Shadowline Rugby Forward of the Year Trophy – Stainless Steel Award

Recognise power, determination, and consistency with the Shadowline Rugby Forward of the Year Trophy — a contemporary award designed to celebrate the player who has made the biggest impact in the forward pack throughout the season.

Forwards are the engine of any rugby team, responsible for physical dominance, set-piece strength, and relentless work rate. This award is ideal for honouring the player whose tackling, carrying, scrummaging, and overall effort have been crucial to their team’s performance and success.

Designed exclusively by Trophy Monster, the Shadowline collection combines precision-cut stainless steel with high-gloss black acrylic, creating a trophy that feels premium, balanced, and visually striking during presentations.

Each trophy features a 1.5mm stainless steel face with a refined matt titanium effect, securely mounted to a 3mm black acrylic backing. This layered construction creates depth and a strong, structured silhouette that stands out during awards ceremonies.

The design is enhanced with a high-quality drop gloss print, producing a raised metallic-style effect that catches the light and adds a distinctive finish. With ten colour options available, the trophy can be tailored to match club colours, team branding, or event themes.

Available in three sizes — 200mm, 210mm, and 220mm — this award is ideal for end-of-season presentations, club awards nights, and rugby recognition events. Free engraving is included as standard, allowing you to personalise each trophy with names, teams, season details, or competition titles.

Part of the Shadowline range, the Rugby Forward of the Year Trophy is a fitting tribute to strength, effort, and dominance in the forward pack.
