Morganton Town FC
With Morganton, I immediately knew I wanted to look towards one of my favorite breweries in the state — Fonta Flora — for inspiration. While I ended up not taking any elements directly from their logo, I did latch onto the flora aspect with the focal point being an embossed flower plant. The colors are pulled directly from the Morganton flag, except for the dark green in the leaf that needed the contrast to differentiate itself from the rest of the plant.
The most exciting thing about this creation was learning about the Catawba River Soccer Complex. This facility already has a great setup for lower division soccer — there is lighting, stands are in place, and there even are changing rooms. I am honestly surprised that nobody has tried tapping this facility for a UPSL side already.

The kit I wanted to take in a direction that I don’t normally like. going bold with the use of colors. The dark blue sits in the background in their home kit while the bright green print pops out to grab the viewers’ attention. I added in a gold collar and trim for good measure on the garishness.
Special thanks to Russell Varner for his help editing.
About me
First and foremost I am an amateur with no formal training. My hope is that this series will spark other creatives to make their own versions. Learn more about the series here. I was born and raised in Middlesex, North Carolina and have spent most of my adult life living in Raleigh. I am a fan of the beautiful game who wants to see it grow at the grassroots level.
