Hitting on the double ring counts as two and the triple ring counts as three.įor example, if you land one dart in the white segment under the 19 and then one dart in the double ring area under the 19, you would have attained three 19s and would close it out.

If you throw in the white area of one of the target number segments, that counts for one of the three you need. When you get three of that number, you close it. Your goal is to “close” each of those six numbers then get a double bulls-eye. #2 As you play, you target only the number segments of 15 through 20 and the bulls-eye. If you both land in the same color bulls-eye area, it’s a tie and you rethrow. If you tie, the last person to throw will be the first to throw in a rematch to see who starts the game. Then you both throw in order and the one closest to a bulls-eye starts the game. #1 To start a game of cricket, you flip a coin for first throw.
