WHAT THE KNIGHTS WEARThe UCF football equipment room is designed to handle the everyday equipment needs of each football student-athlete, along with the team’s coaches and support personnel, and is respon-sible for the transport of several tons pounds of equipment to games.

On game days, Coordinator of Sports Equipment Opera�ons Robert Jones and his staff, led by veteran assistant Thaddeus Rivers, enjoy generous space in Bright House Networks Stadium’s equipment room. Nearly a dozen student assistants help ensure the success of the Knights equip-ment opera�ons during prac�ces throughout the season and on gamedays.

On a daily basis, football equipment needs are handled from another equipment work area located in the Wayne Densch Sports Center, just a few feet from UCF’s locker room, weight room and athle� c training room, to immediately service the equipment needs of the football team.

Jones and his assistants were named the Conference USA Equip-ment Staff of the Year in 2007.

The UCF equipment room is stocked with products from adidas, Riddell and Schu� . Adidas is the offi cial uniform, apparel and footwear supplier of UCF football.

Prior to the 2007 season and the program’s move into Bright House Networks Sta-dium, UCF adopted its current logos and color scheme. The new look was high-lighted by white helmets with the UCF monogram logo.
