The Birmingham Bulls was a professional ice hockey team based in Birmingham that played in the World Hockey Association (WHA) from 1976 to 1979. Their home ice was the Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Center.
The franchise was moved from Canada where it was known as the Toronto Toros, however the Toros' logo was retained. In 1979 the WHA folded and the team was supposed to disband. However, the Bulls returned in the 1979–1980 season as part of the Central Hockey League.
