The team pulled off the Grey Cup win over the Calgary Stampeders last November, in only its third season as a franchise. The Stamps were the heavy favourites heading into the game, and even forced it into overtime before Ottawa got the win.

The championship rings feature the team’s signature R in the centre. They’re engraved on one side with the last name and number of each player. On the other side, you can see a motif of the Parliament buildings, TD Place Stadium, the 104^th Grey Cup and the year 2016. On the inside of the ring, the final score of the REDBLACKS’ win over Calgary is displayed, but the ring also features the final score of the team’s East Final win over the Edmonton Eskimos.

The City of Ottawa is hosting the 105^th Grey Cup at TD Place on November 26, 2017.
