The Inter CT FC Badge

WHAT'S IN A BADGE?

Most clubs across the world are instantly recognised by their badge.  Badges are seen as the identity of the club.  As such, they should represent the culture and history of that club.  A lot of thought went into our identity and culture as we decided on how we wanted to take the club forward.  Therefore, a lot of thought also went into the design of the badge and what it means and how it aligns with our vision, mission, culture, and philosophies.

SHAPE

We wanted a shape that was unique and one that is strong and easily identifiable.  We decided on a shape that had vertical and horizontal lines of symmetry.  This represents the solid structure and foundation of the club, as well as being easy on the eye.

Behind the badge

COLORS

The colors chosen for the badge carry several  key meanings in how they represent the club.

BLACK

Our primary color is black. To us this means strength, authority, and power as well as carrying a hint of elegance. Using black in our badge empowers our players to stamp their authority on the opposition and build every strength in their arsenal.

WHITE

Our secondary color is white. This compliments black well in that it means goodness and positivity. Which is a vital part of how we want our players to behave in all aspects of their life. White is also an aspiration to the bright future of the club as we grow, excel and spread positivity to our members.

BLUE

Blue is a mark of respect for our past. Having formed and succeeded as Everton America we wanted to carry some of what was important to us as we stride into the future. Blue is the color of loyalty and we want to remain loyal to some of the positive influences from our past whilst we build, grow and develop with the future in mind.

GOLD

Gold is associated with excellence and is the color of courage, passion, and wisdom. Which aligns greatly with our culture and philosophy. The gold is minimal in its role in our badge which represents humility but brooding underneath is a passion to excel and be the best.

The importance of the squares

A - Equality as they are similar in size. This means we treat all our players in the most positive and fair way not favoring one over the other but seeing each player as someone we are totally invested in. 

B - Diversity; in that they are different colors and that reflects the diversity of our members and players perfectly. We love this aspect.

C - Strength; in that they are connected, binded together and strong, not separated, alone and weak. We see strength in numbers and value in diverse culture and fairness and equality.

Did you know? The squares on the badge are inspired by the peace mural in Marty Walkers home town of Derry. Read more here: https://www.interctfc.com/news_article/show/1107759

SUBTLETIES

 

HALO

The small halo at the top of the badge is a homage to our home - All Saints School in Norwalk. We have called it our home for years and hope to do so for many more, with visions of making it the best soccer facility in this area. Our home is a great strength and sets us apart from many other clubs. We have a stable location and we felt it was important to reflect this in our badge.

 
FC

FC comes with a duel meaning.  In soccer terms FC means Football Club. It represents our roots in Football, as we call it. However, it also salutes our location, Fairfield County, where many of our members come from. As INTER we value the massive reach we have across the world. As FC we love and appreciate our location geographically and with our HALO we are proud to say we have a specific home.

SQUARES

Like the sash, the squares are ascending and represent positivity and direction. They also mean that as a club  we will provide the best stepping stones to success, as our players progress through the long term development pathway.

SASH

The sash in our badge is moving in an upward trajectory and is white (color of positivity). The sash direction indicates positive progression a bright future for the club.

MMXIX

MMXIX is the roman numeral depiction of the year 2019 which is the year of inception for INTER Connecticut. This is a stamp that indicates change and a foundation upon which we build our dreams for many years to come.
