Sports World: background and attribution
Sergiy S. Tkachenko’s Sports World is distributed through his credited font listing. The directory records it there from February 2012 and classifies it as old-school lettering. That listing date is useful catalog context, not proof of an earlier team or institution’s use.
Read the publisher’s family page for the source account and the edition currently offered. Keep a family name distinct from its particular release, width or optical branch.
Forms, styles and what to inspect
The listed Regular resource has an extensive displayed glyph inventory. Check the actual supplied characters for your team name, numbers and punctuation. A sports-oriented family name does not itself make the lettering an official league or club identity.
Use the original publisher specimen to inspect those features. An alternative can share a broad role without having the same letter shapes, metrics or character coverage.
Try it in a real layout
Compare a short team name and a two-digit player number at the intended print size. Inspect enclosed spaces when planning embroidery or a small badge. Use clearer supporting text for match dates and venue information.
For independent comparisons, try Graduate and Alfa Slab One. Use the same wording and approximate output size. The related style guide provides broader design context.
