The Trophies
Our unique trophies have become an integral part of TPSF. Some were crafted by our own Seth Aufderheide, while others were thrift-store finds. Regardless of the origin, any of these trophies brings with it a sense of pride and honor for the recipient.
Champions Cup:
The TPSF Champions Cup is awarded to the players on the winning team of that year’s game. The Champions Cup was inspired by the NHL’s Stanley Cup, with TPSF-inspired flair, of course. To drink from the Champions Cup is an honor only bestowed upon those on the winning team.

This trophy, the oldest in the TPSF family of trophies, quite simply honors the Most Valuable Player of the game. The MVP award is voted on by the players after the game.
