Uniforms and logos[edit]
The team's colors are light blue, black and yellow.
Home jerseys will feature the main Fighting Falcons logo with an alternate Falcon Head logo appearing on the road jerseys.
Shoulder patches on both home and away uniforms will feature a cicular logo with the Blue Water Bridge, that spans the St. Clair River separating Port Huron, Michigan and Sarnia, Ontario, Canada.[4]
Original Logo Controversy[edit]
Released on July 10, 2010, the Fighting Falcons first logo had a strong resemblance to a logo created by Mike Ivall of Ivall Design.[5]
On July 15, 2010, the Fighting Falcons announced the team will create new logo to avoid any problems relating to any similarities with Mike Ivall's concept art after Ivall had contacted the team and noted similarities.[6]
