NCVBCA Brand Kit

WE ARE THE NORTH CAROLINA VOLLEYBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION

The NCVBCA is made up of dedicated coaches from North Carolina with the vision for an association for high school volleyball coaches to foster community, advocacy, and recognition for student-athletes and coaches across the state. The purpose of the NCVBCA is to promote the game of volleyball in the state of North Carolina, to recognize the accomplishments of volleyball (academically and athletically) across the state and to provide education to coaches to advance the game.

The NCVBCA is a proud member of the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Signature Affiliate Program, designed to incentivize AVCA membership, advance the high school volleyball community, and establish the AVCA as the official coaching education partner within participating states.

OUR LOGO

The modern design represents the NCVBCA’s commitment to promote the sport, its players, and coaches. The new logo builds on the foundation set over the NCVBCA’s seven years of dedicated service to the North Carolina volleyball community through the continuation of organization’s color scheme, strong block lettering, and volleyball over the “NCVBCA” name and state outline. The shield-style logo is designed to represent the high level of competitiveness in North Carolina volleyball while conveying the unity and strength through the NCVBCA's role as a valued AVCA Signature Affiliate Partner, a connection which grants all its members dual membership in the NCVBCA and AVCA.

The volleyball net in the background resembles the net showcased in the AVCA’s new logo-launched in 2023, demonstrating an ongoing commitment to partnership as the associations work together to advance the sport. Just as collaboration makes teams stronger, the network of the AVCA’s Signature Affiliate Partners nationwide makes the sport stronger. Many of the AVCA Signature Affiliates are moving towards a similar stylized shield logo. While the NCVBCAs new logo carries some similarities to the logos of other Signature Affiliates, the clear distinction is portrayed through the map of North Carolina marked by the capital city in Raleigh, local color palette, and prominent central position of the organization’s respected name.

COLOR PALETTE

The below colors (and corresponding hex codes) are used in NCVBCA branding.

LOGO USE

full color logos

one-color logos

Use the full-color versions whenever possible. However, there may be circumstances where it is necessary to produce the logo in one color - such as when full-color logos do not sufficiently contrast with the background color, or where production methods and materials require the use of a one-color logo.  The one-color logo should never be produced in any other single colors other than the ones shown in all-black and all-white.

Grayscale logos

Incorrect logo use

For maximum impact and overall consistency, it is important to protect the value and integrity of the NCVBCA identity by using the logo correctly.
