The Logo for the Women’s World Draughts Blitz and Superblitz Championship: A Symbol of Unity

The new logo for the Women’s World Draughts Blitz and Superblitz Championship exudes strength, collaboration, and connection. At its heart lies the slogan ‘Winning Together,’ perfectly capturing the essence of the event. More than just a visual identifier, the logo reflects the core values of the championship: teamwork, ambition, and a sense of community. The combination of sleek lines and subtle details highlights not only the competitive spirit of the sport but also the harmony among participants and stakeholders.

The design incorporates regional elements that pay homage to Drenthe and Hoogeveen, the host regions of this prestigious event. The iconic tower, symbolizing Drenthe’s rich culture and history, lends the logo a local character. Additionally, the distinctive bees of Hoogeveen bring a playful dynamism to the design, reflecting the vibrancy and energy of the blitz and superblitz matches. This unique blend of regional characteristics underscores the pride and involvement of the local community in the tournament.

A particularly notable aspect of the logo is the integration of the collaboration with the DroomDamsters, an initiative that inspires and motivates young talents. The subtle references to this partnership emphasize the importance of inclusivity and the power of collective growth. Designed by Lisa Scholtens, the tournament’s organizer and a participant herself, the logo reflects her deep connection to the event and its values. ‘Winning Together’ is more than a slogan; it is a call to players, organizers, and fans to build a memorable event together. The logo, with its rich symbolism and strong message, sets the stage for a unique championship celebrating the power of unity.
