The Dodge Cup

History & Description

The Dodge Cup was carved out of an oak tree from the backyard of the Dodge residence. The Dodge Cup is made of solid oak, stained in a "Golden Oak" finish, with a badminton net painted on. It is highlighted with a golden shuttlecock and pure gold plaques.

Traditions

Traditionally, The Dodge Cup remains in the house of the hosting badminton court until the new plaque is engraved and attached to the trophy. At this point, each member of the winning team takes the trophy home for a week. After this two week period, The Dodge Cup is returned to the hosting house for the remainder of the year.

As established by the inaugural winners, Justin R. and Brent M. in 2006 the spring following the Tournament, the winning team members are entitled to have a photo shoot with the trophy, which is to take place at the hosting house.
