Where did that corner routine go?

Every coach owns a tactics board. The board remembers nothing.

The magnetic board: one shape at a time, wiped by the next conversation.
The board in the bag

The magnetic board shows one formation at a time and remembers none of them. The corner routine you walked through on Saturday lives nowhere: the next team talk wipes it, and next Saturday you rebuild it from memory, magnet by magnet.

The app that keeps crashing!

The tactics apps have their own reputation: sessions lost to crashes, no undo, and licenses locked to one device, so the plan you built on the laptop is not on the phone you brought to the pitch.

Tuesday, 9pm

You coach after work. The session plan is the last job of the night, and drawing one activity by hand takes longer than running it. Most weeks the plan stays in your head, and practice starts with you inventing it on the walk over.

The board was never the problem. Losing the work was.

ClickPlays is a tactics board with a memory. Draw on a real pitch, the IFAB 105 x 68 with true boxes and arcs, or the small-sided frames your age group actually plays: 9v9, 7v7, 4v4. Runs are solid, passes are dashed, a dribble is the wavy line, a shot ends in a target: the same grammar as every coaching board. Every drawing saves to your playbook with its own name, and prints clean.

  1. Set pieces are plays

    Corners and free kicks decide close matches and get the least board time. Draw each routine once, name it, and walk the runs on a printed sheet instead of rebuilding magnets.

  2. The pitch matches the age group

    Four frames ship: 11v11 (FIFA 105 x 68), 9v9, 7v7 and 4v4, the US Soccer small-sided formats. A 7v7 activity draws on a 7v7 pitch, not a shrunken full field.

  3. Saved, not wiped

    Every diagram lives in your playbook with a name. Change the routine and the sheet updates; nothing depends on one device, one app install, or one photo of a whiteboard.

Sessions your players can read

Draw the activity on the frame it uses: a passing pattern on the 7v7 pitch, cones where the gates go, arrows in the grammar players already know from the board. Print the session and coach from the page instead of your memory.

Unlimited plays on the free plan, so every corner, pattern and activity you own gets drawn, not just the first two. If your first diagram does not come out cleaner than the photo of your whiteboard, close the tab and you have lost nothing.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is the soccer tactics board free?
Yes. ClickPlays runs in the browser: a playbook with unlimited plays, the play editor, saving, printing, and sharing. No credit card required.
Is the pitch regulation size?
Yes. The 11v11 pitch is the FIFA-recommended 105 x 68 metres, with the true IFAB interior: 16.5m penalty areas, the penalty arc, 9.15m centre circle and corner arcs. The 9v9, 7v7 and 4v4 frames follow the US Soccer small-sided sizes.
Can I draw corners and free kicks?
Yes. A set piece is a play: place the takers and runners, draw each run solid and the delivery dashed, and save the routine under its own name. Steps hold the variations.
Can I draw training activities and drills?
Yes. Cones, a ball and a coach marker are built in, and the small-sided frames fit rondos and pattern play. Draw the activity once and reuse it session after session.
Do my players need accounts to see the plays?
No. Print the sheet or export a PDF and hand it out. Online sharing is for your staff, who sign in free for read-only access.
