Design notes

The badge is an upright oval in a claret rim, shaped like the ball on its tee, with a thin gold line inside. Two ink uprights rise to the rim, and the crossbar becomes a dark band with the word AWARD that runs out past both sides of the oval. RUGBY and PLAYER OF THE SEASON sit over the bar, the club's logo above them, and the organisation's name stands between the two red post pads on the ground line, with SEASON HONOURS at the foot. Posts, band and oval still read as rugby at a small thumbnail size.

About

Rugby Award Badge Template, Goal Posts and Pads

The player of the season badge is the digital side of a club's end-of-year presentation night. Rugby clubs, school first fifteens, university sides and junior sections name one player each season, often next to a players' player and a most improved award, and the badge lets the winner carry it onto a profile, a sports CV or a scholarship application. Anyone who clicks it sees which club or school gave it.

Proud to receive the player of the season award from my rugby club. Every tackle, every early training session and every win was shared with a squad I am lucky to play with.
