The rebrand aimed to reposition Simply Bowls as an open, energetic, and welcoming community rather than a conventional lawn bowls club. To express this shift, the identity was built around three original mascots — Jacko, Bowlson, and Rinko — which act as the approachable and expressive face of the brand. The characters were designed with dynamic forms and a vibrant colour palette to convey movement, friendliness, and vitality. This mascot-led system allows the brand to communicate its diverse activities — from lawn bowls to fitness and social programmes — while maintaining a consistent and engaging visual language across touchpoints.
