How this list was compiled

A list of 100 names for the trophies of a fantasy football league, written by Wheel of Teams on 2026-10-13 and filed in three groups: the champion's trophy, the last-place trophy and weekly awards. Each weekly award carries one line that says what a league might give it for; those lines are suggestions, not rules of any league. Every name is made up from football words, league habits and household things; none is the name or nickname of a real trophy, award, player, coach, team, league or fantasy service, and any match with a trophy somebody already hands out is a coincidence. No fact is stated in the list. Each name was asked for as an English Wikipedia title that day: a coined name that turned out to be a title was taken out. Compared by script the same day with every other name list on this site: no name is repeated. Nothing was checked against a trademark register. Licence: own work
