Playbook maker for coaches
Print the whole book in one job, or save it as one PDF.
Every player gets the same book, in the order you teach it
ClickPlays is the playbook builder for coaches. You draw plays in the play creator and file each one in a playbook. The playbook maker keeps them in your order, so the first page is the first thing you teach and the last page is the wrinkle you add in February. When it is time to hand it out, the playbook software prints every play, every step, one card each, in one print job.

01
One book prints in one job
Twenty plays with three steps each is sixty cards, and one click prints all sixty in your order. Each card carries the play name, and the first card of each play carries your call.
-
02
Your call prints on the first card
Each play has a call, and it sits on the first card of the play. The sheet says what you shout and the steps say what happens next. One call runs the whole sequence.

03
Copy the book, keep the original
Duplicate a playbook in one click. Last season stays as it was, and this season starts from it instead of from nothing.
-
04
A book per team, colour coded
Varsity in one colour, JV in another, the youth team in a third. Each book has its own colour, its own order, and its own print job.
Usually the week someone new arrives
A new assistant, a new season, a new team that needs the whole thing by Tuesday.
- Handing the offense to an assistant as one book instead of forty texts
- Printing the install in the order you teach it, not the order you drew it
- Starting this season from last season without losing either
- Keeping varsity, JV and youth in separate books
One tool for each job
Draw a play your team can actually read, one step per beat instead of twelve arrows on one picture.
- They ran it wrong on Tuesday.
- A play runs three to six steps, and each step shows only what moves on that beat. Nobody has to decode the whole play at once.
- I cannot remember why we set that screen.
- The coaching point sits on the frame it explains, not in a paragraph underneath. It is still there in November.
- My assistant missed practice.
- One play to a page, a whole playbook in one job, or a PDF. Printing is included on every plan.
Plan a practice that fits the gym time you actually have, then print the sheet that runs it.
- We ran out of time again.
- Every block gets minutes, and the running total sits against your practice window. The plan tells you it is long before the gym does.
- What was that drill called?
- A block points at a drill from your bank, and the drill brings its diagram and coaching points onto the printed sheet with it.
- I rebuilt last week from scratch.
- Copy the plan and change one block. Tuesday takes minutes when last Tuesday is already there.
Keep a drill with its diagram attached, so you explain it once instead of every season.
- I explain this one every single time.
- The drill keeps its diagram, so an assistant reads it instead of asking you.
- Which version did we run last year?
- Variations live with the parent drill instead of turning into four near-identical entries in a list.
- Is this right for 8-year-olds?
- Each drill carries the age group and team level it suits, as a floor rather than a bracket.
