Tournament Format
In every flight, in all events, the tournament format will be Round Robin Play
progressing to Knockout Tournaments.
Round Robin divisions will consist of six teams from which three will progress.
In addition, there will be an announced number of Wildcard teams progressing in
every flight, from Round Robin Play, to the respective Knockout Tournaments.
The Wildcard teams are determined by weighted, random computer draws. The
term “weighted” means that each game won equals one chance in the draw pool.
If a team walks out during Round Robin Play, the remaining opponents will
be awarded wins (rounded up) based on their win percentage at the time of
the match against the walk out team.
Players on a team that walks out will be expelled from the tournament. No refunds.
Based on participation, Round Robin match formats, two or three games per match,
will be announced prior to the kick-off of each event.
Knockout matches will be 3 Out Of 5 games.
NO WAITING IN ROUND ROBIN PLAY OR IN THE KNOCKOUT TOURNAMENTS!

PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE RATING VERIFICATION SECTION IN THIS
BOOK – IF IN DOUBT, RERATE YOURSELF!
Ratings And Parity
At the World Championships Dart Tournament, stats will be recorded in all games and
computed per Medalist’s judgment.
At the conclusion of each day (not window) all players will be rerated to their
cumulative Event (Rolling) Ratings. After having rolled up, players may roll down on
subsequent days but may not roll below their Entry Ratings.
There are no upward limits on Event (Rolling) Ratings. However, players may not be
rated above a 17.
Bust Rule: If, with 15 or more Stat Games* computed, a player’s Event Rating exceeds
their Entry Rating or most immediate Event Rating (whichever is greater) by three or
more points, the player’s team is BUSTED.
A Busted team may not finish higher than fourth place in an event. If a Busted team
progresses to the final four, said team will be eliminated and recognized as finishing in
fourth place.
A Bust rerate becomes permanent following a review between Medalist and the
respective operator after the World Championships Dart Tournament.
* May be adjusted by Medalist based on team count
All events, except Super Singles and Super Doubles, are handicapped. The handicap per
rating points differential is:

Replacement Players
Non-rostered Replacement Players (NRPs) may be used (one per team per event)

 For each event, the NRP’s Entry or Event Rating, whichever is greater,
must be equal to or less than the Event Rating of the player being replaced
When a NRP is registered, the NRP must be defined as “Temporary” or
“Permanent”
Temporary – team rating points remain the same, and one reversal is
allowed
Permanent – team rating points are changed to the combined rating points
of the original player(s) and the NRP, and there are no
reversals allowed
There is only one reversal (return of the original player) allowed per event and said
reversal must be at the start of a match – prior to the first dart being thrown and
may not return in mid-match. A reversal may only occur when the NRP was
registered as “Temporary”.
