Hey all,

This is my first time posting here and my first real stab at creating a concept series for jersey designs. I have some experience in the past in creating jerseys for online hockey league forums, but never have done as many concepts for a league like the NHL. C&C is welcome and appreciated by a newcomer in the field of jersey designing.

First up we have the Anaheim Ducks.

The Mighty Ducks logo is back and in the spotlight. One thing that I like about the real current Ducks set is the inclusion of orange, and wanted to bring that as the main color. Gold is eliminated in the color pallet.

So, @JCRGraphix was nice enough to let me revive the IHA, using some of his artwork. 

The IHA will start in 1991-92, as a minor league to the WHL, which can be found here, or here.

The first team, is the Minsk Bisons affiliate, the Belgrade Wolves. 

For the Wolves, I kept things simple, especially for the 1990's. The Wolves will keep this look until they got promoted in 1995, when they went a little bit more 1990s.

The white jersey is the home, dark is away.

Hey guys,

Wanted to take a shot at a new project...this is my first attempt working with Illustrator rather than Inkscape. I'm using my own template (which has been slightly streamlined). I envisioned a new look for the Falcons, whose current uniform has been stale for about a decade. This new set would coincide with the new stadium and is more of a throwback look.

The overall look harkens back to the beautiful throwbacks from 1966 with the addition of sleeve stripes. I felt conflicted because I love the Northwestern style stripes they've worn before...I also love the gray pants with the red, white, and black stripe (same as the Super Bowl 1998 team's pants)...but mixing those with the helmet and you have a complete hodgepodge of striping patterns. So I've started from the helmet and the throwback pants stripe and expanding into a simple and consistent stripe across all elements.

I have designed a custom number font. It's somewhat based off of the wordmark font and tweaked but I think it's still rather simple.

I have also included an "Inaugural Season" patch on the black jersey, which I'd imagine they would wear for the very first game at the new stadium.

Hello Everyone and welcome to my brand new project. The National Volleyball League I have been planning this project out since mid July and I am so excited to finally start it. Basically what this is, is a world where Volleyball is one of the most popular sports n North America and there is a 30 team processional mens league that spans through United States and Canada. It is basically the volleyball version of the NBA,NFL,MLB and NHL. I personally play high school volleyball and I absolutely love it. I always love watching Volleyball in the Olympics and I think that it is a thoroughly enjoyable game to watch. I think a major league in volleyball would be amazing and I wanted to bring my ideas to life on these boards. this will be a big change of pace for me as I am creating all original logos and uniforms for all 30 franchises. This is by far my most ambitious project that  have ever done but I really feel like I am up for it.  So here we go with the title page for the league.

This title page features the official league logo which features a silhouette of a player smashing a volleyball. The NVL abbreviation follows with the shield design and the two blue lines beside the player represent the borders of a volleyball court. The red, blue and white color scheme follows the NFL,NBA and MLB because I felt that it should really feel like it is an elite league like those ones. The league wordmark is below the logo and is fairly simple but uses a powerful font. The 30 teams are shown on the side of the page in their 5 teams divisions and conferences. The Easter and Western Conference logos are shown at the top to show what conference each team will play in. I chose 8 Canadian cities and 22 American cities for this league. Volleyball is very big where I come form and I think that Canada would do well with 8 teams in this league.

Here is also a bigger version of the Eastern and Western conference logos

These logos go together well as they point opposite ways and have opposite gradients and colors. I really like how these turned out and I hope you guys like them.

So there is the introduction to the league. The first team is already finished and I may post it later tonight. I would love to hear what everyone thinks of this idea because I know that it will be fairly unique for these boards as volleyball is not brought up very much. Each team will be posted with logos, jerseys and a court. Without further ado, I officially declare this project started.

After reading that the Titans were looking at a refresh, I thought I'd take a shot at fixing that horrid helmet logo. 

Lose the flames, and utilize the sword... with a few color options

Hello everyone, I have a big project for you that i've been working one for a while. I made concepts for 6 new possible NHL teams.

1. Québec Nordiques

2. Portlans Mountaineers

3. Hamilton Beasts

4. Seattle Sasquatch

5. Halifax Schooners

6. Las Vegas Silver Bullets (hopefully there isn't any controversy with gun control and all that stuff)

I am Willing to do 2 more teams with your suggestions!

This is all for fun, just to see what the brands would look like.

Here is a teaser of every team, and I'll post them one by one.

Which team are you most excited for? I'll post the one with the most buzz first!

HJC (HockeyJerseyConcepts.com) has started a contest in which participants design a new logo, uniforms, and a "Wild Card" item for an NHL expansion team called the Americans, based off of the old Brooklyn Americans hockey club. I put my club in Seattle, made a logo and jerseys, as well as a rally/playoff towel. All designs are below.

There ya go! What do you think?

Here's the contest link, by the way.

With the NFL Playoffs starting today, I decided to mock up some ideas I had for a three NFL Teams: the Saints, Steelers, and Cowboys.  I loved the color rush uniforms for both the Saints and Steelers; ideas from both are implemented in these concepts.  

For the Saints, the concept basically is their color rush; there is no reason they shouldn't adopt that look full time.  I simplified their helmet logo a bit and brought back the Louisiana state outline logo as a chest patch.  In addition to the white jerseys taken from the color rush set, the concept includes a black jersey with gold-white-gold-white-gold stripes as well as a gold jersey with b-w-b-w-b stripes.  An alternate white helmet idea is also shown; it would only be used if the NFL were to lift the one helmet rule, obviously.

Author's Notes: Teams will be revealed as the series progresses, schools discussed in the history portion will replace generic references upon reveal. I also plan to include more graphics in this section as teams are revealed.

THE HISTORY

The year is 2011. West Virginia has just completed an agreement to move to the Big 12, and both Pittsburgh and Syracuse challenged their commitments to the Big East. In order to reduce the impact of impending loss of teams, the Big East began searching for replacements. Initially, the league attempted to poach teams from two smaller, but well-respected conferences, the New England Eight and the Great Appalachian Athletic Conference. Immediately, the conference lured Norfolk College, who had risen to prominence after three straight FBS top 25 finishes and finished the 2009 season 11-1, narrowly missing a BCS Bowl. Noticing the Big East’s desperation and the beginning of the Super Conference trend, NE8 commissioner Arnold Gardner hatched a plan to keep his conference together. Gardner contacted GAAC commissioner Ron B. Lalonde and pitched the formation of a new super conference that would bring together the 8 teams from the NE8 and the CAAC’s remaining six schools. With the promise of renewed stability, national prominence, and the development of a conference television network, the 14 schools agreed to form the New England/Mid-Atlantic Conference (NEMAC), scheduled to form starting in 2013 to coincide with the departure of Norfolk College. Due to these new revelations, Norfolk filed a lawsuit to prevent the merger if not allowed to remain. However, because discussions of a merger only occurred after Norfolk announced its plan to move, the new NEMAC conference prevailed. 

Suddenly, with 2 serious football title contenders, as well as several other top 25 finishers, the NEMAC was positioned to become a new power conference. This was ensured by collapse of the Big East conference several years later. Since its inception, the NEMAC has become a top national conference poised to make a run at National Championships in several sports. 

THE TEAMS

The NEMAC consists of 14 teams located in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts (3), Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York (2), New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Ohio (2). Divisions consist of seven teams each based geographically. The East Division consists of 7 members of the NE8 with Hale moving to the West Division to join the GAAC teams. NOTE: Divisions only exist for football. Each school is a full member, with all 14 participating in every major sport except hockey (8 schools make up the NMAC Hockey conference). 

THE LOGOS

The NEMAC logo is derived from a combination of elements from the NE8 and the GAAC. The logo’s main shape and mountain are homages to the shape of the original GAAC logo. The 10 stars above the logo and the italicization of the letters are derived from the NE8 logo. Finally, the primary color of each logo was used in the color scheme. 

Each team also wears a jersey patch featuring only the conference name. These patches will be worn in team colors upon the uniforms of all sports.

First Up: Maine State University

The other thread I made was too cluttered for my liking, so I decided to just do as many top division leagues as possible. I'm starting with Serie A. First up is Atalanta B.C. their kits this year were pretty good, but I wanted to put my own spin on them. And Yes, I'm aware that they resemble this year's Inter kits, but that just means I'm going to change up Inter.

After seeing a fruitful discussion about a Washington Redskins throwback uniform from 2002-2003,  I decided to make my first uniform concept since 2013. These aren't anything groundbreaking, but they represent the latest of what I would want to see my NFL team do with their uniforms. C&C appreciated. 

So, I was browsing through the minor league baseball logo files and I came across a few that are in desperate need of a refreshing or... much more than that. One of the worst logos in my opinion was the Tri-City Dust Devils of the Northwest League whose main emblem is rudimentary at best. I also felt their design as a whole was dated, so i really wanted to take them on. I don't know if I'll work on a few more teams for this alongside my Updates & Overhauls thread, I'll just have to play it by ear, But I will be posting uniforms for the Devils. So, here is my take on the Tri-City Dust Devils:

C&C is appreciated, Thx!

Hello once again, everyone! If you've been on the boards for some time, you may have seen me post concepts like this before. I've done MLB, I did NFL, and recently, I asked on Twitter which one I should tackle next. How it works is: imagine if every team in the league got a rebrand/refresh. New wordmarks, new primary, sometimes, new colors. Sometimes old throwback colors! Who knows?! Traditionally speaking, I have not done uniforms for the rebranding effort - but, if someone wanted to do that, you're more than welcome to. Just be sure to credit me for the work I've done.

But without further ado, here's the new look Raptors.

I am accepting requests for converting custom logos in an embroidered look.

Post a high resolution image.

So I was working on a few concepts and and they had white helmets so I got the idea to do a league where every team has a white helmet. The concepts that follow are based on that premise. First up is the AFC North.

I will start with Baltimore. I simplified the color scheme and went with just purple black and white of course.

Next up is Cincinnati. I had a similar concept to this before which I re worked a little. I really like the contrast the white helmet gives this set.

Next is Cleveland. I went the opposite way of NIKE, but liked the drop shadow that Cleveland has used. The helmet, even in white, just looked wrong with any kind of logo.

Pittsburgh is last, changed things up a little more with this one.

Six months after the unveiling of the new Maple Leafs uniform, I'm used to the mega-thick stripe on the hem, but I actually don't like the classic double stripes on the arms. A great logo like this needs a bold design to compliment it, so I decided to make my fix. The Arenas' 4-stripe barberpole adjusted to fit the thick hem stripe replaces the double stripe, while on the home the stripe is lowered to throwback to the Arenas and form a T with the new pants. The stripe is kept where it is on the away, so the negative white space on the hem connects with the pants. The pants themselves are simple. so to go with the stripe I just put the simple Arenas' T.

To show the full uniform and the T on the pants, I used one of JCRGraphix's great templates.

C&C Appreciated!

June 9th 2009 - Rondelle, Ocella

Press Release: AHBA Commissioner Karen Raito

"It is with great pleasure that I can announce that the Asaca HoopBall Association's inaugural season will officially begin on Februrary 20th 2010.

We are currently looking for owners and viable locations for six francises, two of which have already been purchased and will be playing right here in Rondelle.

I am also happy to announce that there will be a school based league, the Asaca School HoopBall Association, which will act as a talent feed for the AHBA.

HoopBall is a huge part of Asacan culture, and it seems only right that we show off this country's best talent.

Thank you all for coming out to witness the start of a big leap for Asacan sports.

Background Info:

First off, this is obviously my first topic here, so I will mention my art skills aren't fantastic by any means, but I will definitely try my best.

I'm planning for this to become a league/ season simulation but right now I'm not sure on how that's gonna work.

HoopBall is similar to basketball and shares many rules with it, particularly the NBA/WNBA, with size of the court, markings and height of the rim identical of the WNBA rules.

Where it differs is the total number of players on court. Each team has 10 players on court, 5 on offense and 5 on defense. The five on offence are not allowed over the half court line to where the defense is, and the five on defense aren't allowed over the half court line to where the offense are. When the ball is over the half court in either team's possession, HoopBall plays like basketball. 3 points for a shot outside the arc, two for a shot inside and one for a free throw. Each quarter is 10 minutes long, with a 5 minute break between the 1st and 2nd quarters, and also between the 3rd and 4th. Halftime is 20 minutes long.

The home team starts with the ball at half court for the first and fourth quarter, with the away team starting with the ball at half court for the second and third. Overtimes are 5 minutes long, and the ball starts at half court with the team who scored last. Overtimes feature 5 minute breaks between each overtime reqiured.

Asaca is a country around the size of Tasmania, and is a similar shape. Asaca has a mix of Japanese and English heritage with classical English architecture featured prominently. Many residents have Japanese first and last names because of the Japanese heritage, but there are even people with a mix of English and Japanese names. The AHBA is the only major sporting league aside from the ASHBA active in Asaca.

Asaca has two states: Inada and Ocella.
Inada has three main cities; Asuka, Chibihasa and Hikaru. Inada in general is middle class and each of the three cities feature a few offices and the usual collection of shopping centers and whatnot. Ocella features the highest level of difference in class. Ocella has two main cities, Rondelle and Turrif. 
Rondelle is a classic city with little to no modern influence, apart from the incredibly modern airport. Rondelle features a grand castle in which Asaca's royalty reside. Royal influence makes Rondelle very high class. In comparison Turrif is the grit and grind city of Asaca. Turrif features Asaca's only port and many small houses & businesses. Turrif isn't the prettiest place and the saying form follows function is especially true here. 

The AHBA is Asaca's new premier sports league. It's offices are located in Rondelle, Ocella. It will feature 6 teams in this its inaugural season, in two conferences (Southern and Northern) The AHBA is a women's league, with no current interest to form a male league. The AHBA does however wish to have 10 teams by the 2020 season. 

Let me know what you think so far. I'll be starting to make uniforms and logos as soon as I find a template for the uniforms. I will go more in depth with info about playoffs, more individual city profiles, schedule and other things when I get there. 

(p.s. I am male, though my forum name may not suggest that.)

I have came up with this new league, because of the recent talk of the NFL Developmental League and I need everyone's help!

You CAN start a team (become the gm), find a location, design the uniforms and logos.

Make sure the team NAME, COLORS AND LOGOS RELATE to the NFL affiliate's name, and other stuff.

Also make sure the PDFL team is not to far from its affiliate!

*Has to be the real Minor league/independent league baseball parks

1. Tell me what NFL team will be your affiilate

2. Design (Make sure the team NAME RELATES to the NFL affiliates name and the PDFL team is not to far from its affiliate!)

This list will be update over time, as teams are filled!

PDFL

Pro Developmental Football League

*Teams will be affiliated with NFL organizations.

In this league, the teams will play at AAA, AA, A and a few Independent league baseball stadiums in the U.S. (similar to the FXFL)

This is my first time really posting anything on here but I've been reading and following these forums and this site for several years now. For the past year I've been closely following the AFA project (History of a Fictional Football League, http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/98092-history-of-a-fictional-football-league-new-orleans-krewe-field/) and it inspired me to create a fictional league of my own for Hockey. Using the site https://www.random.org/lists/ I've been simulating through the seasons and creating logos & uniforms for each team. I've started the league at the 1939-40 season, with nine teams. I have results completed through the 1945-46 season as well as uniform changes so I will post one season every few days until I'm caught up, at which point I will begin posting the seasons as they happen. Because I've already completed a few seasons, the designs for the first few seasons will be pretty much set in stone but I will be accepting feedback as we get into re-branding & expansion in the '50s and '60s.

Here are the uniforms for the 1939-40 season. The template is a modified version of one I found online and will be updated as the series moves along. I wanted to keep the early logos very simple so I mostly used letters & clipart, although I created some (Boston, Detroit, Philadelphia) from scratch. logos will become more original in the future.


Standings:

1. Hamilton
2. Detroit
3. Toronto
4. Chicago
5. Montreal
6. Boston
7. Philadelphia
8. Windsor
9. New York

For two decades, pro hockey was played in three major leagues; the Southern Ontario Hockey League, the American Professional Hockey Association, and the Quebec Hockey League. After years of fighting between the two leagues it was decided to create a new league made up of the top teams from each league and the Professional Hockey League (PHL) was formed with former Toronto Racers owner Henry Lewis elected as league president. The Hamilton Kings dominated the regular season on a 30-goal effort from 10-year veteran Johnny Williams. The New York Civics finished last place despite a big rookie season from 16-year-old Sam "Skippy" Cleveland. The Toronto Racers caught fire in the playoffs, defeating Chicago before pulling off a huge upset over the rival Kings in the semifinals to face the Montreal Royale in the finals. In the best-of-5 final, Montreal took a 2-0 series lead before the Racers stormed back to win the championship with winger Wally Girard scoring the winner in game 5.

So, now that I got the Miami Marlins off my chest, I figured I should tweak the other teams that have been bothering me too.  Nothing bothered me as much as the Marlins, but it doesn't take much to aggravate me...sadly.

The next team I wanted to put a paint brush to was San Diego.  Like most, I feel they should be going back to the brown and yellow colors.  I on the other hand want to put more emphasis on the brown and keep the yellow to a minimum.  I have no issue with their current word scripts and uniform style, I just feel the brown and yellow would look better.  So with that in mind, here is my version of the Padres.

The away has a grey that has very slight orange tint to it, just to give it some warmth with the brown and yellow.

Then there is the Home alternate.  The big trend of having the logo over the heart/left side is not missed on the Padres.

I'm currently working on a brown top alternate for the road as well as a new main logo that will combine a few era's logos with the swinging friar as the center piece.

How does that look?  C+C appreciated.
