What’s on the board

Both teams and the ball

Two teams in your colours, a ball and cones for drills, with numbers or names on every player.

Runs, passes, dribbles, zones

The marks coaches use, in six colours, drawn by dragging. Zones sit under the players so everything stays readable.

11 v 11 to 5 v 5

Pitch sizes for every format, so a 7 v 7 session looks like the pitch your team plays on.

Half-pitch view

Zoom to the attacking half for set pieces, build-up patterns and finishing drills.

How do I draw a pass or a run?

Can I save my tactics?
