Birmingham Titans is a rugby league club, entering into the 2019 Florian Super League, after winning a license to compete in the league. It will be one of the youngest clubs in the league alongside the Southern Storm. They will be the first team from Birmingham, to compete in the league, however, the team will have stiff competition with Rugby Union which is played in the area.

History

In the summer of 2017, Hook Solutions CEO Brandon Hayes announced plans for a professional rugby league team in Birmingham. He proposed to invest 300 million Florian pounds in the project and then on the 22nd November 2017, Hook Solutions formally applied to the Florian Super League for entry. The Vote was to take place on the 9th December 2017 but was voted on earlier. The vote was successful and the Titans were awarded a license.

Proposed home stadium

The proposed stadium of the team will be the Eastpak Stadium, which has a capacity of 34,500 fans. They are also proposals for a brand new stadium if talks with the Florian Rugby Union Federation fail. However, this was not needed as negotiations were successful.
