'Sport' finally timetabled with music, drama, etc (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

darts

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sport finally timetabled' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'with music drama etc' is the wordplay.
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'music' becomes 'd'.
'drama' becomes 'art' (drama is an art).
'etc' becomes 's' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'd' put next to 'art' is 'dart'.
'dart'+'s'='DARTS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for darts that I've seen before include "Game with board and missiles" , "Traditional pub game" , "Tears" , "They are thrown at targets in pubs" , "quick movements" .)
