# Cyclo-cross Trophy

The Cyclo-cross Trophy (Dutch: Trofee veldrijden), also known as X²O Badkamers Trophy (Dutch: X²O Badkamers Trofee), is a Belgian cyclo-cross racing series currently sponsored by X²O Badkamers (X²O Bathrooms). It is one of the three major season-long competitions in Cyclo-cross, the other two being UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup and Cyclo-cross Superprestige. Many races are held in the province of Antwerp with others being held across Belgium.

## History and Name Changes

The first ever event was held on 1 November 1987 in Putte-Peulis and it was sponsored by the Flemish newspaper Gazet van Antwerpen. Between 1987-2012 the event was known as Gazet van Antwerpen Trofee. After that it changed the sponsor several times. Between 2012-2016 it was known as BPost Bank Trophy and between 2017-2019 it was known as the DVV Trophy. Since 2020 the event is known as X²O Badkamers Trophy. The Elite Women final classification is known as Soudal Ladies Trophy while the Under-23 Men classification is known as Trimetal Rookie Trophy.
In Belgium and the Netherlands the event is called Trofee veldrijden.
| From Season | Until Season | Main Sponsor |
| 1987–88 | 2011–12 | Gazet van Antwerpen |
| 2012–13 | 2015–16 | BPost Bank |
| 2016–17 | 2019–20 | DVV |
| 2020–21 | | X²O Badkamers |

## Classification System

In 2012–2013, the way that the general classification was calculated was changed from a points system to using the riders' finishing times of each race (like a road racing stage race) with time 'bonuses' also available at an intermediate 'sprint' at the end of the first lap with 15, 10 and 5 seconds being awarded. The maximum time a rider can lose in the general classification is 5 minutes, excluding the bonus seconds. When a rider does not finish or does not start, they are handed a 5-minute time loss, excluding bonus seconds.
