The NDFC is pursuing Sport Canada recognition and funding for the Sport of Darts
Although many provinces have recognized darts as a sport, Sport Canada has unjustly and inaccurately predetermined that darts is a “game of skill” and has combined it together in the same category as Chess, Bridge, Scrabble and electronic games
As a result, this disqualifies the sport of darts from ever being fairly evaluated and recognized for funding at the federal level. The NDFC is calling on all Dart Players in Canada, member or non-member, to sign our petition to get the attention of the Federal Government to rectify this prejudice. Can you Help?
Please go to the NDFC Website to read and sign the Petition.
Just a word to let everyone know we all need to band together on this one.
There are millions of dollars out there for sports organizations and even though Alberta does receive recognition from ASRPWF there would be access to more funding once Sports Canada brings darts on as a mainstream sport.
The numbers we predict for this petition will undoubtedly prove that fact.
Hopefully within a few months the numbers will dictate an earlier submission to the feds in our quest for the recognition it deserves.
So feel free to pass this on to non members as well as service clubs, we need to unite for this to work.

President NDFC.
