Senior night comes once in a player's career at that level, and the right gift should feel as significant as the occasion. A personalized CardStar sports card does exactly that: it puts the player's photo front and centre alongside their name, position and the six stats that sum up their season. Every card is printed to order, cut to the shape of the design and sized from a desk-top A5 (14.8 脳 21 cm, 5.8 脳 8.3 in) to a hallway-filling A0 (A5 to A0 (84.1 脳 118.9 cm, 33.1 脳 46.8 in)), to suit a frame, a mantel or a locker-room wall. This guide walks you through why a personalized card works so well as a senior night gift and how to put one together, whether you are buying for one player or an entire squad.

Questions, answered
What sports can I make a senior night card for?
CardStar has designs for a wide range of sports including football, basketball, American football, cricket, ice hockey and others. If your sport is not covered by a named design, the Create your own option lets you set a custom shape and background so you can still build something relevant.
What stats should I put on a senior night card?
You choose all six stats yourself, so you can use whatever numbers best represent that player's contribution. Season totals, averages, personal bests or even symbolic numbers all work. There is no fixed formula: the card is yours to create.
What photo works best for the card?
A clear head and shoulders photo or a clean action shot both work well. CardStar removes the background from the photo so the player appears directly on the card design. Even a photo taken on a phone in good light will produce a strong result.
How do I order cards for a full senior group?
Use the team orders tool. You set up the design, share a link with parents or players, and each parent can add their child's photo through that link. You can review the photos before anything goes to print, and all the cards are delivered together.
Can I see how the card will look before I order?
Yes. The card updates as you work on it and you can preview the finished design before placing your order. That lets you check the name, stats and photo all look right across whatever size you have chosen.
What sizes are available and which is best for a senior night gift?
Six sizes are available from 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). For a senior night gift, mid-range sizes are popular because they frame well and display easily at home. Larger sizes make a strong presentation on the night itself. You can decide on size last, once you are happy with the design.
