Your points, drawn on the field — so you can see where they are actually won and lost. Every move off the break becomes a directional line on a true-to-scale field, and the thicker the line, the more often that move gets made: a team's habits show up as the heavy arrows. Bunker usage fills in as a heat map beside it, and kills and eliminations are colour-coded, so where you're dangerous and where you're getting caught separate immediately. Paintball Coach reads an opponent's records exactly as it reads your own. Which breakouts still work — theirs and yours — stops being a matter of opinion. SEE IT BEFORE YOU BUILD ANYTHING Open the app and there's a finished event waiting — a real layout with real points on it. Tap straight into the charts and see what it does before you record anything. EVERY PLAYER, NOT JUST THE TEAM Tap through to any player for kills, eliminations, points played and K/D — on your roster or your opponent's. See who's trading up and who's getting caught early, point after point, instead of guessing from memory. SCOUT ANY TEAM'S GO-TO BREAKOUT Full bunker sets, ranked by how often each team ran them, with the formation drawn on the field rather than listed as names. Line yours up against theirs and the pattern is immediate: which sides get run, which get abandoned, and what keeps getting punished. WHERE THE NUMBERS COME FROM Record a point with both teams' line-ups on one field. Tap a player for a kill, an elimination or a penalty, and drag their marker to the bunker they moved to; a breakout on its own takes seconds. Everything above is built from those taps — nothing is reconstructed afterwards from memory or a notebook. POINT PLAYBACK Every recorded point plays back move by move, both teams together on one field, in the order it actually happened. Scrub the timeline and review the game with your team instead of pulling up raw notes. FIELD EDITOR Build and adjust field layouts by hand, right on your device. Place bunkers, name them, and fine-tune positions to match a field you're about to play. Real 2026 tournament layouts are built in too — NXL and the other major leagues — so you can drill on the exact field you'll play next. YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE Teams, players, layouts, breakouts and points are stored on your iPhone or iPad. Nothing you record is uploaded to us. There are no accounts and no passwords either — open the app and start recording. Reading back everything you've already recorded is free, permanently; a subscription covers recording new breakouts and points. Paintball Coach is built for teams that want to turn practice reps into real data — which points are won and lost where, what breakouts you actually run, and what to drill next.
