Coach's Clock User Reviews

simple, no frills way to manage lineups on the fly

I'll compare contrast to:
"coach wizard" and "soccer dad", big difference is that "coaches clock" lets you prep a line up on the fly then do a bulk substitution... which is ideal when you're subbing 5 kids at once. "coach wizard" and "soccer dad", while more feature rich, requires subs to be done one by one which is annoying while the game is going.

I wish it did season tabulations, and tracked other stats (like assists, goals, saves, def stops, etc,.... the other apps do that), but for me, I'll take the all-at-once substitutions over stats tracking.

This app needs three things

Let me turn off seconds display. It's distracting and superfluous.

Add an easily-seen counter for the total number of on-field player cycles for each player (configurable to show or not show)

Let me erase from the screen (but bring back if needed, during the game) players that are injured or didn't show up (or are really late to practice).

Simple w/ no extras

Simple app for players and subs with time. Easy to swap players from sub to active but doesn't track position changes w/ subs . also has a log of all changes during game but not a clean report of total time in/out or any other bells or whistles. Only the basics and very simple

Great Assistant

I've been using this for a couple years now for my youth soccer teams. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic, easy to use app

The coach wanted player times in the field recorded ( we have rolling subs and a big squad) so I tried writing these down and then adding up the times - all very time consuming and inaccurate. So I went looking for an app and found coaches clock which was exactly what I needed - absolutely fantastic, so easy to use and times all there at the end of the game. Love it!

Update made it very hard to read

The update changed the text color to black, making it very hard to read. Was a lot easier to read player names in white text.

Perfect & Easy!

I wish I had found this years ago! Loaded on iPad in waterproof case and we are good to go for soccer season. At start of game I just show the ipad instead of yelling out eleven positioning instructions. Substitutions are clear and intuitive. The time tracking saves me from looking at the bench and wondering or having to ask who has been sitting the longest. Rec leagues usually require equal play time and with large teams that is an annoying challenge when you are also trying to direct the game.

Great app

This app is very simple but that's why it is so good. I've used this app for a season now and will continue to use it next. I tried other apps and found them difficult to use especially when players end up in the wrong positions or you need to quickly sub a player out. The simple nature of this app allows you to quickly make corrections. I also enjoy the freedom to place players down anywhere in any number or formation, this makes Coaches Clock more flexible than other player substitution apps.

Life Saver

I have been wracking my brain for a couple days now trying to come up with an easy efficient way of keeping track. I was writing all this down but found myself getting confused and missing important subs etc. This will really help!

I love this app. Makes running subs for basketball supremely easy!!
