Need Help With Tournament Name Ideas

I run a very informal league throughout the calendar year (it really just started by me keeping stats). At year end I invite all the players who won a tourney and played in enough events to come play in my "Tournament of Champions". It was a little extra special since we bumped up the buy-in, added bounties, and a goofy little trophy and has now become an annual thing.

This year I am altering the deal. I've decided to limit this championship style tourney to the top 6 average point players, plus the previous years winner gets an automatic invite as well, regardless of point score. Since I have changed the criteria for my "invitational tourney", I really can't call it the "Tournament of Champions" any longer. I was hoping to get a little help with some ideas as to what I can call it going forward. Please remember the name must fit on a trophy.

Thanks!

Re: Need Help With Tournament Name Ideas

We host a similar 'Championship Tournament' at the end of each league regular season for qualified players (top six regular season finishers, plus the winner of the Last Chance Tournament held for positions 7-12).

Our annual 'Tournament of Champions' is restricted to those players who have won a Regular Season or Championship Tournament title in the past (this is our 10th season) -- truly a tournament of champions.

Hmmm, how about one of these:

Point Leader Championship
Tournament of Point Pimps
Point Monsters Championship
Grinders Championship
Tournament of Top Dawgs
Tournament Leaders Championship
Point Leader Showdown
Tournament of Points
Points Championship

I'll admit some of them are lame, but figured my brainstorming could help you out.

Good luck (and let us know what you decide on)!

I like the invitational idea. I'd also like to get across that these players are the best of the best.

Re: Need Help With Tournament Name Ideas

Will 'The Best Of The Moderately Average Invitational' fit on your trophy?

If not 'The Luckbox Invitational' has a certain ring to it
