Look, we all know Singaporeans are a wound-up/uptight/stressed/no chill bunch.
For students and working adults alike, sometimes it gets to a point where it’s all just too much, when all you want to do is scream, hit or break something to let all that pent up frustration out.
You’ve heard of smashing things in The Fragment Room to vent your anger. Now, you’ll get to release stress AND pick up a sport at the same time with Axe Factor.
Let The Axes Fly
