CBL website offers first look at new team logos
Vancouver, B.C. - After announcing team names in early January, the Canadian Baseball League is pleased to announce the release of team logos for its inaugural season,
which kicks off in late May.
"We love them" said Canadian Baseball League President and CEO, Tony Riviera. "The CBL logos incorporate both a high level of creativity
and local flavor. They're a lot of fun and we're certain they will become some of the best known logos in the Canadian sports community"
continued Mr. Riviera.
The logos run from clean and classy (see the Abbotsford Saints and Nanaimo Navigators), to the bold and modern (see the Red Deer Outlaws, Kelowna Heat and Regina
Storm), to wild and distinctive (see the Lethbridge Dust Devils, Saskatoon Yellow Jackets and Kamloops Critters).
All of the new logos can be viewed online at
www.canadianbaseballleague.com/teams.htm, the official site of the Canadian Baseball League.
