Questions, answered
What is the easiest way to organise cards for a whole team?
The team orders tool is the simplest route. You set up the design and share a link. Parents can then add their child's photo through that link, and you review everything before the order is placed. It keeps all the cards consistent and removes the need to chase photos individually.
Can I choose different designs for different players in the same team order?
Yes. Each card in a team order can use a different design if you prefer to give key players or award winners a distinct look. Alternatively, one design across the whole squad gives the set a uniform feel. Both approaches work well depending on the occasion.
What stats should I put on a team photo card?
There are six stat slots and they are completely up to you. For a season review card you might use goals, assists, appearances and a rating. For a coach card you could use seasons, training sessions or personal qualities the team values. The card does not enforce any specific stats, so you fill in what is meaningful.
What photo works best for a team photo card?
A clear head and shoulders photo tends to work best. Phone photos are fine. Good even light helps, but the background is removed from the photo during production so the backdrop does not need to be perfect. For youth teams, parents can add their child's photo through a shared link.
What sizes are available and how do I choose?
Cards come 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). Smaller sizes suit desks, gift boxes or framed displays at home. Larger sizes work well on walls or as display pieces at a club or sports venue. The preview you see before ordering is consistent across all sizes, so you can decide on size last once you are happy with the design.
Can I add a card for the coach alongside the player cards?
Absolutely. A coach or manager card is a great addition to a team set. You use the same process as a player card but fill in the name, role and whatever stats feel right for their contribution. It is a thoughtful way to include everyone involved in a team's season.
