We’re BATL, the original Backyard Axe Throwing League. Our mission is to show people the power of being good to each other, using the axe as a tool to build community inspired by our backyard roots. We’re immensely proud to have been the first organization in the world to offer an urban venue to experience the thrill of indoor axe throwing in leagues, walk-ins, group parties and team building.

BATL was founded in the backyard of CEO Matt Wilson in 2006. What started as a personal passion sparked by a camping trip soon spread through word of mouth in Toronto, and today nearly 1 million people have experienced the thrill of throwing axes at one of our 14 locations.

Minutes from Broadway, Nissan Stadium, and Germantown – BATL Nashville is centrally located for residents and visitors to Tennessee alike to enjoy the same experience we’ve become renowned for across North America.

Axe Throwing League Information

Our axe throwing leagues offer a fun and competitive environment, and a perfect place to hang out with friends and meet new ones. Leagues run 5 – 8pm on Sunday, and 7 – 10pm Monday – Wednesday.

For as little as $17.85/ week you’ll throw on the same night weekly for 8 weeks, consisting of a 7-week regular season. Regular season matches can be rescheduled if absent. The 8th week is playoffs, with the top 16 competitors facing off to crown a season champion.

Our calendar culminates in the National Axe Throwing Championship, with qualifying players competing against the best throwers globally for the Wilson Cup and $7500 in prize money.

League members can bring their own axe as long as it passes our standards and requirements for play, which means that it must be within 0.25 of a 1.5 pound head in either direction and it must have a wooden handle. Tomahawks are not permitted as they are a different type of blade.

Spectator Information

Spectators are always welcome at BATL locations for both leagues and private events, and are only charged a fee if they decide to throw an axe.

Other Information

Guests at BATL Nashville can bring outside food, beer, wine, coolers and non-alcoholic beverages to enjoy while you throw.

We’ve instructed many people with physical disabilities, and axe throwing is a highly accessible sport for those with limited mobility.

While we have some flexibility with handling latecomers, we strongly encourage groups to arrive on time otherwise it will take always total event time available. Due to scheduling restrictions events can’t be extended.

We have a 1-week cancellation policy. If you provide at least seven days notice ahead of your scheduled event, your deposit will be refunded. We can also change your event date provided that we receive 1 week’s notice and there’s availability on requested day.

We accept cash, debit cards as well as all major credit cards, including Visa, MasterCard and American Express.

A copy of our liability waiver, which must be signed by all guests before throwing or spectating may be emailed upon request.

Our only restriction on clothing is that close-toed shoes are required; otherwise you’re welcome to wear whatever you’d like. We recommend avoiding high heels, and wear something comfortable and loose enough to allow for a full range of movement.
