We’re smack-bang in the middle of the US basketball season. For this reason, the chances are you already have all of the equipment required to play the game. But what about custom basketball trophies, plaques, and other awards you may be planning to award in the New Year before the season comes to an end?
If your club participates in team competitions, there may already be floating trophies doing the rounds. If you host competitions, you might want shields, cups, or plaques to award to the winning teams. Medals and ribbons are great for individual team members; and certificates are another cool way of rewarding club members for their achievements, or even simply for participation in basketball games and events.
How to Choose Custom Basketball Trophies and Awards
Basketball trophies come in so many different guises it can be difficult to decide which types to choose. More often than not club officials will base their decisions on two primary factors:
- Budget
- Level of competition
Trophies, including cups, are made from a huge range of different materials, from metal and metal-plated items to custom crystal, plastic, and even resin. Medals, which may be engraved with players’ names (or just the name of the event), are also available in different forms. These are commonly strung on ribbons that are printed with the name of the event, and/or sponsors names to remind players when and where they received the award.
