Oche

The oche /ˈɒki/, also the throw line or toe line, in the game of darts is the line behind which the throwing player must stand. It is generally 7 ft 9 1⁄4 in (2.369 m) from the face of the dartboard, measured horizontally. This is the recognized world standard as set by the World Darts Federation and is used in most areas. The diagonal distance from the bull's eye to the oche, 9 ft 7 3⁄8 in (2.931 m), may also be used.
