Tips For Creating Championship Logos
No matter what event you may have, there are key elements to consider in order to create a memorable and striking championship logo. These are:
Add elements of victory and success
It’s the championship – which means it’s time to win! You can emphasize that by adding illustrations or symbols associated with victory. This can be a finish line, crown, gold medal, star, trophy, laurel wreath, and more.
Include details about your event
This means adding symbols that can represent the event that you have. For example, is it a basketball final? Then adding balls or hoops is a good idea. A tennis match? Then adding nets, rackets, or tennis balls can help. And so on.
Adding universal icons and symbols like this can help make the audience instantly understand what the event is all about from just seeing your logo.
Use the right colors
Certain colors are associated with each sport. For example, orange for basketball, red for bowling, green for tennis, and blue for swimming. Make sure you use the correct colors in your design to make it more recognizable to people.
Then, you can add accent colors like gold, silver, or bronze. This is because these colors are associated with victory (yes, because of the medals!).
What if it’s an esports event? Then dark yet powerful colors like navy, indigo, crimson, and purple are your best bet. Pair that will accent colors like bright yellow and orange and you’ll get a bold look fitting for an intense gaming match.
Pair with the right typography
Bold, clean, and blocky fonts are favored for championship matches as they look strong and powerful.
Avoid too thin fonts, cursive scripts, or overly decorative fonts as they don’t really match the vibe of a championship event.
Make the design dynamic
Championships are high-energy events – match that in your logo! You can add more action to your logo with your illustrations.
For example, instead of just showing a simple bowling lane, why not show the ball hitting the pins? This looks more dynamic and powerful.
A ball can also look more dynamic if you add fire, whoosh effect, sun rays, or angling it in a way that makes it look like it’s moving.
This also applies to your text! You can angle them upward or to the right to add more impact.
