The United Football League is back for its third season in 2026, with the season set to run from March 27 through the championship game on June 13.
While the league is maintaining an eight-team footprint, it has undergone a significant transformation under new co-owner Mike Repole, who joined the leadership group alongside Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Dany Garcia.
Repole, the billionaire entrepreneur behind Vitaminwater and BodyArmor, has already made his mark by spearheading a shift toward more intimate soccer-specific stadiums and overseeing a major brand refresh. This season features three new markets, two significant rebrands, and a "unified" standings format that scraps conferences in favor of a single eight-team race for the playoffs
