This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.

Kingston Trophies

Kingston Trophies was founded by Ian Mann in 1980 to service the local sporting community with its award needs. The business was based in Chandler St, Parkdale for over 30 years before moving firstly to Braeside and since 1 July to Dingley Village. Ian sold the business to a consortium of partners in 2020 led by Brett Sebire who continued to grow the business before selling to the O'Meara family in July 2024.

Kingston Trophies services a wide variety of sports clubs, schools and corporate partners. It is especially strong in servicing the golf industry with most of the Sandbelt Clubs in South East Melbourne as partners.

The business offers a number of traditional trades including hand engraving, diamond cut engraving, laser and sand blasting and therefore can engrave on most surfaces. In addition, it also has craftsman who can repair and clean trophies.

Kingston Trophies continues to be a locally owned business who works very closely with its community in supplying trophies and awards and engraving services.
