Sports Logo History Wordmark 350

There is a sense of belonging we associate with each logo of our favorite teams whom we have been following for our lifetime. Our association with our favorite logo is reminiscent of our loyalty to our favorite brand.

There’s a certain feeling of pride and belonging that occurs once an individual sees the logo of their alma mater or their favorite college team. That pride is enhanced for fans when they see the logo of their favorite sports team. If one’s favorite team has a great track record, one’s sense of pride is even more enhanced because the sports logo is synonymous with success.

Now, sports fans will have a designated place to learn about the history of sports logos. Sports Logo History is the premier online database for finding sports teams' logo history.

At Sports Logo History, we take the history of many professional and collegiate teams' logos, organize those logos, and make them available to all of those sports fanatics who are seeking to feel closer to their favorite team.

It was important to create a website that will increase the sense of belonging that a fan has with their favorite team.  Each team has its own history of struggles, changes, accolades, and special moments that play a part in constructing the image of the fanatic and of the team itself.

What is Sports Logo?

There are a number of misconceptions about logos and historical sports logos that will be tackled here at Sports Logo History. Many of you are used to only seeing a team’s primary logo. The primary logo is more commonly associated with each team because its purpose is to be at the forefront of the marketing image and face of the team. However, fans will get to look at the history of a team’s alternative and wordmark logos for each team as well. This will help fans to learn a well-rounded view of a team’s sports logo history.

A logo is a random assortment of wordmarks and images which are supposed to make sense to their favorite audience due to the rich history behind each of the logos. On this site, we pride ourselves on providing sports team meanings. There are some poignant meanings behind many of the top sports logos. A franchise could have undergone some league-wide, state-wide, or city-wide changes throughout its history. As a result, the franchise may have had no choice but to embrace a new look due to its new overall direction.

There are many factors that are behind the transformation of a franchise’s sports logos over the years. Such factors include sponsors, change in tradition as well as a change in identity.

Sports Logo Battle

While our main focus is to be as informative for all the fans as much as possible, we do not rule out the need for some interactive fun while we continue to bring you the history of some of the most famous sports logos.

With that in mind, Sports Logo History has introduced the idea of "League Logo Battle."

The logo battles are very simple; several logos are paired against each other and the fans are required to vote for one or several logos. Some fans will obviously vote based on their love for a team while others may vote based on the design, overall appeal, and external features of each logo.

Sports are a great escape. It is an exciting way to keep our minds and bodies occupied. At Sports Logo History, we are here to make this great phenomenon into something more tangible. When you find out about the history of the logo of your favorite team, your attachment to your team will only be strengthened.

Types of Sports Logos?

At Sports Logo History,  we cover the history of three different types of logos.  Here are the three different types of logos:

The Three Types of Sports Logos

1. A Primary Logo is the current and main focused logo for promoting each team. It is the logo that will be seen the most.  It will be used the majority of the time when a logo is necessary for all marketing aspects.   This logo should be considered the MVP of a sports team’s brand identity.

2. The Alternate Logo is the same style and design of the team's primary logo, only with a different look or concept design. The alternate logo increases the marketing value of the team with various looks to each alternate logo.   The alternative logo is typically smaller than the primary logo, but it should be cohesive with the team’s brand identity.

3. The team's Wordmark Logo is just that.  It is a wordmark of the name of the team's location, city and/or the team's nickname in a font that is unique and distinctive.  The wordmark logo is typically marked for uniforms and other marketing scenarios.   Wordmark logos are also called “logotypes.“
