Northampton Rebels reveal club crest

New Championship 1 club Northampton Rebels have unveiled their club crest, following a fans poll.

The new club will enter the league from 2013, and also used a fans vote to decide on their club nickname, with an increase of more than 50% in votes for the club crest.

Chairman David Cardoza said: “The fans of the Rebels are central to this club and we want to keep them involved as much as we can.

“The increase in the number of fans voting shows already how much we have grown as a club, and we are extremely grateful for all the support we have received so far. We want to continue to develop as a club and maintain the close relationship we have with our fans.”

The chosen crest earned 32% of the vote, with more than 500 fans taking part.

The next step for the club is to now choose a shirt, and once again, Rebels fans will have the ultimate decision as to what is chosen.
