  • Renders all fifteen starters, numbered 1 to 15 from loosehead prop through fullback, over a pitch background.
  • Square, portrait and story crops sized for Instagram, WhatsApp status and X posts.
  • Team name, opponent, competition and matchday fields for club or league graphics.
  • A captain armband marker and your primary/secondary club colors.
  • One-click PNG export at publish-ready resolution.

From lineup to matchday graphic in rugby

  1. Set your starting XV and formation in the rugby lineup maker first.
  2. Open the starting XV graphic maker — it picks up that lineup automatically.
  3. Pick square, portrait or story depending on where you're posting.
  4. Fill in opponent, matchday and colors, and mark the captain if there is one.
  5. Export the PNG and publish it before kick-off.

Who uses it

  • Club and university teams posting the XV before every fixture.
  • Team social-media volunteers who need a consistent look without a designer.
  • Academies sending families a clear graphic of who's starting.
  • Schools and youth rugby clubs producing matchday team sheets.

Why rugby gets its own graphic instead of a generic template

Rugby starts fifteen across two very different groups — forwards who contest scrums and lineouts, backs who run the ball wide — and the standard 1-15 numbering means the graphic has to place each of them correctly, not just drop fifteen dots on a pitch. The layout keeps that shirt-number order so anyone who knows the sport can read the team sheet at a glance.
