Our Champions

Tackling climate change & protecting coral reefs

life on the high tees

At Reef Check Australia, we firmly believe that the cool t-shirt maketh the man. Or at least that great T-shirt designs can change the world!

We're about to launch a new online sea store and premium membership and we want to kick off with a super-seller: an iconic Reef Check Australia t-shirt that everyone wants to wear!

This month, we're running a competition to find that world-changing design. So get out your crayons, or your graphic design package of choice, and send us your representation of "ready to wear RCA".

Essentials

The winning design will include either the RCA bannerfish logo (or a representation thereof) and the words "Reef Check Australia 2011" (we will be updating our design every year). Otherwise, there are no restrictions to your creativity. Flouro, monochrome, rainbow, illustration, fine-art, typography - anything goes.

Climate change - it's so hot right now

There are opportunities for witty T-shirt slogans abound with this subject. The cleverer you can be, the more chance of you winning! If it makes us snigger, it must be good!

Inspiration

See our latest Community Service Announcement for our current campaign on climate change and coral: Keeping corals cool.

Look through our photo galleries for some iconic images of coral reefs and their inhabitants.

Prize

All designs submitted will be placed on a dedicated website gallery - so you'll be famous just for entering! The winning design will be produced in t-shirt form by Reef Check Australia and you'll be promoted as the winning designer. We'll print you a few t-shirts for you and a couple of friends and the t-shirts will be sold in our sea store and given out to our premium members.
