Season 3 of our 2024 leagues is kicking off soon! Our eight (8) week leagues will be running on Sundays starting at 1pm and 6pm, Tuesday nights starting at 7pm, and Wednesday nights starting at 7pm - all with practice one hour before.

Sunday Brunch Green League and Wednesday Night Premier League are currently prospective leagues, and we will need to reach 12 league members before confirming these leagues can run as scheduled. Those registering for these leagues will pay a $35 deposit, and if the leagues are confirmed, each member will pay the remaining balance of $105 + $8 IATF League fee&tax online or in-person before the season begins. If not enough players register, those who have paid a deposit will be refunded or allowed to pay their balance & register for a different league. Please sign-up early to show your interest if you choose to register for one of these prospective leagues!

We are excited to offer TWO five (5) week recreational leagues this seasons:

Big Axe League picks back up on Thursday, August 22nd at 7pm, with practice available at 6pm. This one goes fast, so signup ASAP to guarantee your spot!
Skills League is a brand new league starting Tuesday, July 30th at 7pm, with practice available at 6pm. Skills League will provide players practice & instruction in multiple Skills throws over the course of the season, with each week of the regular season focused on a different throw:
- Underhand
- 1.5 Rotation
- Ambidextrous
- Clutch
  - An open-Clutch match style where Clutch can be called on all 5 throws of the round!
Each week will feature practice, round robin matches, and a single-elimination tournament, all played with the Skill of the Week.
Week 5 will be a double-elimination Playoffs with matches that combine all 4 of the weekly Skills introduced throughout the season.

Skills League will be played and scored using the Urban Axes scoring app, so no IATF League Fee is required! Come try something new or hone your Skill throws before the next tournament Skills events or Urban Legends!

How it works

Axe throwing is an individual sport played in a group setting. Therefore, forming teams is not necessary. If you had a team in mind, you, your friends and/or colleagues should each sign up individually to take part in the league on the same night of the week. You'll all get to throw together but also with and against other league members.

Over the first 7 weeks, you will play 4 matches each week against other league members to determine who will make the

playoffs in week 8. Each match consists of three rounds of 5 throws (so 15 axes total per match). During week 8, the top 16 competitors will compete in a double-elimination tournament to determine the league winner. League members have to opportunity to qualify for the International Axe Throwing Championship each year.

As founding members of the International Axe Throwing Federation, our leagues are built around the rules defined by IATF. You can find details of the IATF rules here.

What else should I know

Urban Axes has IATF-compliant axes for sale as low as $25 each plus tax. You can use one of general pool of axes but isn't it much more fun to have your own axe? You're in an axe throwing league! We have sourced what we consider to be the best throwing axes available that are used across Canada where the sport originated.

If you want to bring your own axe, it must meet IATF specifications.
