Our Brand values, more than a logo

Duluth Soccer is much more than a distinctive mark and color palette. The brand is the personality of Duluth Soccer and it guides everything we do.

Our brand values are an intrinsic part of Duluth Soccer, and they play a crucial role in influencing our behaviors, our communications, and wider brand success.

Five values that guide our behavior are:dynamicWe are energetic, confident, and focused on the challenge before us. We also plan for the future and focus on continuous improvement. We push the boundaries.

fairWe represent Duluth High School, and we pride ourselves on honesty and fairness. Although we love to win, we emphasize development over the result. We are good sports, even in the face of intense competition.

passionateWe are constantly learning and are passionate about life and the game of soccer. We treat everyone asindividuals.

competitiveWe are brave. We are creative and dare to do things differently, to find a better way. We enjoy working hard, playing hard, and succeeding together. We love to win, but if that is not the final result… we take pride in being a fierce competitor until the final whistle.

teamworkWe come from many backgrounds, but we are a team united… We value unity, and we help each other succeed on and off the field. We constantly consider how can we can help a teammate, making decisions and taking action with that in mind.
