As an avid dart player, Flin Flon's Brian Humphreys covers a few thousand kilometres every year while on the Saskatchewan Darts Association circuit. A member of Team Saskatchewan for the past four years, Humphreys needs constant practice to compete at the level he does. Flin Flon has always provided great competition with a number of top quality dart players to draw from. But with the technology that exists today, Humphreys is able to play darts with players from around the world on Skype. With a laptop and video camera, Humphreys and his distant opponents are able to see each other's boards in games that can now take place anywhere. Humphreys has already played matches against dart players in New Zealand, the UK as well as within Canada. Some 1,500 dart players are using Skype worldwide _ leaving no limit to the amount of competition and skill level. They say it's the next best thing to actually being in the same room. They also get to know some very interesting people with the same interest. - Compiled from a submitted article
