BocciaMan Store Logo on Teespring

Hello World,

The first blog post of 2019 will be for showing off the new logo I had designed for the new custom t-shirt design business I started in early December of 2018. It’s still not really off the ground yet but I’m really trying. The business (BocciaMan’s Store) has already made more then this blog ever did so I see it as a good thing.

I worked with a designer and this is the final concept that I liked and approved. The first design I was presented with showed the figure in the image above wearing a cap and had multiple colors. In the second and final draft, the image was changed to a solid color and the hat was removed.

A few weeks later a potential customer asked why there wasn’t a “boccia girl” t-shirt? I told her that I would design for her if would like and so I did. Take a look:

Boccia Woman

I created the name BocciaMan back when AOL was the most popular Internet Service Provider around. From that point, it took over my online identity.

For those of you who are not in the know, I used to compete in Boccia for Team USA Boccia. Boccia is a Paralympic sport that requires precision aiming at a target with a set number of balls. Boccia is a sport for wheelchair athletes. The rules governing boccia include a sophisticated classification system that matches athletes based on their level of disability. Boccia is contested at local, national and international levels. In 1984 boccia became a Paralympic sport, and by 2008 was being practiced in over fifty countries worldwide. This was taken directly from the USA Boccia’s Website.

All this to say being the BocciaMan has been a big part of my life. And as of this past December, I created a clothing brand using the name and a logo to go along with it. A graphic designer helped me develop the logo. But I can’t link to it because her Fiverr page has been removed.

Here are a few links to the best Boccia shirts. Be sure to purchase a few of them for yourselves:
