OpportunitiesThe interactive hotsite “Calendário Tricolor” is a amazing
piece and the user always have a good time on it. At first
while you are on the loading page, you have a mini
kick-ups game so you have a nice waiting time. The hotsite
is a calendar and everydate you chose you see events that
happened that specific day, famous players birthdays and
much more.
WeaknessThe simple look of the site also make it look
unprofessional. The layout is strange and have a lot of
blank spaces. The Video section is just a page with one
embed Youtube video. It seems very outdated and don’t
take many advantages of the recent technology. In
general the site is not worth for one of the best brazilian
teams.
StrengthsThe layout is quite simple and there is a really detailed
horizontal menu making the navigation easy. The ads
are small and don’t distracts you from the main content.
On the home page there are illustrated buttons for the
most visited pages on the site. The calendar with the
monthly events on the homepage is a great idea and
very practical too. When you enter the site you get a
splash screen telling abou the new interactive hotsite.
On game’s day there is an option to read live stats and
comments about the game .

WeaknessThe team history section is basically about plain text
and don’t engage the audience. The other sports that
the club has also lacks visuals and there isn’t a good
aproach regarding becoming an associate.
StrengthsThe site has a beautiful layout, everything is really well
layouted, the ads are not agressive and the news have a
great spot with changing images right on your eyesight.
All the design choices are good and everything your
look for is easy to be found. There is a Interactive
section where the team supporters can interact with
each other and share experiences regarding the team.

OpportunitiesThere’s an section where anyone can create a public
profile and shows that he is an fan and tell everyone
about their passion, stories, game matches and
everything. It’s a great way to make the user feel that he
is part of the team and be proud of it.

WeaknessThe main concern on this site is about the advertising.
There is a huge advertisement in just below the menu
that makes all the content go down. Also, a small ad on
the top leave a blank area above the header making the
layout look really awkward. Everywhere you look the
ads catches more attention than the content.
StrengthsAs soon as you enter the site you can tell you are on
the right site as it make a great use of green hues (the
team main color). Below the navigation menu there’s
a featured section with scrolling messages. It’s also
possible to change the site language although that site
will be a di!erent and old-fashioned version of it.

OpportunitiesOn the site’s sidebar there is an gallery with great pictures
showing all the team players. Also on the sidebar, you
can see the current tournament standings with the team
highlighted and a featured videos with a mini player on it.

WeaknessThe footer is too simple and just has the sponsors’ logo.
The homepage font size is very small making the news
di"cult to ve read in computers with higher resolutions.
StrengthsThe visuals here is the main strength. The site is really
elegant and communicates very well. In the middle you
find a great way to show the team members in a gallery.
The team history has a special hotsite with an old look
to reflect the team’s one hundred year. The ads are very
discreet and blends with the site design.

OpportunitiesA great idea on this site is a interactive hotsite for
children, where they can play games, activities,
download stu! for the computer and much more.
This is good way to make the relationship between the
children stronger, increasing the passion for the team
since the beginning.

StrengthsThe strongest thing about this site is the option to
choose among 8 di!erent languages and almost all of
them have the same look. The layout is well done and
very easy to understand. Milan’s website has a section
called Webtv that starts right over when you enter the
site. It is a nicely produced movie mith motions e!ects
that tells some of the news about the team.
WeaknessBrowsing between the several language options located
on the splash page, there is a confusing fact. There are
two links, one with the USA flag and another with the
England flag. When the user clicks the north american
flag, he is redirected to the online store section, and
when clicking on the England flag, the user is redirected
to an english version of the main page. This duplication
can confuse the user and having just one flag
representing the english language and a clear banner
for the american store, would work better.

StrengthsThe website is well structured and have all sections
organized. basic content such as ticket buying features,
history, shop and news are featured on the main page.
there is also a calendar located on the main page,
where important dates are highlighted such as team
matches and player birthdays. There is also a search
tool and specific place where the most searched tags
on the website can be found.
WeaknessWhen accessing the webpage for the first time, a
splash page appears showing advertisements, besides
the button to enter the website is really small and
hard to see for the first time. Some times the splash
page doesn’t appear, however it must be really an
inconvenience for the fan who wants to get straight to
sport related content.

OpportunitiesThe shopping section of the website is really interesting,
it opens in a new tab on the web browser separating the
content from the rest of the website. The web site has a
variety of merchandise related to the team, and the user
can buy using credit card through the online system built
for checking out.
WeaknessThe team has an youtube channel containing videos
related to them, but very few are found on the
website and there is no specific pages for videos also.
There are no interactive content besides links to the
team’s facebook page or twitter page. the site is not
much engaging, and doesn’t shows creative ways to
communicate with fans. There is no rewards or games
users can play.
StrengthsThe major strenghts of the webpage is the simple layout
making it easier to find important information. News,
and background history of the team are also featured,
The visual identity of the website is based on the team’s
logo which conveys a marine blue color for the
background making it easier to read the letters in white
and vice-versa. There is a built-in section for buying
tickets and merchandise facilitating users who wants
to see the next game live or buying a jersey of his team.

WeaknessBesides being a very complete website, there is a lot of
unnecessary information, advertisements and banners
that can confuse the visitor. The title of the site gives
to much weight for the word “Fire“ while the subtitle
saying it is a soccer team is almost invisible. There is no
interactive games or something similar.
StrengthsThe website is very complete, and features a lot of
information regarding the team as well as events,
schedules for next games and additional news. The
color scheme for the website doesn’t a!ect the
legibility and is based on the colors of the team’s
emblem. There is a specific section for videos and
interviews made with team players as well as previews
of future matches. If the visitor wants he can buy tickets
online and acess the online store from the website also.
An option for spanish language is featured as well.
OpportunitiesOne of the sections of the website features community
news and projects which the team foundation and
team players are involved with local schools, donations,
sustainability and local people revealing a humanitarian
side of the brand and foundation, in a good way to
promote the team as well as the sport.

WeaknessThe main website page repeats three times the news
for team’s updates not featuring other important
information, the middle section has an “scroll“ hability
by clicking on the arrows in each corner, however it’s
quite di"cult to notice this feature in the first minutes
browsing the site. There is an option which the visitor
can see live webcams of the stadium, however it takes
to long to load and sometimes it doesn’t work.
StrengthsThe legibility of the website is really good, making
good use of contrast between dark blue and white
colors similar to Vancouver Whitecaps’s website. The
interactivity between the site and visitors is highlited
showing big facebook and twitter icons on the main
page. Essential menus also appear in the website such
as news, schedules for next games and a link to buy
tickets and to buy team’s merchandise.

website is a nice interactive piece and works to make
visitors interested in the days where the team is playing.
Options include a interior and exterior view of the
stadium where the visitor can zoom in with the mouse
to see details. There is an option to click right down the
video to buy tickets for the game.

OpportunitiesA really interesting feature on the website is the Jersey
design contest, where users can participate and share
ideas about a new design for the 2012 Supporters kit
for the team. This helps to promote the team and also
works as an e!ective interactive tool.
WeaknessThe first complaint about the website is the amount
of time to load. Even refreshing three times the
loading time wasn’t better, it’s also noticeble kerning
problems in some of the frames where some texts
are not contained in the area that they should be. The
top menu has a bad font for legibility and the options
highlited in red used a really strong color tone that is
too bright.
StrengthsThe web page has a similar structure from the Kansas
Wizards’s website, however the information is better
distributed between the frames, highlighting other
features such as a Pool which visitor can vote and
interact. The Brand follow a similar structure from
other sports websites using colors which represents the
team’s emblem. The essential menus are also included
such as ticket buying, and shopping

WeaknessDue to the amount of content featured on the website,
it takes a long time to load completely. There is also a
considerable amount of advertisements on the main
page and sub menus. Besides the fact the content is
well organized, the massive amount of content can
leave the visitor with a sensation the website is too
“heavy”.
StrengthsVisually, the website is really engaging, the colors
applied in the interface were well combined using the
colors of the team’s emblem. The typography for the
headlines and menus were also well used. There is a
distinct separation between menu items, and it’s sub
categories. All Essential options are included such as
ticket buying and an online shop. There is also an
option available for Spanish language.

OpportunitiesThe multimedia section of the website is really
compelling, the ability to make content available to
users such as wallpapers and icons is a good way to
engage fans with the team.
WeaknessThe structure of the main page looks not balanced , a
black color without any information at all predominates
on the right area of the site (The space could be used
to include relevant information). It is also important to
state a lack of typographical identity on the website
containing a mixture of di!erent fonts.
StrengthsThe website shows information in an organized way
making the use of frames. The majority of important
information is located on the top menu. There is a
built-in twitter and facebook page on the index page,
which also features a login field for ticket seasons and
a search engine to find news and player names. It is also
included a multimedia page where fans can find music,
videos images, among other features..

WeaknessThe weak point of Uniqlo design for a sports brand is it’s
minimalistic and multi-color designs. which could not
fit well into the sports category,
StrengthsUniqlo’s website features a lot of interactive content
one of the most famous applications include the uniqlo
calendar which shows date and time with music and
tilt shift videos giving a nice feel to the viewer, another
recently released application is the UT Loop, where
the user can mix voice tones creating and sharing
own tunes composed with voices. Those interactive
applications are really creative and inspiring.

OpportunitiesEmphasizing the qualities of the website, we can find
a really clean and nice way to show content, which
could be applied to a video section on a soccer website,
displaying information right to the video saying what
the video is about and additional information to it.
WeaknessThe website has a really characteristic visual expression
that can not be applied to a sports website, the color
pallete of the web site is darker compared to the
majority of sports websites. The logo for the site is not
well defined as well.
StrengthsThe portfolio pieces are shown in a really interactive
way. The sound design incorporated into the website
really contribute for a better user experience. The
information is organized in a creative yet methodical
way. Each section of the website has di!erent kinds
of animation making the pages really diverse and
innovative. The handicraft section has a very clean and
creative way of showing content.

WeaknessTo search the stickers on the page is really painful.
As the site is horizontal, you are supposed to scrol all
around to see the virtual stickers. The page is made in
flash so it lacks the sidescroll bar and don’t allow you
to use the keyboard’s arrows. So, you need to keep
clicking and draging till you find the sticker you want.
StrengthsThe main page has a nice intro and explains what the
project is about on a way that you get excited to start
as soon as possible. The quality of the images are really
great and being made by many artists around the world
it has a nice blend of styles working together with the
site’s layout.

WeaknessThis site works really well and is di"cult to find
weakness about it. One concern that we have is being
based on flash and having many hi res images, would
make it be slower on some machines.
StrengthsThe website for this strong brand has a very clean
and organized structure. It is successful applying a
minimalistic visual style related with sports, and does
a great job selling their products as well, being a good
reference for sports shop sections of a website. at first
there are very few products visible making the visitor
more curious to browse further on the catalog which
has appealing pictures and a great way to list products.
the entrance features sevral languages as well.
OpportunitiesEverything about the store site is worth the attention.
The layout is clean, so the focus is all about the
products. Each item has a preview with great zoom that
shows the details about it. The pictures are all in high
resolution and people can comment about the product
on its page.

Our target has a youth spirit , loves soccer and spend good times with his friends watching matches and playing
games. He really wants to be part of the team, and using data gathered by our competitive analysis we were able
to design a conceptual mock-up mixing two concepts: the customization used on Uniqlo’s interactive website and
the sports scene resulting in an idea which will make possible to the user to use his web camera to film his face and
apply in several soccer player templates, and even be able to share it with his friends on facebook!

Having as a basis our “I am part of the team and i am proud of it” concept, the idea of the interactive jersey was created, where each
fan signed to the website has a profile to play a game and can buy an exclusive jersey with a QR code. The website contains a
reward system which allows each fan to try his best to prove his/her love for the Dragons. Being thus , it is only necessary to scan
the QR code on the jersey to see the status of each fan with a jersey and even star challenges between fans . The jersey would only
be available on the online store of the website boosting the online sales.

teams in Vancouver. She isn’t a great fan of sports and doesn’t know exactly
where to start.
End Goal:Janet needs to find reliable soccer resources of canadian teams to gather visual
elements for the conception of a advertisement campaign for the new perfume
called “Goal”.
Experience Goal:Feel welcomed and familiar going through the sections of the site despite of his
unfamiliarity with it.
Tasks he will need to perform to meet his end goal:
How is she going to easily find the Razor Dragons website? How can she find historic background and reliable information at the website ? How can she find new ideas based on the visuals displayed on the website?
How can she have a good time doing her research despite her unfamiliarity with soccer?
How can the website provide a easy navigation for first time users?
The Story:Janet works for the Herman & Merman advertisement agency, they do several
campaigns for new released products and the organization of events and shows.
During the work time just after lunch, she received the task to conduct a research on
the internet to find references in soccer websites that can be helpful for the campaign
of the new perfume called “goal”. The brief came all of a sudden for her and she was
really surprised, because she doesn’t really like soccer, and the deadline to finish the
task was really short. When her boss left the room she started to look for canadian
soccer websites on Google. When she typed “Canadian soccer” on the search bar,
several websites appeared including the Razor Dragons website. She found the
description of the website really appealing and the voice tone used in the description
really called her attention. When she clicked on the link showed on Google she was
redirected to the Index page of the Razor Dragons’s website. Despite of the clear
sports look of the website, she noticed the information was really organized and the
visual style of the main page was really appealing, on the main menu located on the
top of the page she could find a section called “history and tradition” and got curious
to learn a little bit about the sport before she started doing her analysis. When she
clicked on it, a new page appeared with interesting animations on it talking about
Razor Dragons background and history and also some basics about soccer. After she
learned a little bit, she started exploring the website and clicked on the interactive
section where she found a cool app that she could use her webcam to take a picture
of her face and place on a Soccer player template, where she could say whatever
she wanted and share it on her Facebook, she also found that one of her friends
was listed as one of the application fans on Facebook in the same page. By seeing
this Janet felt really convinced to give it a try and give a better performance than
her friend. she soon turned her camera on and started to say the main quote for
the perfume’s campaign: “Goal will make you look like a winner!” when everybody
looked at her, and her boss entered the room. She soon hide the application and
said to her boss that the research was going perfect. Her boss walked away from the
room saying “Janet, please show me what you got in 2 hours” and she said “alright!”,
when he left Janet posted her customized webcam recording on Facebook, closed
the page , and started to write about the features she found interesting about the site
to show her boss.

The Story:Paul was so excited for the Razor Dragons match this weekend. On saturday he
went with his friends to the bar to watch the epic game of Razor Dragons against
Vancouver White Caps. He really had a good time watching the match while drinking
beer, and was also happy that Razors won by 2. All of his friends are part of the
Razor Dragons community and bought the interactive jersey on the online store
located on the main page of the website, after the match he took pictures of the
QR code located behind their jerseys. When he got home, he entered the main page
of the Razor Dragons website and noticed that all coverage about the recent game
was already updated a few hours after the game highlighted on the news area. On
the same page Paul logged in his Dragon fan profile, and saw notifications of new
comments on his page, then he clicked on the notifications and saw comments from
his friends about the match, after he replied the comments he uploaded pictures
he took of him and his friends at the bar on his profile. After that he reviewed his
personal status and found out that he has the highest score in quizzes regarding his
knowledge about the team compared to his friends and just got rewarded with an
exclusive wallpaper with the autograph of all players of the team in high resolution.
He soon got really excited, and commented the fact on his Facebook page, when all
of his friends asked him if he could send the picture for them. After that he got back
to the main page of the website and clicked on the online store icon located at the
top menu bar of the website. When he got there he took a look at the recently release
Razor Dragons Sports water bottle. When he checked out he received a message
“Congratulation! being a team player can make you spend a lot of energy! make sure
to use this great water bottle to kill your thirst and recover your energy! be sure to
keep the flames blazing!”. Now Paul is really excited waiting for his bottle to arrive
and continue playing soccer with his friends on Sundays.
