SPWR Champions League was a recurring sales competition across four leagues, built around weekly matchups, rankings, MVPs, results and prizes. I was given the soccer theme and an existing Champions League master logo. I designed all four league logos and developed the visual system across social graphics, apparel, gear and campaign assets. Reusable templates kept the competition consistent as its content changed each week.

Working from the existing Champions League master identity, I created the Apex, Banner, Challenger and Dagger logos. Each league has its own mark, while the campaign’s shared visual language keeps them connected.

A consistent palette, type hierarchy, image treatment and composition carried across four leagues. Results templates accommodated new teams, scores and head-to-head matchups, while ranking templates made promotion and relegation easy to scan. The information changed; the visual structure held together.

MVP portraits and winner announcements brought individuals and teams into the campaign. Shared framing, typography and color connected each spotlight to the weekly results and the larger competition.

The campaign extended into shirts, polos, accessories, custom gear and prize graphics. These applications carried the same competition identity into physical objects and the presentations used to announce them.

Final sales statistics often arrived late Monday afternoon, with graphics scheduled for release on Tuesday. I built flexible templates so names, teams, scores, rankings and MVPs could be updated quickly. Once the identity and templates were established, the system supported an ongoing weekly production cycle without losing consistency.
