About

CoachKeeper

Read full description

CoachKeeper is the essential sideline tool for grassroots sports coaches who believe every player deserves fair time on the field — and personalised feedback after the final whistle. **TRACK PLAYING TIME IN REAL TIME** Start a match, tap a player to toggle them on and off the field, and CoachKeeper handles the rest. Live equity indicators show at a glance who's getting their share of minutes — and who's been sitting too long. Period-end haptic and sound alerts keep you aware without breaking your focus on the game. **SEE WHO'S GETTING FAIR GAME TIME** Colour-coded equity badges flag when a player's time is drifting below the squad average — amber for low, red for very low. No spreadsheets, no mental arithmetic at half-time. **BUILD PERSONALISED PLAYER REPORTS** After the match, open any player's report and write context-specific notes in three sections: Match Observations, Areas to Improve, and Practice Focus. Smart quick-tags change based on which section you're writing in — one tap inserts the right kind of feedback. Share the finished report directly to parents via Messages, Email, or any app on your device. **REVIEW HISTORY ANYTIME** Every match is saved. Swipe right on any player in your roster to see their full history — time on field, equity status, and every report you've ever written for them. **BUILT FOR THE SIDELINE** High-contrast design means CoachKeeper is readable in direct sunlight. Large tap targets work with cold hands and gloves. Dark interface keeps battery life lean. **WORKS FOR ANY SPORT** Football, netball, basketball, hockey, AFL, rugby, or your own custom sport — CoachKeeper adapts to how your team plays. --- **Free tier includes:** • 1 team • Up to 10 players • 2 completed matches saved Unlock the full app once to get unlimited teams, unlimited players, and unlimited match history — forever.
