Birmingham will have a professional soccer team starting in 2019. For those unfamiliar with the USL (United Soccer League), it is the 2nd division of professional soccer in the US. Many MLS teams have an affiliate in USL, some MLS teams have a reserve team in USL. It seems that the new team will absorb the Birmingham Hammers, which is an amateur team in the NPSL. Team name, logo, colors, stadium details, etc. will come at a later date.

I wouldn't mind them keeping the Hammers name, but get rid of the soccer ball on the logo.

Hopefully the Bham council will move forward with the plans to renovate the BJCC.
