Over the last couple of months, a lot of work has been happening behind the scenes to research and evaluate the club's presence, both online and on pool deck, which includes the logo design and uniform options. In particular it was noted that our current swimming cap was not easily recognizable or visible from a distance, especially during streamed/televised events, and that our uniforms and caps had too many different colour and text variations, giving an inconsistent and incohesive presence at meets.
The Committee had many discussions over several months about how to improve and strengthen the presence of the club, and honed in on the idea of refreshing the club logo. Greater visibility of our swimmers and club was also a main consideration, recognizing that this can also lead to more opportunities and attention from potential sponsors, partners and new members.
In September, a cross section of members from the club including Life Members, coaches, swimmers and parents, were invited to share their voice and opinion on 2 design directions. The results of these focus group discussions were then brought back to the Committee so a decision could be made on the direction the club would go.
After many hours of work, discussion with key stakeholders and intense consideration for the Club’s almost 100 year history, we are very excited to unveil RSC’s refreshed, new look! Please click on the attached presentation to view the logo and new uniform items.
We will be doing a cap exchange for all swimmers once the new caps arrive (there will be no charge) and a polo exchange for members who have purchased a polo within the last 2 months.
We are also offering some uniform package discounts for one month. We are hoping to have the new caps within a few weeks and will place the first uniform order on November 8th, so please be sure to follow the ordering instructions if you would like to take advantage of the package discount and have your new uniform items by early December.
Please note that there have been some additional packages added, which can be found in the FAQ document
We hope you’re as excited about our new look as we are! We can’t wait to see everyone wearing our new caps and uniform items!
