I big gawdy trophy doesn't make the achievement any greater, the things are all cheap and mass produced anyway. If you want to give one to a sponsor, you can likely have one made for 20$ (just making up figures) that they could put on display and put their name on it to boot, or you could give one you have for a desk ornament.

These could be better, but I much prefer them to the generic trophy style that all sports seem to give out.

Take a search and you'll see the other awards that they hand out are nothing like any other sport. The search feature is a really nice thing to have if used properly.
