According to official reports from Henan Football Club, from 1994 to 2024, Henan Football Club has gone through 30 years of trials and tribulations. In the spirit of inheriting and respecting club culture, loving and respecting three million fans, and spreading and promoting Henan culture and spirit, we have upgraded our club mascot.
As early as 1997, Henan Football Club used the “elephant” as its image symbol and designed the first generation mascot, which has been in use ever since. The elephant has become the club’s cultural gene symbol and image symbol.
The qualities embodied in the “elephant” – “strong yet wise, tenacious yet fearless, confident yet battle-ready” – are also the epitome of the spirit of Henan Football Club.
At the same time, the “elephant” is the most culturally significant image symbol of Henan. According to archaeological research, the ancient Central Plains was once a breeding ground for elephants. The “elephant” is the most vivid image symbol of Henan.
Therefore, we used the image of the “elephant” as our design prototype, combined with the mission and spiritual beliefs of Henan Football Club in the new era, and integrated cultural elements of the Central Plains civilization to upgrade the creation of the mascots for Henan Football Club and its youth training teams.
