The United Football League is doing its best to change the way we all think about spring football.
The best way to do that? Keep the public informed, give them all the information you can, and then some, and make it available 24-7, 365 days a year.
Well, guess what? There’s an app for that.
The league announced Tuesday the launch of its app, which is (from the release on the subject) “designed to serve as the ultimate companion for fans of the UFL both in team markets and nationwide,” and is “packed with features that provide comprehensive coverage from around the league.”
Here’s the rest of the release for the league:

The league, which merged the XFL and the USFL, begins play on March 30, with the biggest game of the weekend likely the matchup between the Birmingham Stallions and Arlington Renegades, in Arlington.
The other UFL franchises are the Houston Roughnecks, the San Antonio Brahmas, the Memphis Showboats, the St. Louis Battlehawks, the Michigan Panthers and the D.C. Defenders, located in Washington, D.C.
There are plenty of familiar faces, like former Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops, who leads Arlington, for instance, and there are all sorts of rules that aren’t your conventional football (Rules in the UFL, and we think you’ll like ’em | The Football Beat).
TFB plans to staff the UFL like crazy this first season, which can be seen in several platforms, including Fox, Fox Sports 1, ESPN and ABC.
