About the Design:
Canadian artist Greg Banning has created an energizing design of a female soccer player "heading" a ball. She grimaces on impact, a clear indication of the skill required for a perfect execution. The maple leaf in the background salutes Canada as host country for FIFA Women's World Cup 2015TM/MC, and is bursting with pride and great expectations for Team Canada-as the team experiences every athlete's dream of playing (and hopefully winning!) before a home crowd.
