Keep track of your players' time on the field with Coach's Clock. Designed with input from a youth soccer coach who manages multiple teams each season, Coach's Clock is a very simple application that runs on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. It keeps track of all of the players on your team, where they are supposed to be on the field, and how long they've been playing since they were last substituted into the game. Just enter in your team name and your player roster. Drag your players on and off the field and tap the clock to start it running. Players on the field accrue elapsed time. Players off the field do not. It's that simple. What Coach's Clock does: * It tracks how much time has elapsed in the current play period. * It tracks the position of every player on your team. * It keeps track of how long each player has been on the field. * It helps you plan player substitutions. * It has field backgrounds for basketball, field hockey, football, hockey and soccer but it could also be used for any similar sport. * It supports an unlimited number of teams. * It has detailed usage instructions right inside the app. * It's a "universal app" so one purchase is good for all your iDevices! What it doesn't do: * Coach's Clock doesn't force you to keep the app running throughout your game. You are free to close it, open other apps, take phone calls, or whatever you like. You only need to run it when you want to refer to it or when you need to make a change. The clocks keep time even when the app isn't running. * Coach's Clock is not a replacement for your whiteboard or playbook. (There are plenty of other fine apps which can do that for you.) Coach's Clock may seem like a pretty simple app, and it is! But that's the beauty of it. It doesn't try to do everything for you; instead it tries to do a few essential things very well. It doesn't try to change the way you coach your team; it just makes your job a little easier.

More info & how-to videos: http://intellicoach.tech The perfect app for youth recreational sports coaches. Say goodbye to frantically reworking your paper-and-pencil lineup on the sideline, and instead spend the game coaching your players and helping them improve. intelli.coach does more than keep track of substitutions, it uses artificial intelligence to suggest optimized and customizable substitutions based on the skill level of the players. These suggestions provide a strategic advantage throughout the game, while also ensuring fair playing time. Suggested lineups balance the skill level of players on the field throughout the game, and also finish the game strong (maximizing the strength of players in the game during the last portion of the game). Players are ranked by offensive and defensive skill, with the ability to change these rankings throughout the season based on player performance. Players who arrive late or leave early seamlessly fit into the lineup. If a player gets injured or tired mid-period, intelli.coach recommends a strategic replacement from the bench. The information-rich, readable in-game screen shows time elapsed, current lineup, and recommended next lineup. Color coding enables easy identification of players entering and leaving the game during substitutions. Mid-game notifications (sent 1 minute before and at the time of each substitution) ensure you always know when your next substitution is approaching. For soccer games, intelli.coach creates optimal positional lineups based on player skill level. Switch between three different lineup modes based on game circumstances. Start on balanced mode to spread your players evenly across the field, then switch to offensive mode when you need a goal, and defensive mode when you’re trying to control a lead. intelli.coach supports all sports by using the IntelliCoaching algorithm, which has multiple modes based on coaching preference. Low mode gives all players in attendance relatively equal playing time, and high mode plays everyone at least half the game while giving higher skilled players more playing time. Let intelli.coach revolutionize your coaching experience: making substitutions easier, providing a strategic advantage, and keeping playtime fair. Terms of Use: http://intellicoach.tech/terms
