St. Stephen Sentinels Logo Design

Create Professional Vector Logo for St. Stephen Sentinels
We are looking for a talented sports logo designer to professionally develop a new St. Stephen Sentinels logo.
We already have a concept design (shield with the S) that our group likes and will provide it as references. We want the designer to combine the strongest ideas, improve the artwork, and create an original professional vector logo, rather than simply tracing the concepts.
The design should feature:
St. Stephen
Sentinels
1893
Sentinel/warrior imagery
Shield/crest or strong collegiate shape
Forest green, black and white
Optional subtle maple leaf/Canadian element
Bold varsity/collegiate typography
The logo needs to work for school athletics, uniforms, apparel, signage, merchandise, social media, and other school applications.
We value clean geometry, strong typography, good readability, and a logo that still looks excellent when reproduced in one colour.
Deliverables: AI/EPS, SVG, vector PDF, transparent PNG, full-colour and one-colour versions, plus ideally a simplified secondary mark.

There is a second concept that was liked but felt we wanted to move away from the warrior look being the focal point. Will provide reference for additional details.

Please provide examples of previous sports/mascot/athletic branding work.
Important: We want a designer to professionally redraw and develop the artwork. We are not looking for an automated vector trace or an AI-generated final product.
