Private darts practice rooms

Post by wazzanwf » Wed Jan 03, 2018 5:42 pm

Hi Everyone

Newbie here

I have inherited a large shop from my parents i was thinking of kitting it out as a private darts practice centre having 5 darts booths with electric scorers training aids etc also selling a selection of darts where people could come and practice in peace with no distraction of home pubs etc.

I love darts and play a lot at home but struggle to concentrate with kids it is something i would of used if there was something like that near me.

Was just trying to get some feedback of other players.

Would anyone use it if there was one where you was based.

Or if this is just something i would like or if this is a viable business idea for the shop i inherited.

Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks

wazza

And any additional info that would persuade other player to use a practice centre

I think the vast majority of the people would prefer a pub over a practice oriented place. Sure it's good to play without distraction but then you might as well have a dartboard at home. But it's only a night out for most, socialising and drinking, the pub atmosphere is just as important as the actual darts.

Doesn't sound like a winning idea to me, but what do I know.

If you want to make money out of a darts enterprise you have to include booze and food.
A private booth idea just sounds pointless, can set that up at home.

If it's big enough a dedicated darts and sport bar would make money mate. Location would be a factor of course

Rileys bars covered too much floor space to thrive en masse
