The United Football League will kick off its 2025 season on March 28, marking the debut of Friday night action for the league.

That game will feature the St. Louis Battlehawks against the Houston Roughnecks in the first of 10 Friday games as part of FOX UFL Friday on FOX Sports.

In all, the UFL's eight teams will play 43 games, with 74 percent of all games televised on either ABC or FOX. The remainder of the games will air on ESPN, ESPN2 or FS1.

The season is scheduled to end on June 14 with the UFL Championship Game. Conference championship games are scheduled to be played on June 8.

All eight teams will be in action on the opening weekend.

The San Antonio Brahmas will visit the Arlington Renegades on March 29. The following day, the Michigan Panthers will visit the Memphis Showboats, and the Birmingham Stallions will begin the defense of their UFL championship against the host D.C. Defenders.
