Hero Sections
Five production-ready hero layouts built from CPSL design tokens. Each accepts a photo or video background — swap the gradient placeholder for an <img> or <video> tag.
1 — Cinematic Gradient
Full-bleed background with a directional gradient mask keeping text readable. Live match ticker anchored to the bottom. Best for homepage and season-launch moments.
CAROLINA
PREMIER
SOCCER LEAGUE
The premier youth soccer league in the Carolinas. Follow every match, every moment, every season.
2 — Split Frame
Dark navy content panel left, diagonal-clipped action photo right. Match preview layout. Works equally well as a player spotlight or venue feature.
CHARLOTTE
vs RALEIGH
ATHLETIC
3 — Glass Card on Dark
Frosted glass card floats over a full-bleed dark stadium background. Minimal, focused, and ideal for live match moments. The backdrop-filter: blur reads best over a real photo.
4 — Magazine Overlap
Editorial magazine grid — huge Barlow Condensed headline bleeds over the right-hand photo panel. Great for league launches, player features, and season recaps.

5 — Full Width Image + Headline
Image-first hero — the photo takes full command, headline anchored bottom-left over a gradient scrim. Nothing else. Let the image do the work.

PREMIER LEAGUE
6 — Section Header
Compact module-level header — sits above data-heavy sections like Standings, Schedule, or Club Directory. Large Barlow Condensed title with an optional gold badge and muted subtitle. Gold accent bar anchors bottom-left. Dark and light variants.
