5 Fantasy Football Trophy Ideas to Award Your Winner
With 75 million people around the world now playing fantasy football, it's likely that your team is jam-packed with people who are looking for friendly competition. Along with the prize money, lots of people like to take something else home with them. If you're looking for fantasy football trophy ideas, start thinking about how your league interacts and what the topics of conversation are.
Here are 4 fantasy football ideas you should consider giving out this year.
1. A Funny Plaque
A funny plaque that can be passed around every year is a great way to commemorate a completed season. Put a message on it and send the same plaque around at the completion of every season. Get a longer plaque and you can add several nameplates tracking the history of winners as each season passes.
You can make one for the worst performing players and a different one for the winners.
Keep it lighthearted and people will be proud to have their name on the plaque, win or lose.
2. Helmet Trophy
If you want to make your trophy themed, you could get one that has a football or a helmet on it. A helmet trophy attracts people to it and will become a conversation piece sitting on your shelf. You can talk about your fantasy team planning prowess proudly with your helmet trophy taking up space to prove it.
You can get really wild and make a helmet into a trophy. Or else, you can keep it simple and buy a trophy that has a helmet on it.
Either way, the theme will be clear to anyone who sees it and will show off your deep knowledge and dedication to the game.
3. Inside Joke Trophy
Since most fantasy football teams interact with one another online, inside jokes build up over time. It's hard to keep these jokes going if you don't have a way to highlight them.
You can make your joke part of your trophy. If you're on the dirtier side, you could even get a toilet-shaped trophy to drive home your commitment to jokes.
4. Something For The Losers
Even though you want to give your winners something to bring home with them, passing on something to your losers can be fun. Because you rely on everyone's participation to make the season happen, give them something to commemorate their participation.
Thankfully there are trophies made especially for losers. Our turkey trophies are great for league coordinators who want to recognize everyone who didn't make it to the top this year. It's a small way of saying "thanks" even for the worst fantasy team managers among us.
Fantasy Football Trophy Ideas Can Be Unique
Your fantasy football trophy should feel unique to your league. It should speak to the kinds of players you are and what you chat about when you're not talking about trades. Make something that feels coveted and you'll rally excitement around the prospect of winning.
