ST. LOUIS, MO — The United Football League released its 2026 season schedule on Thursday. That release included the 2026 St. Louis Battlehawks schedule.
St. Louis will play 10 regular season games this spring, including five at home at the Dome America’s Center and five on the road.
The new season will begin for the Battlehawks on Saturday, March 28, when the club will host the DC Defenders. Kickoff at the Dome is scheduled for 11 a.m. that day and the game will be televised nationally on ESPN.
St. Louis’ first road game will be the following week, on Tuesday, April 7, when the Battlehawks will travel to Texas to take on the Dallas Renegades (formerly known as the Arlington Renegades) at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas.
St. Louis will be back home the following week, with a game against the Birmingham Stallions on Sunday, April 12.
The toughest stretch of the season for the Battlehawks will come in mid-to-late April, when they’ll play three straight road games (April 18 at DC), (April 25 at Orlando), and (April 30 at Louisville).
The team will close the season with three of its final four games being at home at the Dome. St. Louis will host Columbus (May 8), Houston (May 16), play at Houston (May 24), and play its regular season finale against Dallas (May 29).
The Battlehawks are coming off back-to-back division championship seasons and back-to-back UFL playoff appearances. Last year, St. Louis went 8-2 and had the best record in the league, before losing in the conference championship game to DC.
