The ICC Cricket World Cup opens at The Oval on May 30. The silver-and-gold trophy is touring England and Wales — a logistics study in protecting an 11.5kg perpetual prize on the road.

Custom Flight Case Is Non-Negotiable
The ICC trophy travels in a foam-cradled aluminum flight case with humidity control. Total case cost: well over ฿250,000. For your own perpetual trophy that travels between schools or club venues, a ฿2,500 foam-lined hard case at order time prevents the ฿15,000 repair bill from a single dropped trophy.
Hand Off With Documentation
Every time the ICC trophy moves venue, a printed handover form records the trophy condition, current handlers, and next destination. For local perpetual trophies that move between schools, a one-page handover form creates accountability and surfaces damage immediately rather than at the next ceremony.
