We are looking to update our logo to reflect an update in what we do. The uploaded logo is our original, the NG being 'NextGen' and the XV reflecting that we are broadcast and create content around Rugby Union, also reflected in the oval ball shape of the logo.
We now cover a range of different sports and live broadcast is the majority of what we do now. Therefore we would like to move away from the oval logo to a round one (with social media profile photos in mind) and to drop the XV from it.
It could either say NextGen or simply NG, as long as it is recognisably connected to the old logo. We would like to keep the same colour scheme: Black, Red, White. Though grey can also come into it if needed. We would also like to have it in a font that we can replicate across all of our written branding.
We would not be opposed to options that are along the theme: "NextGen Live"
