The design for the Bushfire Bash commemorative t-shirt is unveiled

This afternoon, stalwart Swans Sponsor, www.renow.com.vn finalised the design of the commemorative t-shirt for the Bushfire Bash between the Vietnam Swans and the Bali Geckos on 28 March 2009.

On the back of the shirt is an image of a burnt landscape. Two of the burnt trees symbolise a set of goal posts. Significantly, there are new green shoots sprouting from the “tree” goal posts representing life, continuity and regrowth.

The blue footy sailing through the goal posts is actually the logo of the Yarra Valley Mountain District Football and Netball League. The lines on their logo represent a road winding through the mountains of the Yarra Valley. At the base of one of the goal posts is a conical hat to represent both Bali and Vietnam.
