Meaning and History
Over the years the Academy has existed, the sports organization has changed five logos. The oldest was quite complicated. It is the emblem of a higher educational institution, which was used as an emblem. It depicts two parts of the flag with a golden helmet in the middle. Upstairs is an eagle with spread wings, arrows, a long red ribbon with a motto, laurel and oak branches.
In 1974, he was replaced by a simplified version with the letter “A,” Instead of the central crossbar, a horse was painted. In 2000, another logo appeared – with a knight galloping on a horse. In this version, it lasted until 2006, until a new model was approved. On it is a knight in armor, covering the letter “A” with a pointed upper notch with a sword. The current emblem repeats a fragment of the debut symbolism and is a golden beige helmet.
