Since its inception in Bahrain in 1970, the Arabian GulfCup has evolved into a cherished symbol of Gulf unity, reflecting the shared history and identity of the region.
Over the years, the championship’s trophies have undergone significant transformations, each design narrating a unique chapter of this sporting legacy. The inaugural trophy, crafted in Bahrain, was a white gold design featuring two olive branches and a hexagonal figure, symbolizing peace.

Today, the sixth and current version is a masterpiece of pure gold, shaped like an incense burner adorned with pearls and wrapped in a Gulf shemagh (traditional headdress), embodying the cohesion and solidarity of the Gulf people.
