Just a quick little note, these are my first concepts in Adobe Illustrator, and I'm still learning, so C&C is very much appreciated, and hopefully the concepts will get better as I go along. As far as presentation, the larger rectangle is the jersey logo, with the background color being the jersey color, and the square is the hat logo, with the background color being the hat color. My hope is that these concepts (for the most part), have an unprofessional feel. Ultimately, if this league was a real thing, the purpose would be to have fun, so names, logos, and uniforms aren't supposed to be "professional" like Major League clubs. Some teams will come off as professional, while others will not.
Kansas City Scouts
The Scouts are heavily based on the Kansas City Royals color scheme and the KC Scout statue. The primary logo features "KC", and the secondary logo is the Wiffleball scout.
St. Louis Arches
The entire set is navy/red, drawn heavily from the Cardinals. I felt like this came out as the strongest set of the original four. The "Arch" logo is based on the St. Louis Arch, and the "STL" logo is based on the Cardinals primary logo.
Omaha Train
The "Train" name is based on the rich train activity that was/is going on in Omaha and the state of Nebraska. I felt like a simple set was best for this team, based on my personal disliking of the Omaha Storm Chasers uniform.
Iowa Corn
Pretty self explanatory here, the "Corn" name is based off the corn industry in Iowa. What color is corn? Green and yellow. The Primary logo is an interlocking "IC", and the secondary is a corn husk wearing the teams hat.
There you have it! These are the original four teams, C&C is well appreciated, I will go back and edit these existing sets if need be! Expansion teams coming soon! If you have an idea for a team, comment below! All suggestions are considered, as long as they are in the Midwest!
