Initially a small group of darts enthusiasts, who socialise in the hotel, expressed an interest in starting a team to play in the local league. This interest soon blossomed and a team was entered to compete in the Banbridge & District Dart League 2011/12 season.

Indeed the Downshire Arms has become somewhat of a local hub for the sport, as we have hosted the league's highly coveted finals night, as well as competitions for important charities, such as NSPCC.Most recently, we had the honour of welcoming two legends of the game to our premises for a night of great darts and craic, with all proceeds going to Marie Curie Cancer Care.
We were established in 1992 with a view to bringing our customers, who are from many different golf clubs, together, to play new courses and make new golfing friends! Playing the best and new courses all over Ireland with trips to the home of golf, Scotland and for some sun to Portugal and Spain! After a great days golf we finish with a meal & prize giving.
