A drill that is easy to understand
Your drills, with the diagram attached.
Coaching points, directions, variations, and the age it suits.

from youth travel teams to varsity programs
A drill written as a paragraph gets re-explained every time
A drill with a diagram does not. Each one keeps a single picture, the two or three coaching points you say out loud every time, the directions, and any variations. It is the same drill next season as it was this one, and it is the same drill in your hands as in your assistant's.
-
01
One diagram, borrowed from a play
Everything you draw is a play, and a drill borrows one. There is no second drawing tool to learn and no second library to keep in step with the first.
-
02
Two or three coaching points, not paragraphs
The ones you say every single time. They print with the drill, and they are the first line an assistant reads.
-
03
Variations live with the drill
Run it harder, smaller, or with a constraint added. A variation sits with its parent instead of becoming four near-identical entries you have to tell apart in a list.
-
04
Pick a drill by sight, not from memory
Building a practice, your whole bank sits beside the plan unfiltered. You pick the drill you want by recognising it, instead of trying to remember what you called it three months ago.
Explain the drill once, not every season!
Write the drill down properly one time and the sheet does the explaining after that.
- Building a practice out of drills you already trust
- Handing a drill to an assistant who has never run it
- Keeping the version that worked, not the one you half remember
- Finding a drill that suits the age you are actually coaching
One tool for each job
Questions coaches ask
- Does a drill need a diagram?
- No. A drill can be directions and coaching points alone. Attaching a play you already drew is what stops it being re-explained.
- Do drills have their own timings?
- No. A drill has no fixed length, because the same drill runs 5 minutes one week and 15 the next. The minutes are set when you place it in a practice.
- Can I make my own categories?
- Yes. Each sport starts with researched categories and focuses, and you can add, rename or remove them. They belong to your account, not to us.
- Do drills print with the practice plan?
- Yes. When a practice uses a drill, that drill prints behind the plan with its diagram, coaching points and directions. Nothing to look up in the gym.
- Can I tell which drills suit younger teams?
- Yes. Every drill carries an age group and a team level, treated as a floor rather than a bracket, so a drill for 10-year-olds still shows for 12-year-olds.
You are going to draw it again anyway.
