If you’re starting from scratch, focus on the essentials first:
You can buy a dartboard online at INTERSPORT. As a premier darts shop, we proudly carry brands such as Target and Formula Sports, whether you’re setting up for casual throws, sharpening your aim or getting ready for more competitive games.

A bristle dartboard is the standalone playing board, while a cabinet set gives you a more complete home setup with doors that help protect the wall and conceal the board when it is not in use. Some sets also include extras. For example, the Formula Sports Bushranger Cabinet Set includes a bristle board, two sets of brass darts and a chalkboard scoreboard.
Yes. Traditional bristle dartboards are designed for steel-tip darts, while electronic dartboards typically use soft-tip darts to avoid damaging the scoring surface. If you are replacing or upgrading your darts, match the tip type to the board you already own.
There is no single best dart weight, as it depends on how you throw. Lighter darts can suit players who prefer a quicker release, while heavier options may feel steadier in the hand. INTERSPORT carries options across weights such as 21g, 22g, 23g, 24g and 25g, making it easier to compare what feels comfortable for your grip and throwing style.
Some cabinet sets come ready with darts and scoring accessories, while others focus mainly on the board and cabinet. Double-check the individual product page for the inclusions.
A dart mat gives you a clear throwing line while helping protect flooring and dart points from bounce-outs. It is not essential for every setup, but it can be useful if you want a consistent oche position without marking the floor permanently.
For a standard steel-tip setup, the centre of the bull is positioned 1.73m from the floor and the throwing line is 2.37m from the face of the board, so allow enough surrounding wall and floor space for a comfortable throw.
Many standard shafts and flights can be mixed across compatible darts, but sizing and connection systems can vary.
