As a Graphic Designer at Tricon, I’ve had the unique opportunity to support the Genuine Cup as a leader in Creative Direction / Design for both the 25′ & 26′ Cup.
The Genuine Cup is an international soccer tournament celebrating athletes with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Tricon is not only a proud sponsor of the event; our CEO is also one of the founding visionaries behind the Genuine Cup.
In 2026, the tournament is expanding significantly, growing from 30 to over 54 global teams. To support this exciting evolution, I’ve been actively involved in refreshing and expanding the event’s brand identity system. My contributions include social media, event graphics, custom invitations, print collateral, and other creative assets that help tell the Genuine Cup’s story with clarity, warmth, and impact.

Website
Alongside the 2026 Genuine Cup, the organization needed a refreshed website to better communicate its mission and showcase the tournament. Within two months of joining, I led the design and development of a new site that strengthened the brand’s digital presence and created a clearer platform to tell the story of the Genuine Cup.
