WHAT THE KNIGHTS WEAR The 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 responsible 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 equipment 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 Equipment Staff of the Year in 2007. The UCF equipment room is stocked with products from adidas, Riddell and Schu�. Adidas is the official uniform, apparel and footwear supplier of UCF football.
NEW AND IMPROVED Prior to the 2007 season and the program’s move into Bright House Networks Stadium, UCF adopted its current logos and color scheme. The new look was highlighted by white helmets with the UCF monogram logo.
