Commonwealth Games
Designed for the livery of the Scottish Team for the Commonwealth Games and first used for the Games in Melbourne, Australia 2006.
The Commonwealth Games were the brainchild of Bobby Robinson and were first held in Canada in 1930. The name Robinson is associated with the Clan Gunn and therfore the Gunn tartan was used for the base of the design.
Colours: the mid blue colour with the white line through it closely represents the saltire and the bright purple colour was introduced as the colour of the thistle, which features on the Scottish Commonwealth Games Council logo.
