In the end they are all just dust catchers, especially under the championship level. I have no idea what the awards look like, but glass squares sound nice. Something other than the same old plastic trophy, people can pack it home easily if they flew or took the train in and it will look nice displayed rather than a big plastic trophy. What would you want it to be?

I know there are some people in OP love to complain about trophies unless they are giant things. It is silly. If you are in Irish dance for a trophy it would be cheaper to just buy the trophy.

- The international feis is a feis. It isnt technically part of Worlds. (NT) -- Never has been, 01:15:17 04/09/26 Thu
  - it's connected to worlds, every dancer deserves a half decent trophy at a major (NT) -- anon, 01:45:21 04/09/26 Thu
    - But it isn't a major, it is just a feis -- Every year, 12:22:26 04/09/26 Thu
      - Couldnt agree more, its just a normal feis so prizes should be of normal WIDA standard (NT) -- Only bigger prizes and awards should be for the qualifier feis e.g Irish opens and worlds. Thats it, 12:48:32 04/09/26 Thu
        I found a picture of the awards. They are cute models of the World Championship logos showing the local skyline. -- Don't get it., 15:31:30 04/09/26 Thu
Itâ€™s not â€˜aboutâ€™ the trophy but unfortunately for WIDA it is not creating an image that encourages dancers to want to take part. (NT) -- Itâ€™s all their flagship event and should look as such., 03:52:27 04/09/26 Thu
- I 100% agree with you here, very articulated point!! (NT) -- anon, 04:56:35 04/09/26 Thu
- What would look the part? What is considered a good prize for a feis? -- ?, 12:31:15 04/09/26 Thu
