award ribbon
Winner's fabric badge
An award ribbon is a short strip of colored fabric given as a prize or mark of recognition, typically at competitions, fairs, or exhibitions.
Blue ribbons traditionally indicate first place, red for second, white for third.

The term also covers ribbons worn to show support for causes—pink for breast cancer awareness, yellow for military homecomings.
