The document discusses branding and typologies of football clubs in Liga 1 Romania. It examines the key components of a sports brand, including history, values, symbols, and fan base. It then profiles each of the 14 clubs in Liga 1, analyzing their brand elements, history, strengths, weaknesses, and community. While the brands of some clubs are well defined, others struggle from a lack of updated online presence and marketing, and most Romanian clubs have yet to fully realize the business and marketing potential of their brands.
Sport is the real common denominator among people all over the world, beyond socio-economic and cultural differences. It is a strong power: Everyone is interested in sports.
The sports consumptions have enough socio-economic specificities to justify that the offer develops a marketing adapted to the sporting cultures. It is a market that continues to grow and it is normal that we wanted to see all these specificities.

Chapter 5: Creating Long-Term Loyalty Relationships
What is a brand that you purchase frequently and will go out of your way to find? What brand will you not only
shop around for but will also travel a distance to find? This practice means that you have created a
relationship with this brand; in the marketing world, this means that you have developed brand loyalty.
Kotler and Keller (2016) discuss customer value through the concept of customer perceived value (CPV),
which is defined as the difference between the customer’s perception of the product/service and the direct
and indirect competitors. A direct competitor is a company that provides the same products/services, while an
indirect competitor is one that provides products/services that do not necessarily provide the same
products/services but provide an alternative that the customer might choose if he or she did not purchase
your product/service. For instance, a direct competitor of Disney World might be Universal Studios, whereas

Kevin Plank, a former Fork Union Military Academy football player, established Under Armour in 1995 upon noticing that the cotton shirts of his football team at the University of Maryland were always soaked in sweat and noted better items for his team (Kraft, P., & Lee, J. W. 2009). He wanted to create shirts that were always cool even in the hottest of weather conditions. Plank went ahead and designed his prototype for his team, which attracted much attention from other collegiate teams. This prompted the expansion and growth of Under Amour products hence resulted in the opening up of its headquarters at Maryland-Baltimore. Nonetheless, despite its success, Under Amour continues facing stiff competition from similar sports retail brands. As a relatively new organization, Under Amour faces a high threat from competitors, yet it still has the opportunity to incorporate creative and innovative ideas (Kraft & Lee, 2009).
Five Environmental Forces
Environmental factors form part of a component of the PESTLE analysis tool, which gathers information regarding the firm’s circumstances. The environmental factors constitute usually impact various essential aspects of the business (Lam et al., 2019). A detailed description of how environmental factors affect Under Amour is outlined below.
Social factors
Under Amour is influenced by any alternations, whether positive or negative, in social factors in various circumstances. The management should examine the people's lifestyle in a given locality to determine whether they exercise regularly or not. This would determine if the company is viable to widen or restrict market share in the region.
Economic Factors
A business organization such as Under Amour is affected when significant trends in the economy might alleviate or hinder the organization attaining the set goals and objectives. The management must examine consumer behavior, interest rate adjustments, banking behavior, inflation, as well as overall economic indicators. When the economic factors are positive, the business growth would be significant as well.
Technological
Under Amour’s management should consider the changes brought about by the technology. It is because technology is changing the way of doing things in any organizational setting. Organizations that fail to embrace technology offer services and goods that are less competitive in the market hence low market share.
Competitive
Business growth and success are dependent on how organizations are capable of competing in the market.

Sports Sponsorship – A cost effective investment for your brandFuture Thinking
Sports fans are bombarded with brand messages and campaigns across all forms of media; from team, stadia and TV sponsorship to mobile, social media and online collateral. As a result, measuring, evaluating and predicting advertising and sponsorship campaign effectiveness to optimise your sponsorship portfolio has become increasingly complex. With so many investment opportunities to choose from, how do brands ensure their sponsorship portfolio enables them to reach the highest number of people within their target markets for the most cost effective investment? Earlier this year, SPA Future Thinking conducted an online study to find out where and how sports sponsorship deals are achieving cut through with fans.
Download our complimentary guide which highlights:
- Scale of return – the effectiveness of multiple sports sponsorship.
- Spontaneous brand association – who do fans really remember?
- Successful partnerships – opportunities for rights holders and brands.
- Evaluating sports sponsorships – how to successfully measure campaigns.
- Beyond sponsorship – understanding the wider role of research in sport.
Here at SPA Future Thinking we help a wide variety of companies; from sports brands, regulatory bodies, media agencies and broadcasters, to understand how to optimise the effectiveness of their sponsorship campaigns. Our range of solutions includes the launch of Campaign Optimiser 2.0 which identifies which platforms used have impacted most on campaign awareness, appeal and call to action.

Sports fans are bombarded with brand messages and campaigns across all forms of media; from team, stadia and TV sponsorship to mobile, social media and online collateral.

"Of course, you prefer to take players who are fully fit, but that's okay. We want to wait and be patient for some players even if they cannot play in those first matches," he told a press conference. The 37-year-old Vertonghen, Belgium’s Euro Cup 2024 most-capped international with 154 appearances, is struggling to shake off a groin injury.
"He will be there normally. This also applies to Youri Tielemans and Arthur Theate. The latter's position is very sensitive. We don't have many choices at left back. "It will only change if it turns out that they will only be available when, say, the final of the Euro 2024 Championship comes around. That's too long to wait. "However, I am confident that the injured boys are on track for the Euros.
Belgium vs Romania: Radu Dragusin Prepares for Crucial Role in Euro Cup Germany
Some of them have taken not one but two steps forward in their rehabilitation," he said. None of the injured players will feature in this week’s warm-up friendlies against Montenegro and Luxembourg. Romania centre-back Radu Dragusin found chances limited at Tottenham Hotspur in the second half of the 2023-24 season.
But is crucial to his country's cause at UEFA Euro 2024 where his aerial ability, physicality and hard graft make him a standout player. The 22-year-old moved to North London from Italian side Genoa in January but was kept on the sidelines by the form of another new arrival for the season, Mickey van de Ven, something Romania coach Edward Iordanescu admitted was a concern.
It will mean limited game-time going into the finals, but Dragusin, who cites Netherlands defender Virgil van Dijk as a role model, started every Euro Cup Germany qualifier as Romania went through the campaign unbeaten in their 10 games. He will be among their most important players in their first game in Germany against Ukraine in Munich on June 17, taking the right centre-back role in what is likely to be a back four.

Narrated Business Proposal for the Philadelphia Eaglescamrynascott12
Slide 1:
Welcome, and thank you for joining me today. We will explore a strategic proposal to enhance parking and traffic management at Lincoln Financial Field, aiming to improve the overall fan experience and operational efficiency. This comprehensive plan addresses existing challenges and leverages innovative solutions to create a smoother and more enjoyable experience for our fans.
Slide 2:
Picture this: It’s a crisp fall afternoon, driving towards Lincoln Financial Field. The atmosphere is electric—tailgaters grilling, fans in Eagles jerseys creating a sea of green and white. The air buzzes with camaraderie and anticipation. You park, join the throng, and make your way to your seat. The stadium roars as the Eagles take the field, sending chills down your spine. Each play is a thrilling dance of strategy and skill. This is what being an Eagles fan is all about—the joy, the pride, and the shared experience.
Slide 3:
But now, the day is marred by frustration. The excitement wanes as you struggle to find a parking spot. The congestion is overwhelming, and tempers flare. The delays mean you miss the pre-game excitement, the tailgate camaraderie, and even the opening kick-off. After the game, the joy of victory or the shared solace of defeat is overshadowed by the stress of navigating out of the parking lot. The gridlock, honking horns, and endless waiting drain the energy and joy from what should have been an unforgettable experience.
Our proposal aims to eliminate these frustrations, ensuring that from arrival to departure, your experience is extraordinary. Efficient parking and smooth traffic flow are key to maintaining the high spirits and excitement that make game days special.
Slide 4:
The Philadelphia Eagles are not just a premier NFL team; they are an integral part of the community, hosting games, concerts, and various events at Lincoln Financial Field. Our state-of-the-art stadium is designed to provide a world-class experience for every attendee. Whether it's the thrill of game day, the excitement of a live concert, or the camaraderie of community events, we pride ourselves on delivering a fan-first experience and maintaining operational excellence across all our activities. Our commitment to our fans and community is unwavering, and we continuously strive to enhance every aspect of their experience, ensuring they leave with unforgettable memories.
Slide 5:
Recent trends show an increasing demand for efficient event logistics. Our customer feedback has consistently highlighted frustrations with parking and traffic. Surveys indicate that a significant number of fans are dissatisfied with the current parking situation. Comparisons with other venues like Citizens Bank Park and Wells Fargo Center reveal that we lag in terms of parking efficiency and convenience. These insights underscore the urgent need for innovation to meet and exceed fan expectations.
Slide 6:
As we delve into the intricacies of our operations, one glaring issue emer
2. Brand Components (Esteve Calzada, 2013)
APPLICATION
STRATEGY
A brand is the set of expectations, memories, stories and relationships that, taken together, account for a consumer’s decision to choose one
product or service over another. (Seth Godin) It is the sum of the all tangible and intangible characteristics that individualize and differentiate a
product/ company and makes them unique in the market place.
What about a sports brand?
It is the complete set of images and associations held in the mind of the supporter.
2017 finds the Romanian football in a critical and alarming situation. Poor infrastructure, lack of transparency, minimum of investments or nothing
invested at all in the grassroots, financial impossibility, high number of litigations regarding the brands and the records of the clubs, are just a few of
the major factors that lead to this unacceptable situation. The risen that has been noticed in the press, as far as that goes in the statistics of the
litigations mentioned above, has a damaging impact on the football clubs involved in the process, leading to a lack of their identity and in the same
time affecting their brands, fact that allows multiple bad consequences and a debasement of the Romanian football .
The distincitve elements of a brand can be classified like this:
1. Iconography (badge, graphic elements)
2. Text (name & slogans)
3. Sound elements (songs & athems)
4. Informal elements (nicknames, mascots, celebrations, rituals)
(Esteve Calzada, 2013)
Understanding the importance of the
brand represents the key of the success
and for the clubs, no matter what is their
size, it is necessary to recognize the value.
The identity of a team’s brand or its personality is important for applying the management & marketing strategies successfully by taking into
consideration the position of the club and depending on the values they promote and how the fans perceive it. On most of the cases, a team is
recognised for its history, tradition, victories, tactics and fans behaviour.
History and positioning, results, commercial operations and management strategies create the intangible image of
a sports property. Day-to-day activities will also have a big impact on this image. Moreover, on-the-pitch
circumstances, the bad/ good results of the matches, the activities of the managers in their business and private lives,
are eloquent examples of situations that depending on their exposure in the media, may influence more or less this
intangible image (the brand). All these elements along with other characteristics like: records, number of winnings,
personality of a player/ coach/ sport director give personality to the team and make the brand to stand out.

1. Designing the iconography of the brand
2. Identifying new ideas and finding different elements in order to be adopted
3. Legal registration to avoid potential offenders
4. Delivering legitimacy of the brand- encouraging its use, especially by the whole team
members of the club
5. Using publicity to maximise the connotation of the brand
6. Protecting it by keeping an eye on its application (checking who has the right to use it and
how – sponsors, licenses, etc.) and suing those that use it illegally.

BRAND EQUITY
The majority of the international football clubs overlook the brand as an opportunity to maximise their revenues. Harnessing
your brand in the correct way can be hugely beneficial in terms of generating added revenue that can be invested into playing
staff or infrastructure.
When it comes to sell something intangible, branding is even harder. Because of this, most of the foreign teams use
sponsorships as a support, in this way, establishing through them a bigger fan base. By carefully selecting them, you can easily
target the right customer segment.
Also, the big stars of sports have a big impact on the brand image. For example, when Real Madrid signed Cristiano Ronaldo
from Manchester United, the club jumped up to no. 2 from no. 5 on the media brand list of advertisers.

Fan Based Brand Equity Framework – Keller (2001)
Brand Equity Pyramid created by Keller (2001)
represents the most realistic and modern framework
that shows the building process of the brand equity by
following a set of steps that should be applied and
coordinated by the management team of the clubs.
Thus, this department must have a clear vision and
understanding of the team salience and take into
consideration in their analysis the performance and
image of the team, the opinions of the fans and their
feelings regarding the club.
Not eventually, it must be evaluated the most
important characteristic - how the fans resonates with
the team – together with the CSR part (Corporate
Social Responsibility) and make it easier for their club
to leverage long-term loyalty with the supporters.
The very first step is to explore the reasons of the
team’s existence, followed by other decisive steps like
defining the identity of the team and its relation with
the fans. It must be mentioned that every single step is
complex and depends on the success of the previous
steps. The management sector should not jump to the
next step without defining the previous one.

This figure explains the a little bit more the framework
created in the previous one, offering a more detailed picture
and showing some of the consequences.
By understanding the reason why your club does exist, it may
be defined the hierarchy of intent. Thus, it is bringing in the
minds of the fans the category of the product, its logo, symbol,
name and possible nicknames. It will be considered the
easiness with which the fans recognise and identify the team, it
will be analysed its performance which depends not only on
the matches results but also on their reliability, consistency,
effectiveness and playing style. All of these contribute to
strengthening the brand loyalty and a growth in sales.
Then it will be analysed the market in order to target the
consumers correctly from a demographic (gender, race,
ethnicity, income, marital status) and psychographic (attitude
towards sports/ life, social issues, possessions, careers or
political interest) point of view and by not forgetting about the
mode of consumption of sports, fans personalities and their
values and finally the past history or performance of the team.
Moreover, it will be evaluated whether the team lives in the
mind or in the heart of the fans. The first ones tend to take
rational decisions and to appreciate the quality of the team,
the value of the players, the reliability of the team and its
superiority towards other teams. The other type of fans acts
impulsive but offer more emotions, warmth, joy, being
attracted by the fun found in the team, its social approval, self-
respect and patriotism.
Lastly, the top of the pyramid shows the existence or the lack
of strong psychological bond between the fans and the team.

10. Branding benefits (for organizations):
• Provides value to the company (clubs) - brand equity - is used to measure brand power on the
market; an increased equity of the brand generates intangible value to the firm, in terms of
sales and profit
• Ensures consumer (fan) loyalty - strong brands have positive effects on consumer perceptions
and preferences
• Apply a barrier to competition - it is difficult for new brands to compete with the strong and
positive perceptions owned by buyers on top brands
• Higher profits (eg improving the performance of merchandising and ticketing departments)
• Media exposure
Branding benefits (for consumers):
• Effective communication of features and benefits - at first instance - brands are a source of
product information. They communicate about the product and its benefits. Brand features
make it easier for consumers to identify their products
• Trust - Branding builds trust and reduces the risk of socially embarrassing situations

11. LIGA 1
The Professional League of Football (LPF) is a sporting structure of all the professional football clubs in
Romania which are competing in the first football echelon – evolving under the name of ‘LIGA 1’ since 1993.
The idea of establishing this federation is old and determined by the necessity of organizing the supreme
competition of football in any country, which is the national championship. Romania has made no exception to
this basic rule of international football and acted accordingly. At present, the competition is made up of only 14
teams.
• 1934/35 – the first championship with one group – 12 teams
• 1946/68 - period with year-to-year fluctuations – between 12 and 14 teams
• 1968/69 – 16 teams
• 19733/74 – 18 teams (constant number till 1999)
• 1999/2000 – 16 teams
• 2006/20015 – 18 teams
Since 2015, League 1 is made up of 14 teams, playing in the play - off and play - out system.

BRANDS AND TYPOLOGIES OF THE FOOTBALL CLUBS IN LIGA 1
13. This study’s focus is on finding the relevant characteristics of every single football club in Liga 1 and to see what kind of brand
they have. Even with a significant number of international academic literature about sport branding, it was hard to apply it
because Romania has a lack of information, documents and reports regarding this topic and its situation and there is so much
research to be done here as a fact that this subject wasn’t approach at a professional high level. Above all, this paper is based
on secondary data documented by academic international literature which highlights the importance of branding in sport and
sport articles, official websites of the football clubs and pages created by supporters which are critical in order to find the right
characteristics of the teams. All of these can help to create a big picture about the current situation and to figure out some of
the solutions.
The teams were analysed and compared with each other by checking and investigating all of their online official pages (13
websites, 14 Facebook pages, 11 Instagram accounts, 6 Twitter pages and 5 YouTube channels), 21 pages created by
supporters, 896 press articles (sport.ro, prosport.ro, gsp.ro) and mostly based on the study cases of Couvelaere & Ricehelieu
(2005). It was taken into consideration the quantity and quality of the available information about history, best/ worst results,
continuity, community, strengths and weaknesses. Moreover, it was tried to find out relevant symbols for each club, badges and
popularity.
For example, at very first sight, it is observed the presence of the football ball on 64% of the badges, for the rest of 36%
(Viitorul Constanța, Dinamo, Universitatea Craiova, Juventus București, FCSB) being missed. Other noted elements: stars (FCSB,
Dinamo, Concordia Chiajna, Astra Giurgiu), the year of establishment –for more than half of the clubs and the shield. If the
football ball determines what kind of sport is played by these clubs, distinguishing them from the others, the stars, a symbol of
masculinity, suggest brilliance, excellence, victory, the year of its foundation allows anchoring in history, and the shield conveys
the idea of a fighter spirit.
For most of the clubs, the analysis has been hampered by lack of information: outdated websites with little content. One of
the most relevant example is Sepsi OSK which does not even have a website and their Facebook page is predominantly written
in Hungarian.
Taking as an example the study by Couvelaere and Richelieu (2005), it was noted that when talking about Lille Olympique SC,
the world thinks of a spirit of fighter, solidarity and modernity, and in the case of Olympique Marseille, there is the emotional
warmth and sympathy. Thus, this model has been taken into account to help examine the characteristics of Liga1 clubs.

*It was considered the UEFA’s statement regarding the position of FCSB. Although FCSB has international prestige with notable results and is a national brand, it can not move on to the next level of international brand because it
has not expanded its marketing activities and did not enter the other countries market from the football point of view. Example: Real Madrid / Juventus / Manchester United - have broadcasted matches across Europe, Asia and
much of America, spread academies around the globe, and an international marketing campaign.

BRANDS AND TYPOLOGIES OF THE FOOTBALL CLUBS IN LIGA 1
October – November 2017
17. Fans are marketing on steroids. They talk, they promote, they lead by example. Additionally to this, branding in football
is an important business nowadays that although it is about money, it is driven by emotional experience, passion and
constant victories.
Following the analysis of the Liga1 clubs, it was found that if most fans do not agree with the leaders of the clubs,
considering that their actions reflect interest in business and disintegrate football itself, so clubs lose their identity and ,
while decreasing the number of supporters. Decisions leadership should be in line with fans' wishes because they are the
ones who "hold" the brand.
The majority of the international football clubs identify themselves with a representative stadium (home ground of the
team/ 2nd home for the supporters) and it used to be like this in Romania too but it’s changed now because of the
litigations and it is no longer possible to apply this on a lot of the clubs in Liga 1. The poor infrastructure can be noticed
from the bottom to the top and it causes damages to the level of the Romanian football: lack of training grounds for
children, amateurs and even professionals, pitches in bad conditions, all of these leading to a low desire in practicing this
sport in term of kids, thus having a lack of national youth talents and in conclusion awful results not only for the teams
clubs but for the national team too.
Moreover, it was also observed the lack of transparency of the club's actions, the lack of a strategy that involves both
what happens on the field and outside it, as well as the lack of knowledge of club fan clubs, which prevents them from
identifying with the club and at the same time increasing and attracting them in a bigger number.
Last but not least, the financial shortfalls faced by most clubs over the past few years have favored weak results, limiting
their evolution and exposure, both internally and externally.
