UFL head coach Wade Phillips has advance new rules in UFL Team
In 2025, the Birmingham Stallions will have the opportunity to defend their UFL championship. Additionally, the remaining seven 2024 teams will have an opportunity to prevent them from doing so.
According to Eric Williams of FoxSports.com, the eight current clubs from the eight current cities will be back in the UFL the following season. There won’t be any relocation or growth.
Trying to build on a successful first season will be the aim.
We are going to be able to dial into the details,” UFL executive V.P. of football operations Daryl Johnston told Williams. “We’re going to have a traditional offseason calendar where we can be ahead of the curve instead of being in a position where we have to chase it a little bit. . . . I think that’s something that everyone’s excited about.”
One goal will be to improve attendance in every market but St. Louis, where the Battlehawks averaged more than 34,000 fans per game. In the other seven markets, the average numbers were in the range of 10,000.
It will be interesting to see what the UFL can do. Year One counts as a success. Next year, we’ll see what happens.
