The Memphis Showboats have set sail on their 2025 United Football League season schedule, unveiling a lineup that includes ten regular-season bouts and significant airtime across major network partners. Kicking off the action at Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium, the Showboats will host the Michigan Panthers on March 30, with a starting whistle at 11 a.m., as reported by Action News 5.
There's no holding back as the team treads turf and screen alike with multiple home and away games to be broadcasted, this includes a Week 4 showdown against the Michigan Panthers and a Week 10 finale against the Birmingham Stallions slated for broadcast on FOX13, according to FOX13 Memphis. The Showboats' navigation through the season will see them docking in cities such as Washington D.C., Birmingham, and Houston before casting anchor at home on June 1 to wrap up the regular season against the Birmingham Stallions right where it started in Memphis.
Confirming the comprehensive broadcast strategy for the season, the UFL has partnered with national networks including FOX, ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, and FS1, promising that each game in the 43-game league schedule will be televised. "Fox debuts FOX UFL Friday, a new night dedicated to UFL action each Friday throughout the season" marks FOX's alignment with the expanding reach of the league, as found through a post on Our Sports Central.
In addition to their seasonal debut, home crowds will witness the Showboats clash with the Houston Roughnecks in Week 3 and stand off against the St. Louis Battlehawks in Week 7, with the latter amassing fans for a 2 p.m. encounter.
