The Gay and Lesbian Association of Darts (G.L.A.D.) is only Phoenix area gay and lesbian dart league that gives back to the community. Founded in 1989, our joint purpose is to unite the GLBT community and raise money for charity. Today’s league (Summer/Fall 2008) has 38 teams with 17 area bars sponsoring teams.

We have two regular seasons each year: Winter/Spring and Summer/Fall. A team roster consists of five members, with two substitutes. Dues are $5.00 per week with 51% of all money raised going to three local charities. In our history, the dart league has raised and donated more than $500,000.00 to local charities.

Tuesday evening's play consists of five individual games of 301, two games of team 501, and two games of team Cricket. Individual awards are given to players who have thrown a "Hat Trick," a "3 in a Bed," a "White Horse," or a "6 Dart Out."

GLAD is a non-profit organization of diversified men and women that was established in 1989 with the joint purpose of bringing unity to the Gay & Lesbian community and to raise money for 3 charities each season. Unity is gained by maintaining a spirit of fellowship, sportsmanship, and fun. The charities are nominated and elected by the membership. It is the hope of the GLAD organization that these contributions will enrich the lives of the recipients as well as our membership.
