What is TrophySmack?

Oh hey, I didn’t see you there. I was just getting in some quality time with this trophy, which represents the single greatest achievement of my life. Just don’t repeat that to my family.

Think back on your fantasy football season and how you destroyed your opponent every week. Remember every painstaking roster move, each action the perfect gamble. That same level of pride applies to your kid’s softball team, your dad’s bowling league, and your company’s recognition awards. At TrophySmack, we bottle all of those amazing moments, distill them, and pour every ounce of their greatness into our trophies (and other epic recognition items).

Fantasy leagues, sports teams, and corporations across the country have been rocking that same tired trophy year after year… just like the one you got in 1989 for completing the local Karate-4-Kids class. You may have found yourself asking, “After all this time, why haven’t these lame trophies ever changed!?” 

We asked ourselves the same question in January of 2018 and that’s how TrophySmack was born. We’ve developed a collection of unique and customizable trophies, along with other innovative recognition items, made to represent hard-earned victories everywhere! 

Many of our trophies come with a custom plaque and swappable topper that the coach or commissioner can update each season, allowing the previous winner to hold onto those pieces and remember the year they were numero uno. Over time, they’ll never become boring, as our talented team of designers continually create new toppers. Between the swap tops, customizable plaques, anodized metal column colors, and 26” - 56” sizes, there are thousands of unique trophy combinations possible.  

Maybe your needs are far more simple and you just want a badass trophy cup fit for a king (or queen). We’ve got those. Blinged-out championship rings? Yep. Custom championship title belts? We’ve got unlimited styles and combinations of those too! 

Or maybe you don’t want a trophy at all. Feast your eyes on WallSmack… vibrantly colored wall art printed on sturdy stainless steel, with a wall-safe magnetic mount. Customize a one-of-a-kind piece or find the perfect representation of your win, created by one of our amazing in-house artists. So, go ahead… be the architect of your own awesomeness. Level up celebrating life’s greatest moments with TrophySmack today!

Do you offer trophies for occasions other than fantasy sports?

TrophySmack has a trophy for every occasion you can think of! Our new "Shop by Interest" feature lets you find the perfect trophy for any occasion!

We have fully customizable Championship Rings, Championship Title Belts (in 3 sizes), and our newest collection WallSmack (metal wall art) that can all be customized to celebrate even the most obscure kind of champions.

Do you offer hardware for baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer, and golf?

We are happy to announce the successful launch of our new "Shop by Interest" feature! Now you can easily find the perfect hardware for any occasion.

What's your return policy?

User errors made during the custom design process, such as misspellings, incorrect colors, incorrect logos or photos, etc. are non-refundable.

Customer modified products are not eligible for a refund.

We are able to correct these situations if the customer purchases a replacement piece.

Championship Belt Replacement Front and Side plates are available for purchase.

How do Swappable Trophy Toppers work?

TrophySmack Trophy Toppers can be swapped!

Our trophies are designed to represent your current Fantasy Champion. Instead of passing around the same tired trophy year after year, update it annually by choosing a custom-curated trophy topper and pairing it with a clever custom plaque! Our team of creative geniuses releases new Trophy Toppers throughout the year.

Trophy topper designs and corresponding plaques can be found here.

What’s with Trump and Jesus? What are your political and religious beliefs?

While polarizing politics and religions might be bad for mankind, they provide the perfect opportunity for humor and smack talk in the safe, contained environment of Fantasy Sports.

Engraving

How does Engraving Work?

FAQ image about engravings with various trophy designs and text

Our laser engraved plates have an adhesive backing, enabling easy and flexible placement on your trophy or belt. 

We use a special, super thin, acrylic material called "FlexiGold" and "FlexiSilver", to give the sleek appearance of brushed metal with a matte black finish.

Free engraved name plates included with our perpetual trophies are for current and past champions.  Future winner name plates are available for purchase.

How many engravings come with my purchase?

Free engraved name plates included with our perpetual trophies are for current and past champions.  Future winner name plates are available for purchase.

TrophySmack 26”-56” Perpetual Trophies can hold up to 19 years of winners on the front three surfaces, and a total of 48 nameplates when all five sides of the trophy base are utilized.

Our Square Base Perpetual Trophies hold up to 24 years of winners! The front side holds the custom engraved league plate and the three remaining sides can each hold 8 nameplates.  

Championship Belts hold up to 12 years of winner nameplates.

We auto-size the font to account for large names and team names. The character limit should not exceed 20 per line.

Championship Belts hold up to 12 years of winner nameplates.

We auto-size the font to account for large names and team names. The character limit should not exceed 20 per line, but we can get creative if needed (that’s a long name!)

Where do I place my engraving?

Engraved trophy image highlighting personalization options and designs

Our engravings have an adhesive backing and are cut to fit perfectly on your Trophy or Belt Side Plate.  For trophies, place the league plate at the middle-top of the front surface, lining up corner to corner on the left and right side.  

The side plates of the belt will have a football field design with notches along the edges that indicate where the name plates should be placed.  Our side plates look great with or without engraved name plates, but we all know it looks best when YOUR name is inscribed into the history books!

Can I get blank engravings with my trophy order?

Because of the nature of our laser engraved name plates, we do not offer blank name plates for free with perpetual trophy purchases.  

If this is upsetting news, please hear us out…  Blank name plates would have to be peeled off your trophy base at the end of the season, driven to your local musky trophy shop, and cost around $20. You'll risk alignment and fonts not being correct, thus wasting half your day on an experience that’s supposed to be fun. 

Once you crown a champ, additional engravings can be purchased here for just $9 shipped right to your door- with the correct size, font, and formatting- ready to be affixed into history on your TrophySmack trophy.

I did not receive my engravings. Where are they?

Check your packing slip as your engravings will be stapled to the back to ensure that they are not lost or damaged in transit. 

If your engravings are not attached to the back of your packing slip, please allow 3-5 days for production plus shipping time for engravings.

Typically, engravings ship together with your order. On rare occasions if you are purchasing from Amazon or Etsy, your engravings will ship separately from your hardware. 

My engravings turned out wrong. What can I do?

Mistakes happen. If there’s an error with your engraving, let us know.
