WATL Global East Regional Tournaments 2023
australia, Asia & new zealand axe throwing

We're hosting a series of WATL Sanctioned events in New Zealand to enable the Australasian axe throwing community to earn bids to the World Axe Throwing Championships (WATC). 

In 2022, 6 throwers from Global East (Asia, Australia & New Zealand) secured bids to WATC, these were all Kiwis throwing out of Sweet Axe venues. We'd love to broaden the pool and see some Australian throwers bringing the heat to Worlds!
