NADO Rules for BullShooter Europe 2024 Team USA
The North American Dart Organization is the recognized affiliate of BullShooter Europe for 2024. In that capacity we will be selecting Team USA and potentially Team Canada for participation in the International Teams Challenge at the 2024 BullShooter Europe event.
THE TEAM: Typically, the international teams are limited to 6 players, with at least one female per team. Also, a female must compete in every match and shoots first. The team captain will be selected by NADO and may or may not be a player on the team. Players will be required to wear the Team USA jersey supplied by NADO. Failure to do so will be grounds for removal from the team. (If you have a shirt sponsor you will need to get them to waive any requirement that you not wear another company’s product for this event.)
