Visiting Darter – Paul (Dartoid) Seigel will be back in Bangkok 18 – 22 July 2017. Yup, our good friend is back again ready to face whatever darts challenge we can put before him. This time – Bangkok’s most popular darts gal – the lovely Miss Jeaby is calling up all her darts “troops” to yet again demonstrate to “Dartoid” that the the Bangkok darts gals will again “kick his arse” years after his first attempt. Stay tuned and we’ll be announcing exact dates and venues as Paul’s visit get closer. Be sure and check out Paul’s website – http://dartoidsworld.net/

REGULAR WEEKLY DARTS EVENTS – These are open to all and especially popular with the many darts players visiting Thailand throughout the year. Each one has an advert is in our accompanying photo gallery.
– Fridays – “Darts at the Fish” at Starfish Bar in Phuket. This excellent darts venue seems to just get better and better especially with their Friday nights darts. A definite “must see” for all darts players visiting Phuket.
-Fridays – “Lucky Draw” at The Sportsman. Bangkok’s largest darts venue attracts a good crowd of regulars and is open to all visiting darts players. Another “must see” for all darts players visiting Bangkok.
-Saturdays – “Darts Lucky Draw @ 101/1” – Sadly the long-time popular darts venue Domino is now just a memory. But Domino publicans Dew & Peter saved enough of the bar and darts and have it set up in a new condo and their Saturday night darts tradition continues
– Sundays- “Why Darts” at New Cowboy Darts Club & Restaurant hosts a popular informal doubles comp. No where else in the darts world does the prestigious MVP (Most Valuable Player) Darts Hat exist. MVP is voted by all the players on a night – a must visit and give it your best at attaining this esteemed darts award.

Remember that if you have any darts event – please let us know and we’ll be happy to publicize it on DT. For any last minute events – you can post on our FB Discussion Group. As well if you have any further questions about events in this article – https://www.facebook.com/groups/dartsthailand/
