2023 Spring League Divisions

April 1st, 2023

APRIL FOOLS!

We know everyone is already excited about all the new changes, and, due to the overwhelming positivity we’ve experienced in the community, we’ve decided to push another positive change out for THIS season.

Starting now, league runners will be able to select from a multitude of different divisions as they set up their leagues. Some of these leagues may not have full participation now, but we anticipate the most popular could even be featured matches on the next ESPN broadcast.

For those who have already input their league data, the app team is on standby to help transfer any already created leagues to the new divisional format, and throwers will be able to see individual leaderboards for all of the available divisions.

For now, these changes have only been turned on for hatchet leagues, and the app team has been working incredibly hard to get this ready for a full season ahead of the anticipated release. The big axe, duals, and knives divisions will still only be available starting in Summer, but for those interested in forming divisional leagues in hatchet, talk to you Spring league runners!

The minimum participation for each division is 4 throwers (and venues may run multiple divisions on one league night). Furthermore, divisional marathons will NOT count towards the 2-marathon maximum currently afforded to venues.

We will not have time to add to this list before Spring League, but you can find the whole list of divisions below. Any divisions you want to see added for summer? Get in the comments!
