What is the 5 1/2" Antique Gold Soccer Ball Resin?
The 5 1/2" Antique Gold Soccer Ball Resin is what most buyers mean when they ask for a trophy that will not look cheap in six months. It measures 5 1/2". This is the gold colorway.
Casting is what allows shapes, figures, sport-specific sculpts, dimensional forms, that simply cannot be cut from crystal or metal at a comparable price. It is the reason resin dominates youth sport and participation awards.
Trophies photograph well, that matters when the award is going to be posted before it is shelved. On this substrate specifically: decoration is applied to an engraving plate or a printed plate fitted to the base, not to the sculpt itself.
At this level the piece is doing relationship work, not advertising work. Reserve it for named recipients, key clients, top performers, long-service milestones, and personalize it individually. Concretely: $48.30 each at 1-11, $29.95 at 500+.

Artwork requirements
- If the logo is only available as a bitmap, we need it at 300 dpi or better at final size, ideally on a transparent background.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- Send the file you have, even if it is imperfect. We will tell you honestly whether it will hold up and redraw it if it will not.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.

Common uses
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Budgets are tight and quantities are large, which pushes toward mid-tier items ordered in volume. Alumni and donor gifting is the exception: that is where the spend per unit rises sharply, because the return is measured in gifts rather than impressions. Trophies photograph well, that matters when the award is going to be posted before it is shelved. Even at volume it holds $29.95, which tells you what tier this is.
Employee Recognition & Service Awards
Recognition fails when the object does not match the words. The presentation matters as much as the piece. An award handed over in a hallway is worth a fraction of the same award presented in front of the team, which means the object should be specified for the moment it will be photographed in, not the shelf it ends on. Decoration is applied to an engraving plate or a printed plate fitted to the base, not to the sculpt itself. Spend it where the relationship is worth more than the invoice.
Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events
Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. Guests keep what they can use and discard what merely commemorates. An item that works on an ordinary Tuesday will outlive the event by years; one that only makes sense on the day will not survive the drive home. The trophy format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. At $48.30 before breaks this is relationship work, not advertising.
Sports Leagues, Tournaments & Clubs
Sport needs volume, deadlines and a clear hierarchy of awards. Participation medals for the field, distinct pieces for placegetters, and something with real presence for the overall champion. Production timing is usually the binding constraint, so lock artwork well before the event rather than after the results are known. Reserve it for named recipients: key clients, top performers, long service.

What do buyers ask about SBR123?
How is this decorated?
We run laser engraving (plate) on SBR123 as standard. A permanent engraved plate on a cast body. We can also run UV Printing (plate) and Sublimated Plate on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on SBR123 is 2.4 in x 2.75 in. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.
Is there a setup charge?
There is no setup charge, ever. Art preparation, machine setup and the proof are part of the price on this page. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on SBR123 runs from $48.30 a piece at 1-11 down to $29.95 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
Can I see a proof before you produce the order?
Always, and we do not start without written approval. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. Once approved, the proof becomes the specification for the run, so check the spelling and the placement carefully. The personalization area on SBR123 is 2.4 in x 2.75 in.
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on SBR123 is 2.4 in x 2.75 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.
How should this be cared for?
Dust with a soft dry cloth. SBR123 measures 5 1/2" and is made of resin. Casting is what allows shapes, figures, sport-specific sculpts, dimensional forms, that simply cannot be cut from crystal or metal at a comparable price. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file.
How long does production take?
Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. The clock starts when you approve the proof, not when you place the order. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
What is the minimum order for SBR123?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on SBR123. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The price per piece only goes down as the quantity rises. The published ladder on SBR123 runs from $48.30 a piece at 1-11 down to $29.95 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
