YKBK, a new and dynamic 3x3 basketball league, approached Bounty Co with a mission to capture the fast-paced, exciting nature of street basketball while appealing to a young, vibrant audience. The brand needed to represent energy, competitiveness, and a modern vibe that would resonate with players and fans alike.
With basketball being one of the most popular sports worldwide, YKBK required a distinctive identity to stand out in the crowded sports entertainment space. Their vision was to establish a brand that felt as energetic and thrilling as the game itself—something that would speak to both players on the court and spectators off the court.

The Solution: Bounty Co’s Creative Approach to Brand Identity
To bring YKBK’s vision to life, Bounty Co crafted a high-impact, modern brand identity that embraced youth culture and fast-paced action. Our approach focused on four key elements:
- Logo Design: A Symbol of Dynamic Movement
Bounty Co created a sleek, bold logo that captures the fast, fluid nature of 3x3 basketball. The logo incorporates sharp angles and motion-inspired lines, reflecting speed, agility, and the competitive spirit of the league. The typeface was designed to feel both modern and aggressive, giving the logo a strong visual presence. The bright, Nike-inspired green was used as the primary accent to evoke excitement, while the deep navy tone added sophistication and balance. - Brand Identity & Guidelines: Consistency in Action
To ensure a unified and consistent brand experience, Bounty Co developed a detailed set of brand guidelines for YKBK. These guidelines included rules for logo usage, typography, colour schemes, and tone of voice. The vibrant green and navy colour scheme, combined with energetic imagery, ensured that every touchpoint—from merchandise to social media to event signage—would convey a high-impact, action-packed experience for YKBK’s target audience. - Vibrant Colour Palette: Bold and Impactful
The chosen colours—a striking Nike-style green paired with deep navy—are designed to evoke both energy and professionalism. The neon green grabs attention and signals the league’s high-energy, fast-paced action, while the deep navy grounds the brand, giving it a sense of stability and strength. This contrast creates a modern, bold aesthetic that stands out in both digital and physical environments. - Market Positioning & Storytelling: Creating an Authentic League Experience
Bounty Co worked with YKBK to craft a compelling brand story that speaks directly to its youthful, sports-driven audience. The narrative emphasizes the league’s commitment to fast, exciting play and community engagement, positioning YKBK as a fresh alternative to traditional basketball formats. The messaging highlights the accessibility of 3x3 basketball, aiming to make the sport more relatable and engaging for both players and fans.
The Results: A Bold New Identity for YKBK
YKBK’s new brand identity has positioned the league as a modern, exciting, and community-focused platform for basketball enthusiasts. The vibrant colours, dynamic logo, and engaging brand narrative have made an immediate impact on players, fans, and event sponsors, helping YKBK stand out in a competitive sports environment.
With their bold new look, YKBK has created a buzz among youth basketball players and sports fans, becoming a recognizable and energetic force in the world of street basketball. The updated branding has
not only elevated the league’s credibility but also reinforced its core values of competition, excitement, and inclusivity.
