The Board
MEET THE TON UP BOARD
Not your traditional darts. Not even close.
Unlike trad darts, TonUp™ scoring is clean, fast, and brutally simple. There are no random numbers — every throw scores only one of five values:
Why?
Because the TonUp™ board is scored differently. Instead of numbered segments, the board is split into five circular scoring zones, already defined by the existing wires. No doubles or triples. No debates. Just hit and score.
Scoring Zones
(Everything else keeps the game tight, tactical, and fair)
Same board. Totally different game.
TonUp™ rewards accuracy, consistency, and nerve — not mental arithmetic.
THE RUNWAY
TonUp™ is played up and down the runway as the game progresses. Players throw from various positions marked on the runway, moving forward and backwards from the centre throw line.
In homage to the toughest of holes to find the lines are referred to as Tee's on a golf course (it'll make sense and grow on you as you play)
SUMMER
Summer Tee's, or as it's affectionally known, 'Donna' is the toughest of throw lines. It's a lot further than it looks.
REG'S
Regulation Tee or Reg's as it's abbreviated, is the centre of the game. *Tip - Learning to play par (15 points) from here will keep you in the running for every set.
LADIES
The shortest tee on the runway (nothing sexist here it's purely for reference consistency) and possibly the most mentally challenging. What should be so simple…
