    Abstract: A board game that uses conceptual trophy case holders for collecting Olympic-style medal awards. The board game utilizes a spinner apparatus and four sets of cards with directives for the collection and distribution of said medals. The game includes a playing board presenting four trophy cases. The object of the game is to fill the trophy cases with medals. The board contains a circular pattern of color-coded symbols and accommodates a central spinner used to select the symbols. The symbols determine the instant awarding of medals or the selection of one of the play action card sets. In addition to traditional gold, silver and bronze medals, the game includes qualifier medals and a set of game pieces called markers. Earning markers is a prerequisite to acquiring medals. These markers and matching medals are objects distributed, collected, traded and exchanged during the play of the game. The game introduces the use of options giving players' choices between directives.
