Brighton & Hove Albion FC Primary Logo
Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club is a professional football club based in the city of Brighton and Hove, England. The team was founded in 1901 and has been playing competitively since then. Over its long history, the club has had many different logos representing it throughout its time in existence.
The first logo used by Brighton & Hove Albion FC was introduced shortly after its formation in 1901. It featured a shield-like shape with two soccer balls on either side of an ‘A’ for ‘Albion’ written inside it along with four stars above it to represent each corner of Sussex County where the team plays home games from time to time. This logo remained until 1911 when they changed their name to 'Brighton United' which led them to change their badge as well - this new design featured an eagle holding a ball within a crest shaped like that of Britain's Royal Coat Of Arms at that period.
In 1974, following several changes over the years including one featuring three seagulls flying around and another ball symbolizing freedom, they returned back to using mainly blue colors on all badges afterward (as opposed to before when other colors were also present). The current primary logo features two overlapping circles containing both white and blue stripes respectively along with "BHAFC" text above them showing off how far they've come from those early days. This particular version was adopted officially in 2017 but some variations still exist today such as ones without any text or just having one circle instead; however, these are not used very often compared to what we see now thus making this design stand out more than ever before!
