University of Central Florida extends Nike deal

US sportswear giant Nike has extended its partnership with the University of Central Florida’s athletics programme.

Nike will continue to provide equipment for UCF Athletics until the end of the 2022 college sports season after the two parties signed a two-year extension to an agreement that was due to expire in 2020.

The university confirmed that the partnership was an expansion of the previous deal. Terms of the new agreement were not disclosed, but UCF said it represented a “significant enhancement” on the previous contract.

Nike first teamed up with UCF in 2010.
