Design Brief: Unified Logo for Hockey Geelong & Representative Teams
Background
Hockey Geelong (HG), formerly referred to as Geelong Hockey Association oversees community and representative field hockey across the Geelong region, Australia. We currently operate with 2 logos — one for the Association (HG) and one for our representative teams, the Hockey Geelong Sharks (Sharks)
We want to unify our identity under a single modern, versatile logo that reflects our values, heritage, and coastal identity.
Current Design Elements
The existing association logo features:
• Three wave-like forms, symbolizing our coastal location
• Navy and white to reflect the Geelong Cats and local sporting identity
• Forest green, a nod to our original association colours
• Mauve, chosen for distinctiveness among clubs using navy, green, or white
The representative team logo “Sharks” is more abstract and dynamic, often used for high-performance branding.
Design Goals
• Create one modern logo that represents both the association and our representative teams.
• Retain meaningful elements like:
o Coastal imagery or flow (waves)
o Colour references to Geelong: navy and white
o Green as a nod to our legacy
• Replace the mauve with hot pink to:
o Acknowledge the role of women in hockey
o Align with recent popular use in uniforms (e.g. pink socks for Women’s Round)
o Modernize and add vibrancy without dominating the palette
Logo Requirements
• The logo must work across multiple formats: apparel, digital media, signage, and print
• Should include a simplified version (or be adaptable) for embroidery or small-scale use
• Should be appropriate for all ages and genders
• Prefer clean, modern shapes, incorporating elements of motion, unity, and growth
Text Elements (Optional)
• Can include “Hockey Geelong”
• A symbol-only version should also be considered for flexibility
Deliverables
• Full colour logo (primary version)
• Mono (black/white) and single-colour versions
• Horizontal and stacked variations
• Vector (AI, EPS), PNG, JPEG, SVG formats
Deadline
• Please provide initial concepts within 10 days of project approval.
Updates
We need some “clever” submissions. Our committee want to see some designs that DO NOT look like AI.
Remove the word SHARK
2 different thoughts -Working a FEILD HOCKEY STICK into the design
And making the design of the Shark to look more realistic (less child like)
… still keeping the design simple
