Is that less annoying than a participation trophy? The trophy takes up space and costs money, the certificate does neither.

It's what you get when you don't get a varsity letter. Not annoying at all.

Ahh- didn't know how to read it.
I'm just finishing a bunch of kid sport seasons where all the kids get participation trophies.
My favorite coach tells his parents each season that he gives two year end awards- MVP, and most improved. I like that, rather than giving every 6 year old a big trophy
