I am working on an agreement with a youth football league fro T&I and action. They have mentioned that other leagues have small yearbook they sell to the parents each year. Does anyone have experience with such a project? Can anyone give me some leads on where to get these designed or printed?

I do Sports yearbook's for a few High Schools that give them out to the Seniors as gifts and Parents buy from me. I use MyPublisher, but there are many places doing this. I think you need to get a sample of last year's and see because there are two many variables.

Black & White/Color?
Size?
By Team or whole league?
Format?
etc etc

For example in mine the Seniors on the team get two pages, and everyone else gets one page. Except for Football seniors get two pages and the rest best of the bunch. I also design them myself all places offer free software. In MyPublisher there is an auto populate button once you have chose the pictures it randomly places them.

They are looking for an 8x10 size book. A mix of color & Black and white. I have looked at MyPublisher, Blurb and a few others. It's hard to tell online but the quality doesnt look that great. I know these are not going to be high end because they will cost too much. I was wondering if there were any other labs out there that were offering them. Thanks.

Blurb quality is pretty good, if you take the time to upload full res images. We used it for the POTN books, & the ones in my sig, so I suggest that you invest $30 & see for yourself.
