Our Logo
Fresh, modern new identity created to continue to increase our brand awareness in a more prominent digital world. The illustrated design incorporates every aspect of the sport, powerchair football. A design that made the Eel more impactful.
The new logo retains all three key visual elements; the Eel, powerchair with a bumper and our club nick name with a traditional American sports brands look. The Eels is a more prominent figure within our logo with the powerchair added within the Eel shape. Additionally, the football has been added to signify it being a football club badge. Finally, Electric Eels has been added to continue our historic club nickname.

Our Brand Journey
Our
How
The whole process start to finish, has took three months from our club committee initially looking and considering of taking this step.
Two initial concepts were presented to the club, both nailing the club’s brief. The club committee then took their time in a long period to delve into both concepts to determine which, one they preferred and what aspects they liked and some that they wanted to be changed. This process involved incorporating elements from both designs to create the final version which, received an overwhelming approval from the club committee.
The key part of insight received from our club committee and some of our commercial partners is how prominent the Eel now is and how it incorporates the powerchair and bumper within the Eels shape. As well as the significant part of Electric Eels being prominent to continue our historic nickname.
Our
Why
Over the years, consuming digital content has vastly changed making club, charities and businesses of all sectors consider how their brand awareness is perceived. We felt now was the perfect time, to evolve our identity as we look to increase our brand awareness.
The current badge inspired by the club mascot Eel remains a significant part of the Club’s identity and modernised to a format that will maximise our exposure on digital platforms and takes the club to an exciting future ahead.
Everyone at the club are working hard to take our club towards an exciting future.
