Probably a licensing issue with the Tap n Play cards.Your design work for other sports in great too. Love the Castro design for Perth Glory on your website.
Would be great if Glory did a card release as part of its 20 year celebration this year - current players, legends, etc

I went in today to grab some cards and the lady asked me if I was friends with the Wildcats as well? not sure why haha
She also wanted to rip the tops off the cards so they could put them on the wall. I wanted them in tact so she had to call a manager
I do hope they are selling well.

Yep, found that some of the stores wanted to rip the top off, but I guess they are just following the rules.
I did notice that there are 6 different "Type 1 Facts" on the top section of the card, as per image below.
Of course if they didn't rip the top bit off, there might be some collectors who might want to collect a complete set of each 'fact' for a player, or a complete set of a particular fact.
A terrible disease and imo keeping the 'fact' on the card does drive the message home. But also understand they want to display the commitment to the cause in-store.
Just to end note this thread...the following news article from the Wildcats...

Note: If you access that link on a PC, the new article will bring up an image of Greg Hire & the card design, but to read the actual article you need to move the black square at the top right hand side (under the banner) as that is the scroll bar. Bit of an odd web design.
