What distance is the oche in darts?



The front edge of a darts board should be placed 7ft 9 1/4in (2.37 m) from the oche.

This can also be measured as a distance from the center of the bullseye to the oche in a diagonal (9ft, 7 3/8in).

Both measurements should be checked when hanging the board.

Care should be taken to rememebr that the first measurement should be from the front of the board and not from the wall!

In decent darts venues the oche will be a raised board so that a throwing player can't overstep the line. All measurements should be to the foot of the oche board.
