About The DRA
 

The challenge for the current Committee is to ensure good governance within Darts. Playing standards, commercial revenues and the reputation of the game are undoubtedly in the ascendancy compared to others.

It is the responsibility of the DRA to protect and enhance that position both within Darts and outside.

Through management of the drug testing programme, review of DRA rules, disciplinary hearings and its many other functions the DRA is committed to protect that good name for the sake of everyone involved in Darts; players, officials, sponsors, media, fans and spectators alike.

The DRA Disciplinary Appeal Hearings

  

These will be chaired by Tim Ollerenshaw sitting with two independent people not directly associated with the Council of the DRA.
