ARLINGTON, TX - January 1, 2024 - The United Football League, the premier spring football league, today announced the Arlington Renegades as one of eight teams competing in its inaugural season kicking off on March 30, 2024.
The Renegades will look to defend their 2023 championship under the helm of head coach Bob Stoops when the inaugural season kicks off this Spring.
The League will be divided into two conferences: USFL and XFL.
USFL CONFERENCE

Houston was the one overlapping market between the XFL and USFL and it was one of the strongest markets for both leagues. As a result, the USFL's Houston Gamblers have been rebranded as the Houston Roughnecks.
The UFL's 10-game regular season will start on Saturday, March 30, 2024, with a battle of the 2023 champions: Birmingham Stallions (USFL) vs Arlington Renegades (XFL). Players will report to training camp on Saturday, February 24, 2024, in Arlington, Texas.
