The New Face of Satya Vijaya

For the first time in the Satya Vijaya SC’s illustrious history, a club crest will adorn the traditional green shirts. Designed by Satya Vijaya Committee Member and Team Manager Shailesh Karkera, the new crest is part of a project to re-vamp the club’s current profile.

“A crest is the face of a Football Club. The image that is most easily recognised by it’s fans and players alike.” explains Karkera, “The key was to work with the two primary club colours – Green and White – and create something that was clutter-free and most imortantly, original.”

The logo features a Giant Star bordering a circular design. “The idea behind the circular layout of the logo was to ensure that it would be easy on the eye as well as a continious design without any edges. I was tempted to work with the current mould of V-shaped logo designs but decided upon something unique.”, says Karkera.

 

Furthermore, he lays major emphasis on the two elements forming the heart of the emblem –

“The lion symoblises our team’s fighting spirit and leadership qualities. The lion is a dominant creature and quite rightly, the king of the jungle. The number 1929 signinfies the year in which the team was formed – and that , by itself, speaks volumes of our existence as a community based football club – which also happens to be one of the oldest in Mumbai.”

Love it or hate it, the squad will take to the hallowed KSA pitch with the new crest from here on out.
