The medal, designed by Alex Shagin and Gerry Muhl is described as follows:

Obverse:

It shows a freedom of Spirit and liberty without which art will not develop. There is a flow of life letting creativity develop to the fullest.

The medal speaks of working together in the game of life to build on what came before in a spirit of joy - not being tied down to just one idea.

Reverse:

The medal is playful in that you have to hold it and look at it from many angles. You have to turn it to examine and read it - especially the ribbon in the back with the name of the club. Are you in the Game?
