It all started with an idea...

A short, interactive guide helped them discover their design style and clearly captured what they needed.

Needs

The logo and identity should be a classic look that fits an national sports federation. The NPSA is effectively, the national association for IPSC shooting and regional representative of IPSC International. Furthermore, the logo and identity should convey sport!

Initially, the demand is for a logo and new identity, however, the new corporate identity will be the base for the development of the new website, team shirts for the Dutch team that will go into the U.S. at the World Championships in October and use of the magazine, advertisements, social media et cetera.

Company description

The NPSA is the national sports federation en Dutch official representation for IPSC shooting in the Netherlands.
Practical shooting is a dynamic branch of shooting, which is practiced worldwide by young and old, male and female, indoor and outdoor. In 90 countries shooters measure themselves with each other regularly in national and international competitions. IPSC can be shot with small arms and rifle.

The motto of IPSC is "DVC" which originates from the Latin Diligentia, Vis, Celeritas (precision, power, speed ). Besides the number of points you shoot also the time you need to shoot thosepoints matters. And because every game is different also an appeal is made to the strategic insight of the shooter. The combination of these elements makes IPSC shooting an exciting and versatile form of shooting.

Target group

In addition to all the existing IPSC members all shooters in other disciplines in the Netherlands are an important target group, as well as those interested in the shooting sports but who are not yet members of a shooting club (but who may be interested to join us in the future).

Colors, favourites and other requirements

The logo and corporate identity should get a look that fits an national sports association that the NPSA is. This should also definitely come back in the logo and color scheme of the identity (The overall known national color for The Netherlands is orange). Furthermore, the logo should convey the sport! Preferably no guns or rifles in the logo, the focus should be on the sportive character of this great sportsdiscipline .

The motto DVC ( see logo IPSC International ) Diligentia , Vis , Celeritas (precision , power, speed ) may certainly be incorporated in the new logo but isn’t a must.

The logo itself can contain the orange color but also The Dutch colors of the national flag (red white-blue) can be incorporated... creativity is appreciated.

Initially, the demand is for a logo and new identity, however, the new corporate identity will be the base for the development of the new website, team shirts for the Dutch team that will go into the U.S. at the World Championships in October and use of the magazine, advertisements, social media et cetera.

Dag René,
Iets minder formeel logo door toch een figuur op te nemen achter de naam. Precies de manier waarop mensen schieten.... achter 'schermen'. De schutter in de specifieke houding vertelt zelfs zonder naam waar het om gaat.
De vorm van de 'schijven' als een soort van schild gebruikt om het logo in een duidelijke vorm te plaatsen.
Graag feedback om eventueel bij te stellen of verder te werken.

Groet, Wim Nijenkamp

Beste Wim,

Andere approach dan ik in gedachte had:-) Het ornaje is al wel beter. Ik denk dat we het wat meer moeten zoeken in de vorm van het IPSC schild of een afgeleide daarvan. Ik zal straks een bestand uploaden (bestand nummer 3)met daarin een aantal verschillende IPSC logo's van andere landen. Misschien dat dit een beetje als benchmark gebruikt kan worden.
