Product Information

With the Toronto Raptors winning the NBA championship last year, basketball has become even more popular with adults and kids alike, especially in Canada. It’s a sport that can be played all year round, both indoors and outdoors with very little equipment aside from a ball, and maybe some pumped up kicks. 

Looking to reward hard-working basketball players, teams and coaches who have been working hard on the court all season? Check out our ideas below for basketball recognition options.

Ways to recognize basketball accomplishments

Recognizing basketball players, teams and coaches is important. Why? It builds pride, shows appreciation for achievements like regular attendance, outstanding performance, leadership qualities, excellent sportsmanship and team spirit. It also motivates players, teams and volunteers to do their best.

So what are the best basketball recognition options? Products such as trophies, medals and plaques work well for these types of awards. And for the dedicated volunteers like coaches, managers, officiators and coordinators, we also provide glass awards to make an even bigger impact. Check out the the Caldwell Recognition seasonal features page to see a variety of award options for players, teams and volunteers.

Personalizing your awards

Engraved awards add a personal and authentic touch, and make a lasting impression. Wording can be as simple as a player’s or team’s name, league, roster and tournament date on an annual trophy, or can include a special message on a glass award thanking dedicated volunteers for their efforts. 

We offer high-quality engraving on a variety of recognition products like glass, crystal, and pewter. Or bring in your glassware and we can brand it for you. Whether you purchase your product from us, or already have an annual award or other item on hand that you already use for recognition, we can personalize it using our specialized engraving tools and machinery. To find out more about our unique sublimation and engraving services, check out our Who are we? page.
