Superband singer, Awi, wins our design competition “Sports on Wheels”!

Not only can he dance, can he sing, this guy can really draw! With a whimsical concept of bringing out the community connectivity in our Sports on Wheels programme, Ashleynawi (better known as Awi), one of the singers in SOUL, caught our eyes with his arresting design overflowing with traffic-stopping colours.

The created logo for the design competition was a playful take on the letter ‘e’ in wheels. Simple yet easily recognizable, the logotype delivers an image of a person on a wheelchair, and also symbolises how the Sports on Wheels programme can connect to the community through its unique outreach on wheels.

Purple was chosen to capture attention when the vans go out on the streets, and also to make the programme stand out as a highly identifiable initiative. We wanted to make sure that when the Sports on Wheels van goes out to the schools or community, the students and residents would be able to take one look to know that a thrilling sports experience awaits them. With electrifying colours like this, we are pretty sure you can’t miss us!

Not only that, Awi also gave us some ideas on what we could give to the kids and community as we approach them with the Sports on Wheels programme, like button badges and tee-shirts. His thoroughness in his design also won him several points during the selection.

We congratulate Awi on winning a HP Pavilion desktop computer, with a 19” LCD monitor from Hewlett Packard Singapore with his creative design. SDSC will continue to work with Awi to develop the design further, before the official launch of the programme.

We would also like to thank all the participants of the competition who have put in their heart into the heartwarming and unique designs we’ve seen in our selection. We hope that you will continue to support SDSC’s community initiatives and help us to bring more sporting opportunities to people with disabilities in whatever ways you can in future.

For those who would like to come on board as a pioneer of SDSC’s volunteer design circle, drop us a note at with a sample of your design. You can find out more about this first design circle which SDSC is establishing here.

This competition is made possible with the kind donation and generous support from Hewlett Packard Singapore.
