CUGC have several trophies and prizes that are awarded at our AGM, usually in May. Some of them [[GPS traces|require GPS traces ]] or other things to be submitted, and some are selected by the committee. It is important to know the details of each so that you can try your best to win them! '''Getting GPS Traces''' When we talk about 'GPS traces', we are talking about a log file containing height and position for the whole flight, called an IGC file. Conveniently, all gliders at Gransden (including [[:Category:CU|CU]]) are fitted with FLARM units that have loggers built in. Alternatively you can use your own logger. The [https://bgashop.co.uk/cart/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=152 FR300] is popular. If using the FLARM unit as your logger, make sure a microSD card is present before launching. Afterwards, speak to an instructor about recovering your log file from the SD card. It should download to the SD card, which you can then remove and take the '.igc' file off of it on the computers in the briefing room. Then send that IGC file to the committee to get it scored. It's worth noting that looking at your own GPS traces can be a very valuable way to analyse your flying. There are several free IGC viewers online which will allow you to replay your flight minute by minute, and potentially show you where you went wrong. If you're confused about any of this, speak to some experienced members who will be happy to help.

Awarded for the greatest cumulative height gain in a flight that is under 50 minutes, following [[varsity]] rules. The winner of this trophy is the winner of the [[cuppers]] competition. [[GPS traces ]] should be submitted to the committee or president for scoring, in the format discussed at the top of on [[GPS traces|the linked page]].
