The [[KOA Shield]] is the world trophy owned for one year by every Kick Off World Champion. <br />
The first [[KOA Shield]] was donated by [[Steve Screech]] to the [[KOA]] on [[:Category:Kick Off History|2001]] for [[:Category:2001 KOA World Cup|the first Kick Off World Cup Gathering in Dartford, Englad]], organized and fully paid by [[Steve Screech]] himself.<br />
<br />
[[Alkis Polyrakis]] won '''SHIELD 1''' in [[:Category:Kick Off History|2001]]. He lost it in [[:Category:2002 KOA World Cup|2002 World Cup]] to [[Rikki Fullarton]]. [[Rikki Fullarton]] was banned from the [[:Category:2003 KOA World Cup|Groningen Gathering]]. [[Rikki Fullarton]] kept '''SHIELD 1''' and no-one ask for it back.<br />
<br />
'''SHIELD 2''' was given to [[Alkis Polyrakis]] by his friends in the [[KOA]] because he used to do a lot of work for the [[KOA]]. A bunch of his friends clubbed together to make '''SHIELD 2''', a replica of '''SHIELD 1''', so that [[Alkis Polyrakis]] could forever keep his 'World Cup'.<br />
<br />
'''SHIELD 3''' was created because [[Alkis Polyrakis]] was not expected to give up '''SHIELD 2''' and Rikki was not invited to defend '''SHIELD 1''' or give it back. There was therefore a need for '''SHIELD 3'''. <br />
'''SHIELD 3''' was won by Gianluca in [[:Category:2003 KOA World Cup|2003 Championship]] and in [[:Category:2004 KOA World Cup|2004 Championship]]. '''SHIELD 3''' is now the official World Trophy for the [[:Category:2005 KOA World Cup|2005 World Gathering]].<br />
