Sub Wizard
Read full descriptionHide full description
The substitution planner built for youth basketball coaches. Get fair playing time, every game, without the mental math — automated rotations that account for absences, player rules, and minutes on the fly. How it works 1. Add your roster — that's it. Sub Wizard automatically calculates how often players rotate, so every game has a fair rotation from day one. 2. Add your own rules, whenever you want. Got a player who should always start? A player to designate less minutes? Set a rule once, and every future lineup enforces it automatically. 3. Take full control — if you want. Level up your coaching strategy by turning off auto mode and dialing in every number yourself. 4. Gameday is where the magic happens. Expecting seven players and only six show up? Tap who's absent on the Gameday tab, and your rotation recalculates instantly — no re-planning, no stress. 5. Watch the game and enjoy. Without Sub Wizard, your brain was always running the numbers — who's due for a rest, who's been on too long, who's up next. With Sub Wizard, you get to actually watch your team play and make better in-game coaching decisions.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Melbourne Storm at none against Sub Wizard's 1. Sub Wizard's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
