Bennett Awards in the Spotlight
From Placerville to Global Spotlight: Bennett Awards Crafts Bespoke Trophy for NFL's Kelce Brothers
Bennett Awards, a small yet mighty powerhouse nestled in Placerville, has once again captured global attention by crafting a one-of-a-kind trophy. This latest creation was commissioned by NFL stars Jason and Travis Kelce, following their discovery of Bennett Awards on social media. The trophy, designed for the fans of the Kelce brothers' popular podcast "New Heights," was inspired by major sports trophies like the Stanley Cup and the NFL Trophy. The design aims to blend grandeur with heartfelt significance, drawing from an amusing anecdote from Jason’s early career when he was asked to sign a baby. The final product, referred to as the "Golden Baby," weighs 100 pounds and was celebrated by the Kelce brothers for its exceptional craftsmanship, reflecting the spirit of both the podcast and Jason's personal story. This project underscores Bennett Awards' reputation for excellence and creativity, producing world-class trophies that resonate widely from their quaint yellow studio in Placerville.
