Choosing the right stats for a sports card is the part that makes it feel real. Whether you are making a card for a footballer, a cricketer, a basketball player or any other sport, the six stat slots are your chance to capture what makes that player special. This guide walks you through how to pick stats that work, how to frame numbers honestly, and how to make the finished card something the player will actually want to display. CardStar cards are available in A5 (14.8 脳 21 cm, 5.8 脳 8.3 in) to A0 (84.1 脳 118.9 cm, 33.1 脳 46.8 in), printed to order and cut to their outline, so the stats you choose will look great at any scale.
How to write trading card back stats
Six stats, one photo, a card that tells the whole story. Here is how to write the stats on the back of any sports card.
Questions, answered
Do the stats have to come from an official source?
Not at all. The card is yours to create, and the stats can come from any source you trust: a season tally you have kept yourself, a coach's records, or your own knowledge of the player. There is no requirement to use official or verified data.
What if I do not know one of the six stats?
You can use a rating instead of a raw number if you do not have a specific figure. Ratings out of 10 or out of 100 work well for skills like speed, teamwork or consistency. Alternatively, leave a stat as a round number if that is the closest you can get. The card will still look great.
Can I use the same six stats for every player in a team order?
Yes, and it is often a good idea. Using the same six stat categories across a full team makes the cards feel like a matching set. Each player gets their own numbers, but the format is consistent, which looks especially good when the cards are displayed together.
Are there stat labels already on the card, or do I write my own?
You write your own labels and your own numbers. The card design provides the layout and the six stat slots, but everything inside those slots is up to you. That means you can tailor the stats to any sport, any position and any player.
How do I add a photo to the card?
You upload a photo when you create the card. The background is removed automatically, so the player sits cleanly on the card design. If you are making a card for a child, a parent can add the photo through the card builder or, for team orders, through a shared link that you control.
What sizes can I print the card in?
Cards are available in A5 (14.8 脳 21 cm, 5.8 脳 8.3 in) to A0 (84.1 脳 118.9 cm, 33.1 脳 46.8 in). The stats panel is designed to read clearly at every size, from a small card suitable for a gift to a large format that works as a wall display. You can preview the card before you choose your size, so you can see exactly how it will look when printed.
