The Golden Goblet of Glory:

Picture
Affectionately known as "The Cup," this hand made,
1 pint tankard serves as a traveling trophy and a symbol
of the Cock & Bull Cup defender. A tournament winner
immediately becomes the defender of the cup, and
retains the vessel of victory until the next tournament.
Should the defender be defeated by a challenger,
the cup will pass on to a new Champion.


Tradition holds that only cup defenders are allowed to inscribe their name on the cup, and this happens immediately after the tournament ends right inside the pub! Plus, the player who shows up and wins the most games during the year keeps the cup and we start with a new one next year!
