Official Rookie

How it works

One photo, about three minutes

No design skills, no app, no account. If you can fill in a short form you can make this card.

  1. 1. Pick the sport

    Baseball, softball, soccer, basketball, football or hockey. The sport sets the card's colors, the list of positions you choose from, and which stats belong on the back. A goaltender is offered goaltender, not 'forward'.

  2. 2. Type their details

    Name, jersey number, team and position. Then the back, all of it optional: height, weight, birthday, and one line in your own words. Whatever you leave blank simply does not print, so there are no empty dashes on the card.

  3. 3. Send one photo

    Any photo where you can see their face. Move and zoom it until it sits right. Nothing we do repaints a face or changes a body: the photo is placed and cropped, and that is the whole of it.

  4. 4. Check it, then pay

    The last screen is the card that prints, spelling included. Fix a name there and it costs nothing. Then $39 for the printed card with the file, or $29 for the file on its own.

  5. 5. The file arrives tonight

    Front, back and a print-ready page, emailed the same evening. The printed card is made to order and mailed, and we email you again when it is with the printer.

The card that prints

If it is not right, we fix it

30 days on the digital card.

If the file is not what you hoped, email us inside 30 days and we refund it. No form, no restocking fee.

A free reprint if the printed card is wrong.

If it arrives damaged, or with a mistake that was ours, send a photo and we print it again and mail it at no charge. It is made to order with your child's face on it, so a reprint is the remedy rather than a return.

You see the card before you pay.
