Thunderbowl Blood Bowl League Selects IB to Remake Coveted Trophy
Inspired Bronze was selected to remake the Spike! Magazine Trophy for the Spike! Magazine Tournament presented by the Thunderbowl Blood Bowl League.
Inspired Bronze will model the original Spike! design in clay and cast in bronze. The unique bronze trophy will be presented to the winner of the Spike! Magazine Trophy at the Spike! Magazine Tournament’s closing ceremony, September 30th in Vancouver, Canada. Each year a trophy is awarded to the coach with the highest coaching record achieved at the Spike! Magazine tournament.
“We enjoy working on unique projects and recreating the Spike! Magazine Trophy is ideal. We are excited for the opportunity to recreate the original design and look forward to providing a high quality replica that the Spike! Trophy recipients will appreciate,” says Inspired Bronze President.
Thunderbowl is the largest table top Blood Bowl League in the world. Established in 1998 with six Members in Surrey, British Columbia, and Canada. Thunderbowl in 2012 now represents the entire GVRD, with over 40 active Members annually and over 50 Thunderbowl Alumni. On top of hosting ongoing monthly events since 2005, the Thunderbowl also hosts the NAF Canada Major the Spike! Magazine Tournament: one of five NAF Major tournaments held once a year across the globe.
“We chose Inspired Bronze because they were committed to this project. … Their follow-up is phenomenal, and they were eager to remake the Spike! We had been to two other custom trophy designers that forged in bronze, one local and one in the States, but neither displayed the same follow-up, professionalism or skills that Inspired Bronze possessed. Their commitment to remaking the trophy to the life sized bronze replica of the original has been exacting, which is what we wanted from the beginning and we were glad to find a company that was focused on doing the same and doing it right.” said Craig McAree, Member, Thunderbowl Blood Bowl League.
