Kingsport Axmen nickname returns

July 31st, 2021

KINGSPORT, TN – Boyd Sports announced Saturday that the Kingsport Axmen name is returning to the team, effective immediately. Kingsport temporarily changed its name to the Road Warriors after the club was informed all remaining games would be played away from Hunter Wright Stadium.

After two weeks, Kingsport was granted permission to resume games at home. The Axmen conclude their six-game homestand with a doubleheader Saturday against Bristol. The twin bill begins at 5:30 p.m. Kingsport wraps up its 2021 home slate against the State Liners on Aug. 6 and Aug. 7.

Tickets for the remainder of the season are available and can be purchased online, over the phone or by visiting the box office.
