The Thoothukudi franchise had the toughest job on their hands, but smashed it out of the park. The very fact that they converted Thoothukudi to a very catchy ‘Tuti’ earns them points. They have chosen to name the team Patriots, not done before in the country. One can only hope they are as successful as the NFL team New England Patriorts.

The team is owned by Thoothukudi Sports and Entertainment Private Limited. They paid the maximum during the bidding process and clearly put lots of thought into naming the team.
