  • Inline Hockey New Zealand – Branding
    Inline Hockey New Zealand – Branding Inline Hockey New Zealand © Working-concepts are copyright Cluster Creative Ltd Inline Hockey New Zealand – Branding Brand Perception Current logo Inline Hockey is like ice hockey but is played on roller blades. Inline Hockey is seen as an alternative sport. It has small numbers in NZ. This should not be seen as negative, but as a unique positioning because this could make it desirable to individuals who would like to express themselves in a creative way. It is a fringe sport which is edgy. The edge comes from the use of roller blades which give it a hint of ‘skate culture’ and provides a rush of adrenalin. It also needs to be seen as a ‘real’ sport. The brand needs to be regarded as official and as having a NZ team. However, the curent branding gives the opposite impression. This needs to be changed. Audience The sport needs to grow. Work-on-the-ground has been done to address this but the brand is lacking. The primary audience must be the kids, yet also tick the boxes for parents. The target audience is: Kids who: - have tried roller blading (or who may be attracted to it) - have not ‘connected’ with mainstream sport - see the sport is cool - see that the sport has heroes (market the star players?) - see it has future for them. Parents who: - are open to alternatives - want their child to fair go (smaller sport means more inclusive feel?) - want a supportive community Inline Hockey New Zealand © Working-concepts are copyright Cluster Creative Ltd Demographics Cities - have good facilities but market reach is hard due to competition Rural - easier to market to by word of mouth Schools - a captive audience, but must be introduced in a cool way not a school way Media - some inline hockey mention in print and radio, ice hockey (parent-sport) gets some mainstream coverage Web - has a website, FB page, but no active campaigning using Google Analytics or tracking.
