The United Football League (UFL) has consolidated football operations in Arlington, Texas. The league’s new facility at Arlington’s Ballpark Circle will serve as headquarters for all eight teams in the spring football league.

The announcement was made during a ceremony Wednesday at the league’s new offices with UFL owner Dany Garcia, UFL president and CEO Russ Brandon, UFL executive vice president of Football Operations Daryl Johnston and Arlington Mayor Jim Ross.

The UFL headquarters will encompass multiple facilities in central Arlington. Beginning with training camps in March and continuing through practices during the 10-week regular season and two-week postseason, Arlington will host more than 600 players, coaches and staff gathering to meet, train and practice. Until now, the league used practice fields throughout North Texas, including meeting spaces in the cities each team practiced in. With this move, the teams can be in one place to meet and receive athletic training.  

“The United Football League’s decision to open its headquarters and player training facilities here is a huge win for the City of Arlington and for fans who will visit from across the country each spring to see their favorite UFL teams,” Ross said at the ceremony. “As the sports and entertainment capital of Texas, Arlington is thrilled to showcase the incredible talent of the UFL’s eight teams and create unforgettable experiences for their fans.”

The UFL headquarters will consist of five centralized facilities including the team’s 111,409-square-foot space at Ballpark Circle; Choctaw Stadium, which opened in 1994 and was home to the MLB Texas Rangers until 2019; and three other practice locations. The offices at UFL HQ will house the UFL team offices and training rooms and the UFL content studio. Choctaw Stadium will house the UFL Performance Center. The Offices at UFL HQ will also serve as the home of the UFL’s new division FAST (Football Advancement through Sports Technology). FAST will enable established and emerging media and technology companies to test and launch innovations that have the potential to take the league to the next level.

The UFL was created in 2024 with the merger of the XFL and USFL with teams in Arlington, Birmingham, Detroit, Houston, San Antonio, Memphis, St. Louis and Washington D.C. Entering its second season, the United Football League’s complete 2025 43-game schedule will air across the league’s media partners FOX, ABC, ESPN, ESPN2 and FS1 providing additional national exposure for stadium partners. Select games in Spanish will also air on FOX Deportes and across ESPN Deportes and ESPN+. The season kicks off on March 28, at 8 PM/ET when FOX Sports debuts “FOX UFL Friday” with a matchup between the St. Louis Battlehawks and Houston Roughnecks. The season concludes on June 14, when ABC presents the 2025 UFL Championship Game.
