FIVE REASONS TO ATTEND OUR NEXT ADO QUALIFIER

If you've never attended, you're missing out on a great day filled with competitive darts at little cost other than your time.  Here are FIVE more reasons you should be attending:

  1. Help support the MMDL in proudly sending our best of the best players to represent us in National and International competitions.
  2. Play for the practice, improve your game, win more on league night.  You'll play a full day of darts against both new and experienced players, witness how the best players play the game and pick up pointers you can immediately put to use.  Consider it like a clinic for darts.
  3. Surprise yourself and become nationally ranked.  The more you play ADO events and the more successful you become, you'll earn ranking points and be listed among the nation's best ADO shooters.  Our region is one of the largest and offers more opportunities to earn ranking points than most of the USA, so it's not a stretch for improving players to make the list and move up over time.
  4. Meet new people who share your interest in playing a lot of darts!  It's never a bad thing to expand your dart network and make some friends that could end up future team mates on a championship squad.
  5. It has been scientifically proven that throwing more darts can help you lose weight, live longer, win the lottery, make unicorns real and improve your love life.  Ok, ok, we couldn't come up with a real fifth reason...
