What is the Basketball Cobra Award-6 1/2"?
The Basketball Cobra Award-6 1/2" is what most buyers mean when they ask for a award that will not look cheap in six months. It measures 6 1/2".
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. That is the difference between something kept and something replaced.
A physical award outlasts every digital form of recognition an organization can hand out. Decoration is applied to an engraving plate or a printed plate fitted to the base, not to the sculpt itself.
The dependable middle. Recipients register it as a real object rather than a handout, and you can still order in the quantities a full team needs. Concretely: $15.50 each at 1-11, $9.61 at 500+.

Artwork requirements
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.
- Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.

Common uses
Recognition programsWorks well for recognition programs, where the award format does what a printed handout cannot.
Annual awardsAnnual awards is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
Milestone markingSpecified regularly for milestone marking. The imprint area at 2.1 in x 3.25 in is sized for exactly that job.
Event and conference giftingHanded to qualified conversations rather than to everyone, so the spend goes where the pipeline is.
Remote team welcome kitsShipped to a home address, which for a distributed team is the only physical touch the company gets.
Executive and board giftingShort lists, individual personalization, and a piece that survives scrutiny.
Client thank-you programsSent after a renewal, a referral or a project close, when the relationship is warm and the gesture will land.
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.
1
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. At $15.50 before breaks this is the tier most programmes should live in.
2
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 holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. Good enough to be kept, affordable enough to order in real quantity.
3
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. The recipient is rarely the decision maker you are trying to reach, which is the part most programs get wrong. Choose something that will sit in a shared space rather than a drawer, and the gift starts working on people who were never on your list. An imprint area of 2.1 in x 3.25 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. This is the sweet spot: real perceived value without a procurement conversation.
4
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. $15.50 before breaks buys something people keep rather than bin.
5
Nonprofit & Fundraising
Every pound spent on a donor gift is a pound not spent on the mission, so the gift has to earn it. Donors read the gift as a statement about stewardship. Something visibly expensive can cost you more in confidence than it earns in goodwill, which is why restraint and a personal inscription usually outperform scale in this sector. Deep enough quantity is affordable here, which is unusual at this quality.

What do buyers ask about CA193?
Can I order more later and have them match?
Yes. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. Material batches can vary slightly on natural materials, which is worth knowing if color matching across orders is critical. The published ladder on CA193 runs from $15.50 a piece at 1-11 down to $9.61 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
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 CA193 runs from $15.50 a piece at 1-11 down to $9.61 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
How should this be cared for?
Dust with a soft dry cloth. CA193 measures 6 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.
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.
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on CA193 is 2.1 in x 3.25 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 is this decorated?
Laser Engraving (plate) is the primary method on CA193. The engraving plate is lasered, then fitted to the award. 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 CA193 is 2.1 in x 3.25 in.
Can you work to a fixed in-hand date?
Yes. Give us the in-hand date and checkout tells you immediately whether standard production makes it. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
What is the minimum order for CA193?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on CA193. 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 CA193 runs from $15.50 a piece at 1-11 down to $9.61 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
