NBSC 100th Anniversary Matte Plated Medal
From the first glance, the medal captures attention through its bold “100” emblem, which serves as the central motif of the design. Integrated into this figure, the initials NBSC and the year 2025 are prominently displayed, ensuring the event and its significance are remembered long after the celebration concludes. Flowing seamlessly across the center are two gracefully sculpted dolphins, presented in three-dimensional relief. This design element conveys vitality, strength, and harmony—qualities that align perfectly with the spirit of competitive sports and the enduring unity of the NBSC community.
Moving from design to material, the medal is forged using zinc alloy die-casting, a method chosen for its ability to deliver strength, fine detail, and consistency. The surface undergoes matte electroplating, available in three distinguished finishes—gold, silver, and bronze. Unlike high-gloss coatings, the matte treatment creates a refined, understated look that resists fingerprints and wear, ensuring the medal maintains its professional appearance during ceremonies and for years to come.
When considering its role in the 100th Anniversary Tournament, the medal serves as far more than a recognition of performance. It stands as a physical reminder of endurance, tradition, and the collective identity of the NBSC. By presenting participants with such a medal, event organizers provide winners and contributors with a keepsake that preserves both the memory of the competition and the significance of the centennial celebration.

How to Design Anniversary Medals
1. Define the Theme and Purpose
Begin by identifying the core message of the anniversary. Whether it is a 10th, 50th, or 100th anniversary, the medal design should symbolize heritage, achievement, and celebration. Align the visual elements with the values of the organization or event.
2. Highlight Milestone Numbers
Incorporate the anniversary year or milestone number (e.g., “50,” “75,” “100”) prominently. Using cut-outs, raised numbers, or bold fonts ensures the milestone remains the centerpiece of the design.
3. Use Meaningful Symbols
Add icons, mascots, or emblems that represent the organization or event history. For example, dolphins, stars, or torches can convey vitality, progress, or unity. Symbols provide immediate recognition and emotional connection.
4. Choose Premium Materials
Select durable materials such as zinc alloy, brass, or iron for casting. Consider finishes like matte plating, antique effects, or dual-tone electroplating to elevate the visual appeal while ensuring longevity.
5. Incorporate 3D Relief and Textures
Enhance the medal with layered 3D reliefs, sandblasted surfaces, or polished highlights. This combination of textures creates visual depth and makes details like logos, mascots, or lettering more striking.
6. Apply Custom Coloring
Use soft enamel, hard enamel, or translucent coloring to emphasize brand identity and event details. Carefully chosen colors highlight important elements such as the anniversary year or organization initials.
7. Design a Unique Shape
Move beyond traditional round medals by experimenting with custom outlines. Shaping the medal around numbers, mascots, or symbols makes the design instantly distinctive and more memorable.
8. Add Functional Features
Consider incorporating spinning centers, cut-out sections, glow-in-the-dark effects, or dual plating. These innovative features add interactivity and increase the perceived value of the medal.
9. Pair with a Custom Ribbon
A well-designed ribbon is essential to complete the medal. Use sublimated ribbons with the organization’s colors, name, or anniversary logo. Ensure the ribbon matches the medal’s tone for a cohesive presentation.
10. Focus on Event Storytelling
Finally, ensure the medal tells a story. Each design element—from the plating finish to the emblem placement—should connect back to the anniversary celebration. The goal is to create not just an award but a lasting keepsake that participants will treasure.
