Step 1

Open the FreeIconMaker.com editor. Select Sports from the Category drop-down menu. Pick the sport icons you like or upload your own in SVG format.

Step 2

Now we can start to customise our icon set! Pick a background from the right side of the editor and experiment with different styles. Once you’re done you can change the color of both background and shape. You can use ready-to-use gradients by clicking the random button. I used the following solid colors:

1. for the background: #fc543f
2. for the shape: #ffffff

Another great thing about this editor is that you can apply shadow effects to polish and give more depth to your icons, but since we are creating flat icons we will just use the gloss effect.
