Rugby is a popular sport in more than 120 countries around the world. If your rugby club has chosen you to have a logo designed, you’ll want to be aware that with all the rugby clubs worldwide, a truly unique and memorable logo will allow your club to stand out among the others. With the long history and traditions of rugby, it’s likely you already have a logo idea in mind. From here, you need to choose the right logo designer to work with.
Many logo designers offer their services online or you can work with a local designer. Whomever you choose, be sure to investigate their work, prices, options for your logo design such as choice of colors, type of font, timeframe to finish the job, and of most importance, how many changes will they allow you to make after the initial design. If you’re not happy at all with the logo, constant revisions can become costly.
Look at the business’s logo and work:
- Is their own logo professional looking?
- Do they have a website? Is it a quality website?
- Do they provide customer feedback and prior work contracted by them?
- How do their prices compare to other companies.
If the designer is online, they should provide you with a logo sample similar to a rugby club logo for you to view. Look through other rugby club websites to see what trend is used for other club’s logos. Then, using colors, images, and input from club leaders, you can begin to develop ideas for your logo. It’s best to prepare some ideas either on paper, or through other logo samples to show the graphic designer you choose to work with. This helps the process go smoother. There are many free logo design websites you can try, but be careful about choosing ‘clip art’ of other images that look cheap or low quality. A rugby club logo should reflect the performance of the sport.
There are elements of your rugby club logo that can help create a clean and recognizable logo:
1. Colors: Choose two colors, possibly three, but no more. The colors should be consistent: bright for primary colors, organic colors like browns and greens, or pastels that complement each other. Your rugby club may already have distinctive colors used on their uniforms.
2. Font: Decide on what look you want for the name and other text. Fonts can be either decorative or plain. It’s best not to mix types of fonts unless the name of the club is a fancy and the tag line is a plain font. Be sure the text is easily read close and from far away.
3. Images: Remember that your rugby club logo will be used in many applications. Will it transfer well for tee shirts and hats? Can it be changed to black and white for stationary without losing quality?
4. Design: Simple is better and a clean logo is much more professional than one made with too many colors or cheap looking clip art. Consult other members of your club for ideas.
Designing your rugby club logo can be enjoyable and can result in a high quality logo. Keep in mind that this logo will follow your club for years; find a designer you can work with and settle on a logo only once it suits your needs.
