Wooden Honours Boards

The price depends on the size and shape of the board. Larger boards are more expensive than smaller boards, and flat top boards are cheaper than gable top or curved top boards.

It doesn’t matter how many names you want on your new honours board, it’s all the same price. So whether you want to one name or a hundred, we’re delighted to be able to say “It’s the same price”.

We only need a few pieces of information from you in order to e mail a quote to you.

Firstly, we need to know what text you would like included on the board.
It doesn’t have to be a full list of names. Just a simple explanation like “we need a column for the year and then 3 columns for winners. Each winners column will have a single persons name in it. We’d also like to have space for 100 entries going forward and our club logo”.

Secondly, if you have a requirement for a particular shape, wooden board finish or solid oak mouldings to try and match existing boards (details below) please let us know.

Please notify us if you have any size limitations for where the board will be installed too. Otherwise, we can create a board in any shape and size you like!

Once you’re ready to go ahead with an order we will need a list of any achievement / winners to be displayed on the wooden boards and it would be appreciated if this is supplied as an excel or word file. However, this is not required in order to get a quote.

Short answer: Definitely not.

Longer answer: When you’re ready to order we produce a design proof showing how your honours boards will look. We have a fully equiped art dept , with a great eye for detail, who will take care of drawing up the board design for you.

If you wish us to add any club crests etc onto the honour boards, then we will of course need you to send those through to us please. Again, our art dept can assist with this.

The colour of the text should contrast to the background of the honours boards. For lighter boards, the use of black text is an obvious choice.  Gold tends to blend into the colour of the wood as can be seen in the photograph opposite. On darker woods, gold, white or creme text really pops out, whereas black then disappears.

Text in the photo is :- creme text at the top, black text underneath, gold text underneath the black and then white text at the bottom

• Light Colours – Matt black text stands out very well against the light wood.
• Medium Dark Colours – Cream or white text is best vs background. Gold can be used if going for a medium oak stain or darker.
• Dark colours – Gold really stands out, as does white and creme.  Black text should be avoided in this instance.

Short answer: We can get close but without the honours board being here it’s impossible to get an exact match.

Longer answer: It’s not easy to make honours boards that exactly match someone else’s work without the honour boards being here with us. Photographs are a great help, but they’re far from a reliable source for colour matching. Consider if the sun is on the board when you snap your photo, and then take a second shot without it being in the sun. The colors of the two images will be very different.

It’s also extremely time consuming to make matching honours boards, so would need to be considered carefully. However, we can certainly assist with your honours board needs and offer professional advise if you decide to go down this route.

We always provide a design proof with every order. The proof demonstrates how the board will look. We send you these by email so you can zoom in and check every tiny detail.
We don’t start manufacture until you’re completely happy with everything.

We keep a record of all the honour boards we’ve produced in the past. If you need to display any new names / records of achievement then please let us know and we can manufacture the new details and get them delivered direct to you for a small cost. They’re easy to apply and many sports clubs choose this way as a cost effective means of updating the honours boards.
We also have a short instructional guide to help if you’re unfamiliar with the process, or this video which shows how to update your honours board may help.
