Is a 68 Darts Average Good?
Hitting a 68 three-dart average and wondering where that ranks? It places you at League / Club level. Here is how 68 compares to every skill level, what moves the number next, and how to track your progress.
Is a 68 average good?
A 68 three-dart average is a genuinely good club-level number — it places you at League / Club level (55–74). At this stage you are regular trebles and the occasional 140 — solid amateur level. The next natural target is a 70 average — chase it by raising your first-nine scoring and tightening your checkout percentage.
How a 68 average compares
These ranges are typical rather than official — averages move with the format, the night and the opponent. Here is where 68 sits:
| Level | 3-dart average | What it looks like |
|---|---|---|
| Beginner | under 40 | still learning the board and grouping your darts |
| Hobby / Casual | 40–54 | comfortable scoring with the odd 60 or 100 visit |
| League / Club | 55–74 | regular trebles and the occasional 140 — solid amateur level ← you |
| Semi-Pro / Advanced | 75–94 | consistent first-nine scoring and reliable checkouts |
| Professional | 95+ | tour-card scoring — a 100 average is the elite line |
What to improve next
To move from League / Club toward Semi-Pro / Advanced (75–94), focus on raising your first-nine scoring and tightening your checkout percentage. Two things move a 3-dart average more than anything else: scoring power (hitting the treble 20 more often) and cutting dead visits (turns under 26 that wreck the maths).
- Drill your scoring with structured practice routines.
- Stop leaking legs by raising your checkout percentage.
- Build a repeatable throw with sound throwing technique.
