Swede Jonas Björkman and Australian Todd Woodbridge with loving-cup trophies after winning the Men's Doubles event at the 2004 Wimbledon Tennis Championships. A trophy is a reward for a specific accomplishment, and usually afterwards serves as proof of merit. They are most often awarded with sporting events. These range from youth sports through professional level athletics. Often, the reward of the trophy is not simply in winning it; rather, those who win it cherish the legacy that also comes with the trophy.

It can take the shape of loving cups, bowls, or mugs (all usually engraved); statues of people, animals, architecture, or anything else; displays of words or numbers; or anything else left to the imagination of the trophy designer. They are most commonly based on a platform of sturdy cardboard resembling wood, except for the most expensive of trophies. For example, the Academy Awards Oscar is a trophy with a stylized human; the Hugo Award for science fiction is a space ship trophy; and the Wimbledon award is a large loving cup.
