PLAY CREATOR

Draw, animate and share plays in seconds

A drag-and-drop play editor that is fun to use and easy to learn. Drag players & actions on the court, watch them animate automatically, and share with your team in one click.

Animation that does the explaining for you

Every play you draw animates on its own. Your players will follow the action far more easily than arrows on a static diagram. The result: less re-explaining, more coaching.

Share with a link, no login required

Send a simple link to a player, parent or assistant. They open it in any browser and watch the animated play right away. No app, no account, no friction.

Every feature, on every device

Desktop in the office, iPad on the bench, phone at the gym. The full play editor everywhere, with a UI designed specifically for each screen size — and the App Store and Google Play ratings to back it up.

ROTATION MAKER

The easiest way to plan your substitutions before tip-off

An intuitive drag-and-drop editor that lets you visualize every player's minutes at a glance. Plan your subs the night before and coach with a clear head, instead of doing the math on the bench.

Equal minutes in one click

For youth and development teams, distribute playing time evenly across the whole roster instantly so every player gets their fair share on the floor.

Find lineups that work

For competitive programs, plan the lineups on the court so scoring and defense are always in balance, quarter after quarter.

Use it your way on game day

Pull up the sub sheet on your phone, print it as a PDF for the bench, or load it into the interactive Substitution Manager to track every change live.

PRACTICE PLANNER

Planning practices doesn't have to be a chore

A smart & powerful practice planner, with plays and drills pulled straight from your library. Add videos, images or voice memos to any time slot that needs the extra context.

Plan practice in minutes, with zero hassle

Skip the blank page. Just fill in your drills and durations and you'll get a beautifully formatted practice plan. What used to take an hour now takes a few minutes.

All your plays and drills, one click away

Attach animated plays and drills straight from your library to any slot of the plan. No more exporting plays as static images, screenshotting diagrams, or copy-pasting them between tools.

An interactive practice plan, not a static spreadsheet

Attach YouTube clips, your own videos and voice memos to any slot. Get a clean overview at a glance, then dive into the details with a single click.
