Two print-ready design directions for the Forge Fest player & staff cards. Click any card to flip it and see the back. Nothing here is final — this is to align on look & the info we collect before the survey is built.
Print-safe by design. Both directions use flat CMYK color only — no foil, no metallic ink — so they can be printed on cardstock at The UPS Store in Geneva. Cards are laid out at true 2.5″ × 3.5″ (standard trading-card size); use your browser's Print to see a proof sheet.
Real player photos. The two sample faces are the real kids Bridgett sent, so this page is set to noindex and should stay unlinked / behind the admin gate — not deployed publicly — until the club confirms photo consent.
The Illustrated Redraw
Per the plan, kids get an AI-stylized illustration, not the raw photo. Two sample players × three redraw styles — shown on the card front so you can judge them in context. (Same order left-to-right in both rows.)
The Player Card
Front = photo + identity · Back = the info from your survey
Staff, Coaches, Directors & Board
Same family, tuned per role — color-coded, soccer stats swapped for role details
The Survey Form
This is the form each player/family fills out. Every answer has a size limit so it always fits the card — the counter turns gold as you get close and locks when you hit the max. Type in the fields and watch the live card update. It's loaded with the longest allowed answers so you can see the worst-case fit.
Player Identity
First name + last initial keeps it privacy-safe.
Signals the age group — no birthdate needed.

What each card back captures
Players — Current Position, Years Playing Soccer, Previous Club, plus Favorites (Movie, Athlete, Team, Food, Song) and a Character Quality crest (Integrity · Perseverance · Indomitable Spirit · Respect).
Coaches / Directors / Staff — Role details (Coaching Since, License, Playing Background) replace the youth stats; Favorites + Character Quality stay for a consistent set.
Board — Years With Club, Role, "Why Forge" line, plus Favorites + Character Quality.
Color code — Navy = players & coaches · Crimson accent = directors · Gold = board.
Once you pick a direction, I'll turn each card slot into an exact survey question so the form captures precisely what the template needs.
