The one they're really after

The championship trophy

Every competition crowns a winner, but not every competition makes a trophy worth winning. Each championship trophy is a handcrafted fibreglass snapper, individually made and hand painted by taxidermist Ros Farrugia. No two are the same — same as no two winning stories are.
