Design notes

The badge is drawn as the finish line at the instant it is crossed. A vermilion tape runs off both edges of a navy disc and breaks in the middle, its two free ends folding back to show the darker underside and finishing in a torn edge. WINNER sits in the gap in condensed capitals, the contest line and year sit below it, and the organisation's name follows the rim. The logo goes above the break. The tape still reads at a small profile size, which makes the badge a fit for any contest where crossing the line first is the story.

About

Winner Badge Template, Breaking the Tape Finish

A winner badge is the version of the award that travels. The moment the results are announced, the person who won a hackathon, a quiz final, a pitch contest, a school sports race or a company challenge can add it to a LinkedIn profile, an email signature or a club page, and anyone who clicks it reaches the verified record of the win.
