NBL27 card collection

Meet your Phoenix

Collect a player card at every game you go to and it unlocks here. Every game you go to is one entry into the draw for a jersey signed by the whole team.

Membership desk. Collect this week's player card at the membership desk. Missed cards from earlier games can be picked up there too.

How the prize draw works

  1. 01 · Go to a game

    Collect that game's card at the membership desk. That's 1 entry into the prize draw.

  2. 02 · Missed one? Catch up

    Pick up cards from earlier games at any later game. They fill your binder, but don't add entries.

  3. 03 · Win the signed jersey

    Grand prize: a Phoenix jersey signed by the whole team.

One game = one entry

Go to 9 games and you have 9 entries. Go to 4 and you have 4. You can pick up the cards you missed at a later game to complete your binder, but that game still only counts as 1 entry.
