Ripple is expanding XRP’s presence in college sports through a new multi-year partnership with the University of Florida. The agreement will bring XRP branding to Florida football starting with the 2026 season. Notably, the cryptocurrency’s logo will appear prominently on the field at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.

Besides stadium branding, the partnership covers Florida Athletics’ digital platforms and event signage. Consequently, XRP will gain visibility among one of college sports’ largest and most engaged audiences.
Additionally, Ripple will support financial and technology education for Florida student-athletes and the wider campus community. The initiative will cover traditional finance alongside emerging digital asset technologies.
Florida competes in the Southeastern Conference and supports 21 varsity sports. Moreover, the university represents more than 500 student-athletes across its athletic programs.
Ripple Builds Sports Strategy
Significantly, the Florida agreement strengthens Ripple’s growing strategy around collegiate athletics. Earlier this summer, the company partnered with Kansas, bringing XRP branding onto Jayhawks football jerseys.
However, Florida offers another major platform through one of college football’s most recognizable programs. The Gators have captured three national football championships, including titles in 1996, 2006, and 2008.
