UCF Knights Wear Disney Logo in Big 12 Opener

The University of Central Florida (UCF) is partnering with Walt Disney World Resort to feature a new logo on their football helmets. The logo, unveiled Friday, will be worn by the Knights in their Big 12 Conference opener against TCU on Saturday. This partnership brings together two organizations with deep ties to Central Florida.

According to UCF Vice President and Director of Athletics Terry Mohajir, 'This relationship connects two organizations with deep roots in our community, tremendous national reach, and a shared belief in creating memorable experiences.' The logo will appear on the back of every UCF football helmet throughout the season, beginning with Saturday's game.

The partnership highlights the shared connection between the university and the company. Thousands of UCF students and graduates have participated in Disney programs or gone on to work for the company.
