Football NSW launches new logo
A new logo was launched by Football NSW on Saturday 21st March during its monumental opening of Valentine Sports Park.
This marks a new chapter for the game in NSW, which now sits in a strong position to further grow and develop in 2015.
Eddie Moore, CEO of Football NSW, unveiled the company’s new identity during Football NSW’s SAP Gala Weekend that attracted over 1800 participants who took part in a festival of football.
“It was a fitting stage to have unveiled our new logo during the SAP Gala Weekend, showcasing the young talent on display in NSW and highlighting a strong future for football in the state.
“Our new visual identity means a lot to us and has been developed to reflect the way the game is continually progressing.”
The fresh brand for Football NSW coincided with a rebrand and new logo for Valentine Sports Park.
The $22 million dollar redevelopment multi-purpose facility and headquarters of Football NSW includes two new synthetic surfaces, stadium quality grass pitch, spectator seating, amenities for players, officials and spectators. Other features include an administration block and learning centre, renovated accommodation block, futsal court, gymnasium and café which provides facilities for country NSW, interstate and international teams to play and train.
The venue is also designed to service the sport and recreation needs of the local community, with netball, volleyball, handball and basketball already making use of the facilities, in addition to the swimming pool which houses learn to swim classes.
“These state of the art facilities support the development of the game at all levels from grassroots through to the elite,” Moore said.
“Valentine Sports Park will become a hub for the football family, connecting the community through a modern facility.
“It is estimated over 200,000 people will pass through the venue every year and I envisage this to further grow in years to come.”
Speaking at the launch, Football NSW Chairman of the Board Greg O’Rourke echoed these sentiments.
“This fresh new approach combining our wonderful new state-of-the-art facility as well as the rebranding of logos is a sign that the game is changing and moving upward.
“This is our time. The game is in our hands, and the future for this code has never looked brighter.”
