Omaha Royals Change Team Colors

OMAHA – The Omaha Royals are changing their team colors from blue and yellow to blue and red. The change will be noticed both in the club’s logo and uniforms for the 2005 season.

The team’s logo will remain a bat across an “O” with “Royals” across the middle of the “O” and “Omaha” above the “O”. The “O” will now be in red, instead of yellow, with “Royals” and “Omaha” still in blue.

“The Omaha Royals’ logo created three years ago has been well received and easily recognized, based on fan feedback and surveys,” said Royals Senior Vice President/General Manager Doug Stewart. “The change to the secondary color from yellow to red will create more of a vibrant look overall, yet the recognizable logo will stay the same,” Stewart said.

The Royals would also appreciate the public’s input in selecting a new slogan to accompany the new look. Fans may choose from “Your Heartland Team”, “Get to the Show”, or “Best Catch in Town” or make their own suggestion.

Fans may vote on-line at www.oroyals.com or submit their choice by mail to: Omaha Royals, c/o Slogan Voting, 1202 Bert Murphy Ave., Omaha, NE 68107.
