## What is Gaffer?

Gaffer runs your small-sided football team: who's playing, who's on next, the score, the stats and the highlights. Fives, sevens and everything in between.

BEFORE THE GAME
• Post the next game and let the squad say they're in, in goal or out
• A nudge for anyone who hasn't answered
• Add it to your calendar in one tap

ON MATCH DAY
• Pick who's playing and Gaffer plans the subs, from fair (everyone plays about the same) to going for the win
• A match clock that counts down to each change and tells you who's coming off
• Log goals, assists, saves and highlights with one tap, and the whole squad can follow the score
• Works with no signal at the pitch
• On an Apple Watch too: run the clock, feel a tap when subs are due and log goals from your wrist

AFTER THE FINAL WHISTLE
• Highlight reels cut on your iPhone from your GoPro or iPhone footage: every goal with the score, your badge and the match clock, like football on the telly
• Optional AI commentary over your reels
• Stats, form, match ratings, man of the match and who plays well together
• Share reels with the squad, or post your best moments

FOR THE WHOLE SQUAD
• Squad chat
• Player profiles with goals, assists and pinned clips
• Follow your teammates, and find other teams

Built by a gaffer who runs his own team with it every week.

GOAL OF THE WEEK
Put your team's best goal up each week and vote for the best on Gaffer.

BEAT EDITS
Turn a game into a reel cut to the beat, with flashes, slow-mo and a drop timed to the goal. Three tracks made for Gaffer, so it's never muted on Instagram. Use every moment, or just the best.
