After a long and uncertain wait, the Pepsi University Football League (UFL) is set to make a triumphant return with its 11th edition next week, promising fans a fresh and exciting experience with significant changes.

Originally scheduled for March this year, the UFL faced unforeseen delays, leaving many to wonder if the season would happen at all. However, the league has bounced back with a revamped calendar. Unlike the traditional March-to-November schedule, the upcoming season will kick off in September and run until May, a shift that brings new dynamics and opportunities for the participating teams.
