The practice planner adds up your minutes against the gym time you booked
You lay out blocks with real minutes on your practice plan, attach a drill where a block needs one, and the running total sits against the gym time you actually booked. When the practice runs long the planner tells you on Monday night rather than at 5:40 on Tuesday, which is the only time you can still move a block.
-
01
Ten minutes over, and the total says so
Every line on the schedule carries its own minutes, and the total is measured against the 4:00 to 5:30 you booked. Your install keeps its twenty minutes instead of losing them to a warm up that ran long.
-
02
Every drill brings its diagram onto the sheet
You drop Shell drill 4v4 into the 4:10 slot, and the printed sheet carries the diagram, the three coaching points and the directions you wrote when you saved the drill. An assistant reads the sheet instead of asking you.

03
Practice planning on one page, and in your pocket
Schedule on the left, resources on the right, with a fold down the middle. Announcements, the daily emphasis and room for notes are already printed on the page.
-
04
Rewrite the drill in January, November still says what you ran
When you finalise a practice, the directions and coaching points are copied onto the sheet and frozen there. Change the drill four months later and the old plan is untouched, so a season of practices is a record of what you actually ran.
Usually the night before
And usually later than you meant.
- Planning Tuesday when last Tuesday is a good starting point
- Handing an assistant a sheet instead of an explanation
- Keeping a season of practices you can look back through
- Making sure your install gets its twenty minutes, not whatever is left
One tool for each job
Questions coaches ask
- Does it store player names or contact details?
- No. There are no rosters and no player records at all. A team is a name and a colour, so there is no personal data here to protect.
- Can I print the practice plan or save it as a PDF?
- Yes. Print it, or choose Save as PDF in the print window to send it to an assistant. One page carries the schedule, the announcements, the daily emphasis and space for notes, with the drill pages behind it.
- Can I reuse last week without rebuilding it?
- Yes. Copy last week's plan, change the one block that is different, and this week's practice plan is done in a few minutes.
- Do I have to fill in every block?
- No. A block can be a title and a time. Add detail where it matters and the rest prints as a ruled line you can write on.
- Can I see what we actually worked on this season?
- Yes. Reports count only the practices that happened, per team and per season, so you can see where the minutes really went.
You are going to draw it again anyway.
