Short Intro
We create this custom swimming medal for club championships, regional aquatic galas, youth swim meets, and formal water-sports award programmes that need a medal with stronger professionalism and clearer event identity. Instead of using a flat printed medal, we build this design around integrated embossed event text and a clean swimmer silhouette in soft enamel, so the award feels more refined, more durable, and more suitable for serious aquatic competition. With precision zinc alloy die-casting, crisp blue-and-white contrast, and multiple plating options in gold, silver, and bronze, this medal feels modern, formal, and highly suitable for organisers who want a swimming award with long-term commemorative value.

Why This Medal Fits Swimming Championships So Well
- We design this medal especially for swimming championships because the blue-and-white visual language immediately connects with water, speed, and clean athletic precision. The swimmer silhouette and wave details make the medal feel clearly sport-specific, while the controlled layout keeps it suitable for more formal aquatic events rather than casual fun-run use.
- The integrated embossed event text also gives this design a major advantage. We form the event wording directly in metal relief rather than relying on surface printing, which makes the medal feel more permanent and more prestigious. That approach is especially effective for established swim meets and recurring water carnivals where organisers want the medal to carry a stronger long-term identity.
- The segmented outer rim adds another layer of structure. We use recessed rectangular divisions with blue colour injection to create more rhythm and modernity around the circular shape, so the medal feels cleaner and more contemporary than a plain ring-based layout. This makes the design especially suitable for clubs and organisers who want a swimming award that looks both professional and distinctive.
Production Details
- We produce this swimming medal in high-quality zinc alloy through precision die-casting so the outer ring, embossed wording, swimmer icon, and wave motifs remain clean and sharply defined. This process gives the medal stronger structural integrity and a more substantial feel in hand, which is especially important for formal sports awards.
- We create the “Boldmere Water Carnival” wording as integrated metallic relief during die-casting rather than adding it later with printed ink. This gives the text a superior 3D texture and allows it to reflect the natural plating colour of the medal, which makes the overall result feel more refined and more durable.
- We then fill the central swimmer and wave details with white and deep blue soft enamel to create a strong clean contrast against the metallic structure. Around the edge, we apply blue colour injection into the recessed gear-like rim sections, which adds visual rhythm and strengthens the medal’s modern aquatic identity. We also match the medal with a digital-printed ribbon so the full award stays visually consistent from medal face to neck ribbon.
What Can Be Customised for This Medal
We can customise this swimming medal in multiple ways according to your event theme and branding needs, including:
- medal size and thickness
- swimmer silhouette and wave layout
- event name, year, and ranking wording
- club, school, or sponsor logo
- gold, silver, bronze, or other plated finishes
- enamel colour combinations
- ribbon colour, width, and printed branding
- back-side engraving or commemorative message
- packaging for event distribution or premium presentation
This flexibility makes the design suitable not only for one Boldmere-style event, but also for annual swim championships, aquatic club leagues, youth carnival programmes, and wider school or regional water-sports recognition systems.
MOQ & Bulk Order Guidance
We recommend this swimming medal for both medium and large event orders, especially for organisers running club championships, youth aquatic competitions, and recurring water carnival programmes. In most cases, 100 pieces is a practical starting quantity, while larger quantities improve average unit cost and make event-wide customisation more efficient.
For clubs, schools, sports organisers, and wholesale buyers, bulk production also makes it easier to keep the same medal structure while updating the year, wording, ribbon artwork, or branding from one edition to the next. This helps maintain a stronger aquatic event identity while keeping production stable and practical.
