These Are the Benefits of Sports Awards and Trophies

October 13, 2020

Previous generations always seem to claim that more recent generations are lazier and more entitled. While it’s hard to prove which generation is the most entitled, it’s pretty easy to see which generation has it harder — the millennials. 

That’s right, millennials have far fewer privileges today than the older generations had in their day. Due to inflation, job insecurity, the rising cost of living, and stagnated wages, millennials have to work much harder for far less. What’s wrong with rewarding millennials with a few trophies for their extra efforts in these tough times?

To find out why sports awards are not a bad thing, check out the information below.

They Encourage Athletes

Of course, one of the main benefits of sports trophies is the motivation they provide. They encourage athletes to participate in order to win something that makes them feel recognized and good.

The ability to work toward something and earn a result increases an individual’s self-efficacy — or their belief in their own ability. It’s a great confidence booster as well.

They Promote Diligence

The promise of a sports award helps seal some athletes’ commitment to their demanding sports schedules. It can even help them be more diligent in working with the team.

A trophy helps athletes set a goal and work toward that goal, with goal completion being the true purpose, and a great skill to learn. They can clearly see the end goal when an award is involved, make it a more clear objective to work toward.

They Provide Feedback

Feedback is one of the most important facets of education for young people. Too much negative feedback can be very discouraging and create a negative effect and association for the person receiving it. Feedback must balance the positive with the negative.

Sports awards are one way to provide positive feedback. They let the athlete know that their efforts did not go unnoticed or unappreciated.

A coach is better able to describe expectations when there is a specific award involved. As a result, the athlete knows how to ask for feedback in their progress more specifically as they work toward the goal of winning the award.

They Can Celebrate Diversity

There does not just need to be a single trophy or award for the fastest or strongest athlete. Other sports awards, like the Most Valuable Player (MVP), can help highlight other strengths that are important in an athlete.

If the coach is wise, he can create a few different trophies to highlight other valuable attributes. For example, best attendance can highlight the importance of timeliness for a commitment. Or, team trophies enhance the value of working with others.

Websites like Trophyman has some unique designs that may suit any purpose.

Distributing Sports Awards

Even websites like Yelp and Yahoo Answers provide people with badges, the internet form of a trophy. Adults are motivated to provide more help on these websites because they can earn special recognition. It’s a process that benefits the whole community, much like sports awards can.
