Now I know that many women don’t have an interest in sports. I do. I’ve been a lifelong fan of Chelsea Football (soccer) club and I enjoy pretty much most sports except F1 racing and boxing. I can’t wait for the Olympics next year and am hoping I’ll get to see some of the events live. Being able to converse with your partner about sports can only be a good thing, so I thought I’d provide a short lesson to introduce 8 world famous sporting trophies to you.

Kicking off with one you should all know already and if you don’t, what planet do you live on? The Superbowl Trophy is awarded to the winners of the National Football League championship game. Known as the Vince Lombardi Trophy, each year a new one is made exclusively by top craftsmen at Tiffany. It is quite unusual in the world of trophies, as most major awards are so steeped in history because they are the original one.
There are quite a few, and they're all super impressive! Think about the FIFA World Cup Trophy, the Olympic Medals, and the Stanley Cup. Each one has its own unique history and charm.
Beauty is subjective, but many folks rave about the tennis Wimbledon trophy. It has such classic elegance! Another contender could be the Ashes urn in cricket – it's tiny but has immense historical significance.
Absolutely, the FIFA World Cup Trophy is probably the most instantly recognizable. It’s seen by millions of people worldwide every four years and has this incredible global appeal.
That’s a tough one, but many argue that the Stanley Cup is incredibly hard to win. The journey through the playoff season in NHL is grueling and requires a lot from the teams!
Totally! Each trophy carries stories of legendary matches and unforgettable moments. For example, the FIFA World Cup Trophy was hidden under a bed during WWII to keep it safe. Cool, right?
2. The Ryder Cup

Every two years, the USA plays Europe at golf for the Ryder Cup. The competition is held alternating between courses in the United States and Europe. The trophy is named after the man who donated it, Samuel Ryder, and is unique in golf and probably most other professional sports because it is competed for without any prize money on offer.

If you don’t know anything about cricket, and undoubtedly not many do, you might like this fact about one of the world’s most famous trophies surprising. The Test Series between Australia and England takes place every 2 years in alternating countries. The winner of the series of 5 games gets to keep the Ashes Urn. The trophy is named after a quote in the Sporting Times in 1882, when Australia had beaten England for the first time on English soil. English cricket had died, and the body will be cremated and the ashes taken to Australia. The next series was seen to be the quest to regain the ashes. During that tour, an urn containing the ashes of a cricket bail was presented to the then England captain and it became the symbol for future series'. Here’s the surprise – this hotly contested trophy is but 6 inches tall.

This is the oldest of all world famous sporting trophies. It has been competed for since 1851 and is awarded to the winner of a race between two yachts.
