Prize vouchers may only be cashed onsite for those 21 years of age and over. B. Be sanctioned by the NDA for the membership year and play in leagues ran by an NDA Charter Holder in good standing and in compliance with all league sanctioning guidelines. (Only league systems that have every player sanctioned are considered sanctioned leagues.) Compete during regular league play on qualified machines owned and operated by an NDA charter holder. C. Have played a minimum of 96 league games between May 11, February 12, Qualifying games must be obtained in no less than eight (8) separate weeks of league play.

Be entered in the tournament by the NDA Charter Holder on whose machine(s) they have completed the minimum game requirements for tournament entry. E. Have a NDA player skill rating using the Points Per Dart (PPD) and/ or Marks Per Round (MPR) performance rating system for the event in which they are entered, to be classified. These performance ratings require a player to compete in 24 games in a single season for that event. Minimum time to obtain a player-skill rating is eight (8) separate league nights in eight (8) separate weeks in the same league season. Players who have played 96 league games but do not have a valid PPD or MPR will be classified as a Master-Rated player and the Charter Holder will be billed for a Master Entry certificate. 2. All tournament teams must: A. Choose to compete in open or ladies masters but cannot compete in both for a single event. B. Declare a full team roster, including substitutes, when entry certificates are completed. C. Must play for the same Charter Holder and form a tournament team meeting the above criteria. Alternates for Doubles, Triples, and Teams: Teams may use an alternate from the same Charter Holder as long as the alternate player has competed in the same league format as the regular players. Regular team alternate should be entered on the regular player certificate. Violations of the above will void entries and be non refundable. 8

9 Player Classification In addition to meeting the eligibility requirements listed on the previous page, players must also comply with the following: 1. All players must be entered with their highest known player-skill rating, from league, for the qualifying period. This is the responsibility of your charter holder. Accuracy of player abilities are dependent upon the proper submission and documentation from your Charter Holder. 2. Player ability assessment may be determined by the tournament committee by any of the following criteria: a. Player- skill rating (as described previously. b. Review of previous NDA tournament performance, specifically but not limited to Team Dart c. Examination of overall local league ratings. d. Known ability. All decisions made by the Tournament Committee are final. 3. Master Rated Criteria: a. Players with the player-skill rating of 32 PPD and 3.5 MPR will be considered Masters Players and will play in Masters Singles events and no lower than level 1 in Doubles events. Individuals/ teams that meet/exceed the following team sums will be considered Masters Teams. Event Team Maximum Doubles Maximum Singles Maximum Open PPD 64 PPD 32 PPD Open Cricket 14 MPR 7 MPR 3.5 MPR Mixed Doubles Combo 6.5 MPR 3.5 MPR & 32 PPD Mixed Triples Combo 10 MPR 3.5 MPR & 32 PPD b. Master Rating may also be awarded to players who: Are without verifiable player-skill rating (e.g. Double in/ Double out statistics) These players will play in Masters only. Placed in the money in an NDA Master s level event within the last year. Show known ability by top placement in an NDA manufacturers sponsor s major tournament. Pro lists will be reviewed, but not automatically placed into Masters. Are dominant players in either soft or steel-tip darting. Two Master-rated players on ANY team must play in the Masters level. 9

10 Player Classification c. For mixed Triples Combo, both the Open Cricket and 01 player rating will be used to determine Master-rated players. d. Ladies that choose to register for non- Ladies Masters events (singles, doubles, mixed doubles, and team) will be classified based on the Master Criteria. e. Ladies that choose to register for non- Ladies Masters events (singles, doubles, mixed doubles and team) will be classified based on the Master criteria. 4. Standardized league results are the only accepted statistics. All recorded player-skill ratings are achieved using the actual darts thrown. In addition, the following are standard formats for game play to calculate a player skill rating: 01 Cricket Open in/ Open out format 8-foot foul line 8 foot foul line 15 1/2 target face 15 1/2 target face Split 50/25 point bull s eye Full 50-point bull s eye Consistent tracking of player-skill ratings for each event is required. Submission of these ratings must show the cumulative accomplishments of each player. Failure to properly track or use of nonstandard formats (e.g. Double In/ Double Out) will force a player to be moved to a Masters Event. 5. Double In/ Double Out Statistics Fairness and competitive brackets are very important to players. Help NDA keep Team Dart fair and fun for all players by ensuring that you are submitting the correct stats for your 01 players. Double In/ Double Out (Master In/ Master Out) is not a standard format for 01 qualification. While DI/DO games can count toward the minimum 96 game requirement, statistics from these games CANNOT BE USED to qualify players for 01 events. If a player has only DI/DO stats, they do not have a valid skill rating and will play in the highest level of Masters. If a player has DI/DO stats and Open In/ Open out stats, they must be kept separate and the player must have at least 24 games of OI/OO games over 8 separate weeks of play.
