Project Story: Football Challenge Coins<\/h2>\n

2019 marks 150 years for collegiate football. The first organized game was played by Rutgers and Princeton on November 6, 1869. Since then football has evolved into the game we know and love today. An organization has been established to plan and celebrate this occasion\u00a0in 2019. More info at www.cfb150.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n

High school, collegiate, and professional coaches and staff: Celebrate your program’s genesis and culture with a challenge coin designed just for you. Recognize merit or present at a special event. Athletic awards are some of the most cherished\u00a0keepsakes of one’s academic years. They often come at great sacrifice and adversity. High-quality coins, medals, and special presentation pieces live and display much longer than a small trophy-shop plaque or statuette ever could.\u00a0 No one designs and delivers for these types of programs\u00a0better than C. Forbes, Inc.<\/p>\n
