The Birmingham Hammers were founded in 2013 with the intent of bringing the world’s most popular sport to Alabama’s largest and fastest-growing city. The 2015 season saw record crowds for each of the six home matches at Vestavia’s Sicard Hollow Athletic Complex. Combined with the record attendance (35,753) at Legion Field for the U.S. Women’s National Team match against Haiti in September and the growing passion for the sport among residents of the Magic City, the Birmingham Hammers expect their first season in the NPSL to be truly memorable.
