U.S. Senators Tommy Tuberville and Katie Britt letter Addressed to NCAA President Charlie Baker advocating for the city of Birmingham to be used as a venue for future NCAA Championship events.

Specifically, Tuberville and Britt are championing the Magic City as the site for the first and second rounds of men's March Madness, the women's March Madness regional tournament, and the women's gymnastics national championship.

Last March, Birmingham's Legacy Arena was the venue for the first and second rounds, both of which were sold out, with both the Alabama Crimson Tide and Auburn Tigers set to play there.

From 1992 to 2008, Birmingham hosted 10 March Madness games for men and one for women, but 2023 was the first time the venue was used since then.

“Alabama has a long tradition of supporting intercollegiate athletics, and the recent success of March Madness in 2023 and the World Games in 2022 is a testament to Alabamians’ passion for athletics and the commitment to ensure that athletic events are safe and secure.” “We have further highlighted the comprehensive synergies that will ensure that it is carried out safely. It was a success,” the senators said.

“Our great state, the city of Birmingham, and the surrounding area is the perfect venue for these high-level events.”

The Senators went on to talk about the $125 million renovation of Legacy Arena and the adjacent CityWalk area, which will solidify the site as an elite championship venue. He said it has become a thing.

Following the success of the first and second rounds of last year's NCAA Tournament, the city is hopeful that the NCAA will continue to select Birmingham as its host venue.
