Golf trophy and plaque engraving
Engraving turns a cup into the record of one round. Fairway Trophy Co engraves the winner, the tournament, the flight or category and the year, and matches the marking method to the metal plate, acrylic or walnut on the piece you chose.

What should a golf committee send for engraving?
Send Fairway Trophy Co one row per piece: the winner's name, the tournament title, the category written in full, and the year. For contest prizes add the hole number. Type each name the way the golfer signs a scorecard, and say whether a measured distance should appear. Unconfirmed measurements stay off the plate.
What does engraving look like for a flighted club event?
Take a member tournament with a championship flight and two more flights below it. On the Classic Golf Tournament Trophy the cup plate carries the tournament title and year, and the base plate carries the category and the winner: First Flight Winner, Dana Whitfield. Only those two lines change from one cup to the next. The side prizes follow a different pattern. Each of the Longest Drive & Closest-to-Pin Awards names the contest, the hole and the golfer, and the scoring chair decides whether the yardage is added. A tie settled by a scorecard playoff still produces one winner per plate. Engrave from the posted final results, not the first sheet off the scoring table.
An example from this collection
Classic Golf Tournament Trophy
Choose the height around the importance of the category rather than making every award equally large. A larger overall championship cup and smaller flight awards create a clear hierarchy for the ceremony.
The details to personalize: winner, tournament, category, year. The product page lets you enter them and carry the design into your quote request.
How do results get from the scoreboard to the plate?
01
Fix the category titles first
Decide the exact titles before play: Overall Gross Champion, Low Net, Second Flight Winner. Fixed titles can be engraved on the main plate early, which leaves only the golfer's name to add once the scores are posted.
02
Type names from the entry list
Copy each name from the tournament entry list or handicap roster instead of a handwritten scorecard. Keep suffixes such as Jr. and III, and ask members who go by a middle name which form they want on the cup.
03
Read contest plates against the hole signs
Contest prizes go wrong on the hole number more often than on the name. Check each proof line against the contest sheet: which hole, which contest, men's or women's, and the unit if a distance is shown.

Questions about golf trophy and plaque engraving
What should a golf committee send for engraving?
Send Fairway Trophy Co one row per piece: the winner's name, the tournament title, the category written in full, and the year. For contest prizes add the hole number. Type each name the way the golfer signs a scorecard, and say whether a measured distance should appear. Unconfirmed measurements stay off the plate.
Can winners' names be added after the round is scored?
Yes. Many events order the trophies with the tournament title, year and category already engraved and add the name plate after scoring. Tell Fairway Trophy Co when you request the quote, because the plate has to be designed as a separate part and you need to know how it will reach you and attach.
Can a whole foursome fit on one plate?
Four names fit when the plate is planned for them. Short names can run two to a line; longer ones stack in four lines under the team title. If the team also has a name, such as a sponsor's company, decide which leads. The proof shows the stacked layout at its real letter height.
Should the yardage go on a longest drive award?
Only when the organizer has confirmed the number and its unit. A drive paced off by a volunteer is not the same as a measured one. If there is any doubt, engrave the contest, the hole and the golfer, and leave the figure for the speech at the prize table.
