The inaugural UFL tournament is set to commence on Saturday, with the Birmingham Stallions taking on the Arlington Renegades. The competition will feature eight teams who will play 10 regular-season games, before the postseason, and will conclude with the championship game on June 14.
The UFL championship game will be held at The Dome at the America's Center in St. Louis. The stadium is home to the XFL conference team, St. Louis Battlehawks.
The title decider will kick off at 5 p.m. EDT and will broadcast live on FOX.
The Dome at the America's Center was known as the Trans World Dome from 1995 to 2001 and the Edward Jones Dome from 2002 to 2016. The arena can accommodate over 67,000 fans.
When the decision to host the UFL championship at The Dome was made, league president and CEO Ross Brandon said:
"Selecting the championship game location is more than just the stadium, but the community and the fanbase that surrounds it. This is why we are proud to bring our Championship to St. Louis – a city that has loved and embraced spring football from the start.”
The UFL is a merger of the XFL and USFL, to give fans some much-needed spring football action. Here are the eight teams in the league, divided into two conferences:
USFL conference
- Birmingham Stallions (Head coach: Skip Holtz)
- Houston Roughnecks (Head coach: Curtis Johnson)
- Memphis Showboats (Head coach: John DeFilippo)
- Michigan Panthers (Head coach: Mike Nolan)
XFL conference
- Arlington Renegades (Head coach: Bob Stoops)
- D.C. Defenders (Head coach: Reggie Barlow)
- San Antonio Brahmas (Head coach: Wade Phillips)
