About

Foot8

Foot8 is the app for organizing and managing your private five-a-side football leagues with friends, from player call-ups to the final standings. Create a league, invite players with a code, and add temporary participants too. You can assign roles, schedule matches with date, time, location, and duration, collect attendance from invited players, and let each player respond with confirmed, maybe, or declined. When you do not know when to play, you can create a poll, suggest multiple dates and times, add different durations, and see who voted for each option. Once the participants are confirmed, Foot8 helps you create balanced teams, choose shirt colors, and set either a fixed goalkeeper or a rotating goalkeeper. After the match, you can enter the result, goal scorers, and MVP. The app updates statistics, recent results, attendance, wins, goals, and each player’s performance. Each player has a personal card with an Overall rating, statistics, and progress over time. The rankings are individual, not team-based, so you can track each participant’s performance in the league. Foot8 also includes operational notifications, upcoming matches, opening the location in maps, and player card theme customization.

Hai mai schierato te stesso al fanta? Con Panka, il fanta scende in campo con la tua vera squadra. Non schieri i campioni della Serie A: schieri te stesso e i tuoi compagni di squadra, quelli con cui giochi ogni settimana. Prima di ogni partita fai la tua fanta-formazione. A fine gara il mister mette le pagelle e l'app calcola i punteggi: se chi hai schierato prende un bel voto e fa bonus, tu scali la classifica dello spogliatoio. COME FUNZIONA PANKA 
• Entra nella tua squadra: registrati e unisciti al tuo gruppo con il codice d'invito. Ognuno ha un ruolo e un costo in crediti. 
 • Fai la fanta-formazione: prima del fischio d'inizio, scegli chi schierare rispettando il budget. Puoi tentare la giocata e sbloccare punti extra con i modificatori tattici. 
 • Scopri i voti: il coach o l'admin inserisce le pagelle della partita. L'app calcola tutto in automatico con i voti, i gol e le penalità. 
 • Scala la classifica: accumula punti partita dopo partita e prenditi il primo posto nello spogliatoio. PER I COACH E GLI ADMIN
