Southampton’s crest was designed by a fan following a competition and displays multiple parts: the halo representing the nickname ‘Saints’; the ball in relation to the nature of the club; the scarf symbolising the fans and team colours; the tree signifying the nearby New Forest and Southampton Common; the water representing the city’s connections with the rivers, seas and oceans; and a white rose characterising the city.
