Axe and Ale offers a fantastic menu with food and drink options you can purchase throughout the event. We’re thrilled to share that the owner of Axe and Ale has generously donated 100% of today’s entry fees to the Children's Auction making each participant’s involvement extra meaningful.

As we prepare for our upcoming Thanksgiving meals, remember that by supporting the Children’s Auction, our tournament's benefactor, you’re helping to provide meals to children in need. A total of $609,700 was distributed to multiple charities that benefit children including donations that went directly to combat food insufficiency in our communities.

Registration & Warm Up

Each team will go head-to-head with every other team in short, friendly rounds, with 3 throws per player in each match. Since the lineup will depend on our final team count, we’ll keep things flexible and fun, aiming to keep the action moving with 90 minutes of rapid-fire rounds! • Match Timing: We’re shooting for about 5 minutes per match, with 5 minutes between matches to catch our breath and get ready for the next showdown. • Multiple Lanes: To keep the energy up and the waiting down, we’ll be running matches on multiple lanes at once, so everyone gets plenty of time to play without the long waits. Get ready for some fast-paced fun, and may the best team win!

Let the Axes Fly - Round Robin 

 We’ll tally the scores and announce the top 6 teams advancing to the playoffs. For those who didn’t make it, don’t worry—your consolation prize is there's a great bar and lunch menu available, so feel free to stick around, grab a bite, and cheer on the finalists! Of course, if you’ve had your fill of axe-throwing excitement, you’re welcome to call it quits, too. We’re thankful to everyone for joining us, from our playoff contenders to our “not-so-good” throwers. Here’s to a great afternoon of fun and giving back!
