ATTENTION TEAM CAPTAINS

We have changed the format from dropping of your game sheets at Oscar’s by N.L.T. Wednesday to …. taking a photo of the game sheets and emailing to drawmaster@dartsinthepark.com. We are still having some minor issues with a few teams. Discrepancies on player’s points are starting to occur and we are receiving calls and texts from players complaining that we haven’t put their high scores, or high outs on the stats on the web site. Let me clarify.

1. Team captains are to verify all player’s scores on both home and away game sheets including high outs, high scores, tons, and finishes. The only way to ensure this is not going to remain a problem, is for both home and away captains write down every high score, high finish, tons and finishes at the same time as they occur during game-play on both their sheets. We don’t want one team captain to keep scores and points and have the other captain simply copy the sheet at the end of the game.
2. It is both captains responsibilities to capture ALL scores as they occur on both team sheets no matter if your player has scored or the other team’s player has scored.
3. Captains are to the sign both sheets and then take a photo of the game sheet and email it to t.sampson@live.ca ON MONDAY NIGHT AFTER THE GAMES ARE FINISHED.
4. It is acceptable if one captain takes one photo of both game sheets together and emails them to the draw-master.
5. For the most part, almost all of you are doing everything right. We are 99% there. Lets put in an extra effort to make the game sheets accurate and sent in on Monday night after the games finish. Thank you for your continued co-operation.
6. Also, on an unrelated matter, please do not bring your own food or alcohol into any of the venues that already serve both. The only exception to the food rule is the Rugby Club because they do not have a kitchen where you can buy food.

27 November 2023

It has been brought to my attention that some teams have been “last minute” choosing a different venue that they want to play, other than their assigned venue, in conflict with the published schedules. This activity is to cease immediately. Teams have been assigned to play their pubs on the schedules, and additional staff is hired to accommodate our dart league. When teams don’t show up where they are supposed to be, this is an upset and a monetary loss in $$ to the venue. We have an on-going agreement with each venue and we will uphold our part of “the deal”. If a team continues to change the location of where they play, the stats will reflect a Zero for the evening for both teams not playing where they are supposed to play accordance with the published schedules.
