Standard of photographs

As part of the registration process the league needs good quality photographs to allow our scanning process to pick them up from the team registration sheets and enable the print cycle to complete without a hitch.

1. Please ensure that the photograph is a recent one, if we find the supplied image is the same as the one on record for last season then the registration will be REJECTED.
2. If you provide a paper photograph that is too light in colour, or the glue has caused a problem soaking through, then it will be REJECTED, don’t use paper photographs.
3. If the head is too small then the photograph will be REJECTED.
4. If a photograph is one that has “sample” or “proof” stamped across it from a School batch then it will be REJECTED

This season we estimate that we have over 8,000 cards to complete before the season starts, please do not waste our registration secretary’s time.

Ask yourself “Would the passport office accept it” answer “No” then we are likely to REJECT the player’s registration.
