EMDA is going digital

The association recently purchased 11 Samsung Galaxy tablets so it can move into the electronic age.

Each team will be allocated a tablet as a scoring aid.

The remainder of this season will be used as practice in using the tablets and it is hoped that we will connect to DartConnect next season.

This will give instantaneous results to anyone wishing to log on to the internet, as well as keeping an eye on one’s own achievements.

There will be a handover and training night in the near future.

We are still waiting for the wall mounts and protective sleeves to arrive.
