Zanarkand Abes

The Zanarkand Abes were one of two known blitzball teams that played in Dream Zanarkand in Final Fantasy X. Little is known about the team, except that Tidus and his father Jecht played for them. Final Fantasy X Ultimania Omega reveals Tidus debuted as a player for the team when he was 16.
Tidus wears the team's logo on his earrings, his necklace, and on his shorts, while Jecht has it as a tattoo. Yuna's Gunner dressphere in Final Fantasy X-2 also bears the logo on the chest, presumably in honor of both Tidus and Jecht.
A blitzball team in Final Fantasy X-2 bears the same name. There is also one player that resembles Tidus, though known simply as "Star Player". The player must have seen the "happy ending" and start a New Game+ to be able to unlock this team while playing blitzball. The prize is called "Right to Play the Abes!"
