Description
A pluck card is the raise-your-hand bidding paddle used at player auctions, team auctions and fundraisers. Each pluck card is printed on 5mm foamboard, measures 12 x 6 inches including the grip, and carries your team crest, logo, number or name on one side – light enough to hold up through a long auction, stiff enough to stay flat all day.
Where a pluck card is used
Cricket and football player auctions, corporate bidding rounds, charity auctions, college fests and quiz or game shows – anywhere every table needs its own clearly marked paddle. An auctioneer can read a raised pluck card from across the hall, so bids are picked up quickly and there is no confusion over which team has bid. Most teams keep the card afterwards as a souvenir of the day.
Material and size
Each card is printed single side on 5mm foamboard and cut to 12 inches high by 6 inches wide, with the grip forming part of the card, so no separate handle or stick is needed. Foamboard suits this job well – it is rigid like a board but a fraction of the weight of acrylic or MDF, so it stays comfortable in the hand through a long session. If you need a different size or a heavier board, write to us and we will quote for it. You can see our other foam board work in the foam board cutout listing, and recent jobs on our Instagram page.
