Default Field Stickers

The thickness of the sticker makes all of the difference. If the sticker is a millimeter too thick, it can be the difference between your players moving across its edges smoothly or getting stuck at that spot. Believe it or not, how a base is tweaked can cause a base to get hung up on the edges of the sticker as well. The tips of tweaked base prongs become flimsy after tweaking. Prongs in that condition are prone to getting hung up. Prongs that are more rigid like that of an untweaked base have an easier time moving over the sticker’s edges. If you make it past that hurdle, then it will work.

If it were my board, I wouldn’t do a sticker. I would have a board done with all of the graphics of my choice.

Default Decal paper

I don't have much experience with it, but I would use a water slide decal paper. You print your logo, let it dry, apply Krylon acrylic clear coat on it. Once the clear coat is dry you place your sticker in center field or the end zone. Usually, after all the art work is done, your clearcoat the entire playing surface.

Default Decals

Why bother with all that work, put down a full vinyl cover with exactly what you want on it and the players run like their on glass.
I'll make it for you,
