Modern Basketball Program Cover

I need a striking front cover for this year’s high-school basketball program. The look should lean modern—clean lines, bold type, and a sense of movement that feels fresh rather than traditional yearbook-style.

Two visual anchors are non-negotiable: our official school logo (supplied as an EPS) and clear basketball-themed graphics. I’m not using a team photo on the cover, so the layout should let the logo shine while the basketball imagery adds energy without clutter.

Colour work must stick to our school palette; I’ll provide the exact Pantone / HEX values. Think of ways to make those colours pop, whether through contrasting backgrounds, subtle gradients, or creative negative space.

Deliverables I’m expecting:
• Print-ready PDF with 0.125" bleed, CMYK
• Editable layered file (AI or PSD) so we can tweak season details next year
• A flattened high-res JPEG for quick digital previews

I’ll supply copy for the season slogan and the required sponsor bar once we agree on the layout, so leave room for those. If you’re comfortable working fast—ideally a first proof within three days—let’s talk so we can have this cover ready before media day.
