The Junior Darts Corporation gives our players a structured, nationally recognised way to track progress and compete beyond the session itself.
The JDC runs six seasons a year, each lasting eight weeks. Players work through a set practice routine every week, with scores logged via the GoDartsPro app and passed automatically to the JDC and our Academy Order of Merit.
Coloured medals and club shirts reflect a player's skill level, based on their average across their best six scores in a season. A season average of 1250+ earns Gold.
The Equalizer handicap system means players of different abilities can compete fairly. Category 1 and 2 players activate their Equalizer by hitting a set score, then finish the leg with a single dart into the zone. Category 3 (Scratch) plays standard rules — 501, finishing on a double. Equalizer has succeeded the previous Green Zone board as JDC's official training and handicap system, on upgraded Blade 6 Dual Core boards — the same core concept, on newer hardware.
One routine can be recorded per week, always live and in person with a coach — never remotely. Missed weeks lock automatically once the week ends. Players need at least six recorded scores across the eight-week season to qualify for a handicap.
