“Splitting 14 kids into fair teams used to take the whole warm-up. Now it takes ten seconds and nobody complains.”
“For the first time every player got the same minutes — and the parents actually noticed. That means everything at this age.”
“The watch tells me when to sub. I can finally keep my head up and watch the kids play instead of the clock.”
Placeholder testimonials from coaches
How it works
Three taps from chaos to a fair matchday
Pick who's here
Tap the players who showed up today. One tap each, or “all on/off”. Done in seconds.
Get fair teams or a sub plan
The app balances teams by skill, or builds a full rotation so every kid gets equal minutes.
Coach — it keeps track
It counts minutes, suggests subs and records goals. You just watch the game and cheer.
Everything a matchday needs
Built around the real problems on the sideline
“Half the squad shows up, the other half is a surprise every week.”
Your whole squad, one tap to set attendance
See every player with their position (K, F, M, A) and a 1–4 skill level. Tap absent players off, mark who's present, and add a guest player when a friend tags along.
- Positions and 1–4 skill levels for every player
- “All on”, present count and A–Z sorting
- Add guest players on the fly for one session
- Jump straight to Start training or a Tournament
“Making fair teams at training takes forever and the kids complain.”
Balanced sides, no more arguments
Tick off who came, and the Balanced mode splits them evenly by skill so every team is roughly the same strength. Random, Differentiated and Manual modes are one tap away.
- Balanced, Random, Diff. and Manual splitting
- Team strength shown as player count and average level
- Shuffle to reshuffle, or drag players between teams
- Hide level to keep ratings off the kids’ screens
“Some weeks it's a 2‑team scrimmage, other weeks a mini‑league.”
Two to six teams, instantly
Pick anywhere from 2 to 6 teams and the app rebalances on the spot. Each side gets a color and a name the kids recognise, ready to send straight into a match plan.
- Choose 2–6 teams with a single tap
- Instant rebalancing when you change the count
- Colored, named teams (Lions, Knights, Predators…)
- Straight through to the match plan when you’re set
“An ordinary Tuesday practice could be so much more fun.”
Round‑robin fixtures with quick scoring
The app builds a full round‑robin schedule so every team plays every team. A built‑in timer with 3/5/10‑minute presets keeps rounds moving, and +/- buttons score each match in a tap.
- Automatic round‑robin schedule, grouped by round
- Match timer with 3, 5 and 10‑minute presets
- Tap +/- to score right on each fixture card
- Add a new round or switch to a knockout bracket
“Tournament standings end up on scraps of paper.”
Live standings, updated as you score
Every score you tap in updates the table instantly — points, wins/draws/losses and goal difference, sorted automatically. No spreadsheets, no mental arithmetic.
- Points, W/D/L and goal difference per team
- Re‑sorts the moment a score changes
- Color‑coded rows match the team colors
- Crown a winner or roll into a knockout
“Some kids barely get to play — and I can't do the math mid‑match.”
One tap generates the whole sub plan
Choose your format and formation, then let the substitution engine build the rotation. Set the goal to Equal playtime and everyone finishes on the same minutes — automatically.
- Auto or Manual subs, auto or fixed intervals
- Rotate per match or per period
- Equal playtime or Min/Max targets
- Generate the full plan before kickoff
“I never know who's coming off next until it's already too late.”
Preview the whole match on a timeline
Drag along the timeline to see the exact lineup at any minute, with every planned substitution laid out in order. Adjust, copy or add swaps until it's exactly how you want it.
- Scrub the timeline to preview any moment
- Full list of planned subs with timestamps
- Per‑player minutes shown on the pitch
- Copy or add substitutions, then Start match
“I forget the goals, the minutes, the subs I planned.”
Score, subs and every player's minutes — live
A big scoreboard with one‑tap goals, a live period timer and a “next sub” countdown. Live minutes tick on every player token, and you log goals and cards on whoever earned them.
- One‑tap goals, live timer, pause and end period
- Live minutes per player, keeper handled separately
- “Next sub in” countdown so nobody is forgotten
- Tap a substitute to swap them straight in
“My formations and set pieces only live in my head.”
Formations from 5v5 to 11v11
Pick a format, name your shape and place every player with their number and position. Add arrows for runs, then export or save the tactic to reuse it match after match.
- Formats from 5v5 up to 11v11
- Numbered, positioned players (K, VB, MB, S…)
- Draw movement arrows across the pitch
- Export as an image or save to your library
“I've no easy way to sketch a drill and pass it on.”
Cones, runs and passes in seconds
A drawing editor made for training: drop players, opponents, jokers, balls and cones, then draw movement arrows and dashed passing runs. Build a library of drills you can reuse.
- Players, opponents, jokers, balls and cones
- Solid arrows for runs, dashed lines for passes
- Move tool to reposition anything on the pitch
- Save drills and share them with the club
“With everything going on, I just miss the moment to sub.”
Big, clear alerts when it's time
When a substitution is due, a full‑screen alert shows exactly who comes off and who goes on, with a countdown you can't miss. Confirm when it's done, or cancel if plans change — and it's mirrored to your wrist.
- Full‑screen alert with a countdown
- Shows the exact player out and player in
- Confirm done or cancel in one tap
- Mirrored to Apple Watch so the phone stays away
…and the same alert on your wrist
Coach from your Apple Watch
The same substitution alerts, score and match timer live on your wrist. Confirm a sub with a tap and get back to watching the kids play. Optional — the app is fully featured without it.
- Live match time and score on your wrist
- A gentle tap when it’s time to sub
- Confirm the substitution without the phone
