Weeting Football Club Logo

[sephgreen]

Dear All,

Firstly, Covertpea, Sorry for adding to an open thread and thanks for the pointers!

I am involved with a football team that will require a football badge to use on letterheads, website and most importantly our shirts. Our club, Weeting Football Club is situated in Norfolk.

1) Our web site is http://www.clubwebsite.co.uk/weetingfootballclub/ but the information is very basic and minimal at the moment, but this is soon to be updated!!

2) As I have already mentioned we are a Sunday League football team, that will soon to include a few youth teams and possible a Saturday team!

3) The deigns that I like are the sheild badges, I like the shape of "West Hams United's" badge.

4) The size can be adjusted to suit, but it will be used on letterheads, website and shirts, so any small images may be unclear to read?

5) I am very open to suggestions for the design, But we are starting the team up again, the club folded in 2005 due to lack of interest and money problems, so with 2009 being the fresh start it may be nice to have that on there, but not essensial! I would however like "Weeting Football Club" somewhere on the badge, Like on the West Ham badge in the scroll?

6) Our strip is Navy Blue and Black Vertical stripes with white details, I would prefer the background of the badge white.

I look forward to seeing what you can do! If you need any more imput let me know!

Kindest Regards Seph

"the lack of planning"
I told you CP you needed your own site and to charge people. By now you would have a tidy sum. Just goto Blogger set up a free site, mod the software to look like you, display your work and put up a donation or tipjar through paypail.
Heck on blogger if you want your own domain name to stand out, buy one at $10.00 a year and google will host it for free.

I wonder if all these teams get everything else for free...
Most likely not.

[CovertPea]

Yeah, I know Dave.
But once you start charging it's too much like real work and where's the fun in that eh?
Maybe one day when I'm old(er) and totally desperate for money.

Seph -
Got some real work to do tomorrow but I hope to have something for you by the end of this weekend.

Cheers!

CovertPea -
I really apreciate your efforts and cant way to see the design.

Ishkey-
I agree that we have left this a bit late but this was not due to lack of interest! We had a certain amount of red tape to go through before we were aloud to use the pitch etc, I did not want to waste everyones time on here if the logo would not be used. As for the free stuff, We are aiming to get as much stuff free as possible, right down to new goal posts! As a sunday league side money is tight!

Thanks for your help.

You haven't given me much detail (apart from stripes and colours) so I kind of filled it with what seemed appropriate for a footy team.
How about this?

[sephgreen]

Thanks, I do like the basic design but feel that with the shirt being blue and black striped this maybe would stand out with a white background on the shield and scroll, and also would it be possible to have "Weeting Football Club" Written in the scroll? Or would this be too small. I am finding out information on when the club was acctually formed as we now beleive that the village has had a team dating from the 60's but I will advise. I will show the committee and get their input once the changes have been done. Thanks once again, I really apreciate your efforts.

"Weeting Football Club" Written in the scroll? Or would this be too small.

Yep, that's way too many letters to fit on a scroll.

This is minus the stripes and shown on a black background:

Thanks again for your speedy response. Please put "West Ham Badge" into a Google image search. Can you adjust the sheild to a shape more like that one? and move it up slightly so the bottom of the sheild like the West ham one. and also change the background of the design white? as I think this would look great against the shirt. Thank you very much.
