THE BACKYARD AXE THROWING LEAGUE IN METRO DETROIT
BATL Axe Throwing opened earlier this month and is the premier axe throwing facility in metro Detroit. The venue is located at Twelve Mile Crossing at Fountain Walk near West Oaks Shopping Centre and is capable of hosting parties ranging from 2 – 100 + people. BATL Novi is our 13th location of 18 in North America (serving Metro Detroit, Flint, Lansing, Monroe, Jackson, Ann Arbor and will boast everything that the Backyard Axe Throwing League has become famous for – the best urban axe throwing in the world. This includes private event bookings for groups of 2 and up (perfectly suited for bachelor/bachelorette parties, adult birthdays, corporate team building events, and much more), in addition to our weekly public walk-in sessions.
BATL Axe Throwing was founded in 2006 in a Toronto backyard, making us the first to pioneer the sport of urban axe throwing. Since then, we have expanded to 18 locations in North America including Toronto, London, Niagara, Calgary, Ottawa, and many more (with even more on the way) – bringing axe throwing to countless guests. Last year, BATL started its expansion into the USA with locations in Nashville and Chicago, followed by our newest venue in Novi, Michigan. With US locations in Madison, Wisconsin; Houston, Texas; Albuquerque, New Mexico; and Scottsdale, Arizona set to open this year – we’re just getting started!
If you’re looking for a reason to get involved with the best axe throwing experience in the world, BATL Novi has you covered.
CORPORATE PARTIES
Summer employee parties often take a back seat to their more popular cousin, the winter holiday party.
Sure, winter holiday parties are full of good tidings and cheer, but that doesn’t mean you should overlook the importance of a summer party. BATL is the perfect venue to host your next staff outing. Our private events last 2-2.5 hours and are run in the safe and comfortable environment that BATL has become famous for by our expertly trained staff, who also happen to be the best axe throwers in the planet. They will run you and your guests through training to ensure that you’re all sticking bullseyes before launching you into a round robin tournament, followed by a playoff (in order to crown a champion, of course).
A little friendly competition is a key to a team building outing so if you’re looking for the perfect event for your next corporate party in Novi, look no further than BATL Axe Throwing.

JOIN AN AXE THROWING LEAGUE
If one day of axe throwing doesn’t sound like enough to satisfy you – don’t worry. You’re not alone. When we started back in 2006, BATL Axe Throwing was just that – a league of friends that got together every week in a downtown Toronto backyard to compete and hone their skill. League play will be starting soon in Novi and is the perfect excuse to get out of your house once a week and meet some new friends, all while engaging in some friendly competition.
Our axe throwing leagues run for 8 weeks, completely under the guidance of our resident axe gurus. Each season consists of round-robin style tournament play, where you’ll throw 28 games against other people in the league, culminating in a top 16 double elimination playoff on week 8. Our leagues are suitable for people of all skill levels, with staff on hand at all times ready to give you tips and tricks to make sure that you’re hitting the bullseye. League play falls under the National Axe Throwing Federation umbrella, the worlds foremost governing body of the sport of axe throwing (of which BATL Axe Throwing is a founding member). Being part of the NATF also gives you access to the most advanced statistic tracking in the sport of urban axe throwing. Be awesome. Join a league.
BATL Novi offers a little something for everyone, and we can’t wait to continue meeting our neighbours and building on the amazing community we’ve already met. Novi, it’s time to Join the BATL!
