BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – UAB Athletics announced Tuesday a new family-friendly ticket pricing initiative designed to make attending Blazer athletic events more affordable and accessible for families throughout Birmingham and the surrounding communities. Beginning this fall, children ages 4-12 will be eligible for specially priced youth tickets to UAB football and men's and women's basketball home games, while children ages 3 and under will receive complimentary admission with the purchase of at least one regularly priced ticket.
The initiative begins with UAB's remaining 2026 home football games (Nov.7 vs. Charlotte, Nov. 21 vs. UTSA) and extends into the upcoming 2026-27 men's and women's basketball seasons, with plans to expand youth pricing to baseball and softball in the spring.
"Our goal is to make UAB Athletics an affordable and welcoming experience for families throughout Birmingham," Interim Athletics Director Andy Kennedy said. "We want to give more children the opportunity to experience the excitement of college athletics, create lasting memories with their families and develop a lifelong connection to the Blazers."
