Youth Series 2019
ABOUT YOUTH SERIES 2019
With the sport of Darts becoming increasingly popular in the past few years, the DARTSLIVE Academy for Youth and i Darts X were formed to cater to the growing need to encompass a new generation of darters, where their talents could be cultivated from a younger age and enable them to rise higher and aim further than previous generations.
Good sportsmanship and etiquette are also encouraged to maintain the welcoming environment that keeps so many players in the game, and are doubtlessly important values to carry in any social interactions.
In that light, welcome to the Youth Series, a new collaboration between the DARTSLIVE Academy for Youth and i Darts X!
With its renewed focus on organized dart competitions for a new generation, the Youth Series promises to be the first premier platform for younger darters to showcase their talents and challenge other like-minded darters in the spirit of sportsmanship and self-development.
