competitive pressure, club tournaments, trips to tournaments, and an environment that gets you to the board even on bad days. Many clubs use DartCloud for registrations, team management and messages to members, so you're involved right away.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find a darts club near me?
On DartCloud under “Nearby” or in the club search by location. Every club page shows training times, discipline, contact details and location.
How much does membership in a darts club cost?
Each club sets that itself. The terms are usually listed on the club page, or you can ask at a trial session.
Can I join a darts club as a complete beginner?
Yes. Most clubs welcome newcomers and have teams in lower leagues where you can gain experience.
Do I need my own darts for the trial session?
No, clubs usually have darts to lend. But your own darts make sense once you train regularly.
What's the difference between steeldart and e-dart clubs?
Steeldart: metal points, sisal board, 2.37 metres. E-dart: plastic points, electronic machine, 2.44 metres. Many clubs offer both.
