As a child I was never really into sports and to this day, that still has not changed. When first approaching this project I was considering all of the sports of my childhood that I had scorned. It took me a while to figure it out, but badminton was always the sport that I struggled with. I couldn't get that birdie to lift off, glide, or fly....which then became the concept of my t-shirt design.

Original demotivational sports design put into context.

Alternative design featuring a wiffle ball hugging a waffle. Again as a child, I never called this ball by the right name (mostly 'cause I never cared enough to do so). The name "waffle ball" kinda just stuck with me.
