PHILADELPHIA - iSportsWire -- The National Lacrosse League (NLL) today announced a new, multi-year partnership with AXIA Time as the "Official Timepiece of the NLL" and the presenting partner of the upcoming 2024 NLL Finals presented by AXIA Time that starts this Friday between the defending NLL champion Buffalo Bandits and the Albany FireWolves.

AXIA (pronounced ahx-EE-ah) Time creates heirloom-quality timepiece to commemorate life's biggest moments. AXIA has been rapidly expanding its portfolio of partners and events. Notable recent projects include ultra-custom timepiece for the University of Michigan's college football national championship and the University of Connecticut's men's basketball back-to-back national championship. Last week, AXIA Time unveiled its new collaboration with Zach Edey, Purdue University, and the Naismith Awards – commemorating Edey's back-to-back Player of the Year honors.

"Storytelling is vital to the NLL as we advance towards our goal of becoming 'The Next Major League' in North America," said Kurt Hunzeker, NLL Executive Vice President, Commercial Operations. "The biggest and best story of any NLL season centers on celebrating championship teams, and AXIA Time specializes in celebrating life's biggest achievements and memorializing them in remarkable timepieces that tell so much more than time."
