13. Acceptable Use

Users must not attempt unauthorised access, disrupt the service, scrape data in a harmful manner, impersonate others, manipulate results dishonestly, upload malicious software or use the platform unlawfully.

14. Super 5 Disclaimer

What is Super 5?

Super 5 is an optional in-fixture prediction game that adds an extra layer of excitement and engagement to your team’s matches.

Players can make predictions on the final fixture result and compete with teammates for a share of the pot, subject to the rules set by their team.

1. How It Works

During a fixture, eligible team members can record a prediction for the final match score.

Predictions are typically available during two phases:

• Singles (Games 1–5)
• Doubles (Games 6–7)

Teams can decide whether to enable one or both phases.

2. Prediction Options

Players predict the final fixture score by selecting one of the available outcomes:

• 3–0
• 2–1
• 1–2
• 0–3

Predictions must be submitted before the relevant phase closes.

Once submitted, predictions may not be editable unless permitted by the team rules.

3. Team Pot Settings

Each team may configure its own optional contribution amount for participation. Typical contribution amounts are between £3 and £5 per prediction, although teams may choose different amounts.

Participation is entirely voluntary and teams are responsible for managing any contributions between themselves.

4. The Pot

Teams may choose to combine participant contributions into a shared pot.

The pot is managed entirely by the participants and team organisers.

Where one or more participants correctly predict the final result, the pot may be divided according to the rules agreed by the team.

DartLeague does not determine winners, distribute money or enforce team-specific rules.

5. Team Benefits

Many teams use Super 5 to:

• Increase player engagement
• Add excitement to fixture nights
• Encourage participation
• Create friendly competition between teammates
• Raise money for team activities, socials, trophies or prizes

Participation is always optional.

15. Future Subscriptions

DartLeague may introduce optional paid subscriptions in the future to help fund hosting, infrastructure, maintenance, support and development costs. Subscription terms, pricing and eligibility will be published before launch.

16. Intellectual Property

The DartLeague software, branding, design and platform functionality are owned by or licensed to the Operator. Users may not copy, redistribute or reverse engineer the platform except as permitted by law.

17. Service Availability

DartLeague is provided on a reasonable-efforts basis. Availability is not guaranteed. Features may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time.

18. Suspension and Termination

Accounts may be suspended or terminated where these Terms are breached, security concerns arise, unlawful activity is suspected or action is required to protect the platform or its users.

19. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Operator shall not be liable for indirect, consequential or economic losses, loss of data, loss of opportunity, inaccurate statistics, competition disputes, service interruptions or Super 5 disputes. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded under the laws of England and Wales.

20. Changes to Terms

These Terms may be updated periodically. Continued use of DartLeague after publication of revised Terms constitutes acceptance of those changes.
