Anyone that needs a board brought to the state tournament, please place your order by March 1st. Orders after March 1 will not be guaranteed a board. More information about the boards and contact information can be found at his website Handcrafted Dartball Boards. 

The tournament was a success!  It was wonderful to see dartball shooters from across the state.  Thanks to all those that participated and to Scott Peterson and his crew for setting up the Stadium View Bar & Grill.  It was a great place!

Please see Tournament Results page for full results.

We used a tablet to score the results for both teams at each board.  It went very well.  Some of the stats did not upload live during the tournament but based on the app design all stats were saved on the tablets and are now available on the website.

The tablets allowed the creation of a Tournament Summary page.

From any Tournament page you can click links on the right such as:

Attention dartball players:

Kenosha Monday 3 person Dartball League.
Join us for our 2nd year!
Due to the old venue, Danish Brotherhood, being burned down in the Kenosha riots I have just secured The Moose Lodge at 3003 30th Ave Kenosha as the new venue. The league will take place at this venue each and every week. There is plenty of room.
They are investing in new boards and stands.
The kitchen and bar will be open during leagues and a wide variety of food will be available for purchase.

If you are interested in getting your team into the Monday league or getting more info get ahold of me, Brian Niese, at 262-359-1830.

A few things to keep in mind about the league.
It's a 3 person league but you can also shoot with 4 or 5.
You can get 35-65 at bats a night. You can go for any base and the handicap is 75% and is established after the first week.

We are still deciding what the maximum number of teams we want in the league “this year” given what’s happening in the world and what precautions will be made.

Save your spot. Please forward this email to other people you think may be interested in this new league.

I look forward to hearing from some players.

Thanks
Brian Niese

We wish all of you the best in your upcoming dartball seasons and also that you all remain healthy.

Thanks

There are more king rooms available at Ho Chunk for the state tournament on Oct 3-4.  There is a two night minimum.

Also a plan has been worked out to ensure plenty of social distancing space between teams.
