Eric Bristow is responsible for darts as we currently know it. Did so much for the sport by turning it into a career choice for so many people, and even trained the best player in the world. Shame about Dartitis and his later life but he was a top bloke

Ted Hankey invented darts.

No one knows! Kids have throw rocks and what ever at targets throughout history. Adults would take those ideas and toys and make better games out of them. Darts probably evolved out of spear throwing then to bow and arrows then to small sharp sticks.

Though often repeated, the claim darts started with English archers is unverified and unverifiable.

Any activity that takes skill or involves competition is a sport dumb ass! There are physical sports and mental sports and sports in-between which darts is.

Going by the most simple definition of a sport, darts qualifies no doubt. "Athlete" is questionable
