Club badge updated for next season.
Posted by on 8 April 2011
An updated club badge is being introduced for next season showing the club's history and pedigree, dating back to 1895.
The badge uses the familiar current badge but adds the colours that were in the original design that was penned in 1953 by the club secretary at the time, Derek Mulholland. The badge now includes the date of 1895 which was the date that the club was founded as Shifnal Hockey Club.
The symbology of the badge is
-
Shropshire Loggerhead from the County Badge
-
The white scroll represents some extremely old historical papers kept in Shifnal Church.
-
The cross represents the cross on Shifnal Church.
-
The chain which divides each of the above represents the only manufacturing industry in Shifnal in 1953, that of Chain makers.
The new badge is available exclusively from Seaton Sports, Wellington and is being launched on the U18 boys squad kit who travel to Canterbury today to compete in the All England Finals
