Brian in Boston Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 This story, as written, is not quite accurate. The report closes with the line:"The Tuatara will make their debut November 15, along with a second international expansion team in Geelong, Korea, which has yet to release its nickname or branding." Geelong isn't a municipality in South Korea. It is a port city in the Australian state of Victoria, located approximately 75 kilometers (about 46.5 miles) southwest of Melbourne. Geelong-Korea is the name of an Australian Baseball League expansion team that will be based in Geelong, Victoria and have a roster comprised of Korean players.

SSmith48 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I'm into the color scheme. The name is minor-leaguey, but in a cool way. The logo itself makes the tuatara look he's on some aggressive drug. But, this is still not bad.

BrandMooreArt Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 i like the tuatara as a mascot. while Brian Gundell and i were branding Baseball New Zealand, we considered the tuatara as a mascot for them. it has interesting patterns and is culturally important to Maori people. (we went with the great white shark for better reasons though) there were some other names considered for this team but the Tuatara i think is most appropriate one for a NZ based team. glad they went with that one.

I'm sure that you and Brian were pleased when Baseball New Zealand's U13 Ripken All Stars team took to the diamond in the "NZ" cap logo and "NEW ZEALAND" word marks that you designed for the organization. Knowing that the New Zealand U13 Ripken All Stars would be competing at the Cal Ripken World Series, I made a point of checking out the Facebook pages of both the team and governing body during the course of the tournament. I figured it would be just the type of high-profile event at which Baseball New Zealand might opt to unveil your work. Bingo! Baseball New Zealand U13 Ripken All Stars Headed to the United States Baseball New Zealand U13 Ripken All Stars Postgame Press ConferenceBaseball New Zealand U13 Ripken All Stars Press ConferenceBaseball New Zealand U13 Ripken All Stars CoachesBaseball New Zealand U13 Ripken All Stars TeamReally impressive. Thrilled for you, Brian, and Maori designer and tattoo artist Dave Bishop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
