• Source: Dartchery at the Summer Paralympics

Dartchery (a combination of darts and archery which uses a dart board instead of a standard archery target) was contested at the Summer Paralympic Games from 1960 to 1980. Competitions were carried out in pairs: mixed pairs from 1960 to 1980, and men's pairs and women's pairs from 1972 to 1980.
Though the participants and results have, for the most part, been recorded by the International Paralympic Committee, the scores obtained by competitors have not.

Dartchery was one of the eight sports contested at the inaugural Paralympic Games in Rome in 1960. Only three pairs of athletes competed, and therefore all won a medal. Jack Whitman and Wayne Broeren of the United States defeated their compatriots Jim Mathis and John Tigyer, as well as French competitors Camille Trouverie and Bernabei, to win gold.

At the 1968 Games in Tel Aviv, the number of competitors in dartchery increased significantly, to thirty-one pairs (from eighteen countries). They were pitted against each other two by two in a round of sixteen, with French pair Ehrsam and Seguin receiving a bye in the first round.
In the round of sixteen, the results were as follows (winners in bold):

In the second round, Geissinger and Kelderhouse (USA) beat Fowler and Bawden (AUS); Koten and Sala (ITA) beat Ehrsam and Seguin (FRA); Tanaka and Matsumoto (JPN) beat Grun and van Eynde (BEL); Waldispuehl and Isenschmied (SUI) beat Nicholson and Taylor (GBR); South and Conn (AUS) beat Klemens and Classon (USA); Schelfaut and Desal (BEL) beat Maraschin and Girard (FRA); Deiana and Longhi (ITA) beat Meyer and Harriman (RHO); and Robertson and Todd (GBR) beat Lorente and Llorens (ESP).
In the quarter-finals, Geissinger and Kelderhouse defeated Koten and Sala; Tanaka and Matsumoto eliminated Waldispuehl and Isenschmied; Schelfaut and Desal fell to South and Conn; while Deiana and Longhi beat Robertson and Todd.
The American pair defeated their Japanese rivals in the first semi-final, while the Australians beat the Italians in the other.
