Rugby coaching, session planning and team selection

Know your squad before you pick the side.

See who’s available, where you need front-row cover and who’s due a rest. Plan the session, publish the team sheet and keep Saturday’s notes ready for the next training night.

Club web trial: 30 days free, card required. Mobile apps are coming for 2027/28.

Before training and selection

Replies, selection checks and the register.

Start with the squad you’ve actually got. See replies by position, review the checks and record who trained.

Availability

See where you have cover

View replies by position, spot gaps early and remind everyone who has not answered in one go.

Selection

Check the side before you publish it

Check registration, age grade, front-row cover and rest flags before the team sheet reaches players.

Attendance

See who made it to training

Mark attendance on your phone, look back across the season and check in with a player who’s missed a few sessions.

From the touchline to training

Use Saturday’s notes on Tuesday night.

Keep the scores, substitutions and playing time with the fixture. Bring that record into your next session plan.

Match day

Record the game as it happens

Give one reporter the match log. They can tap or speak to record events and send score updates to supporters while connected. If reception drops, offline events sync when it returns. The coaching team can review cards, substitutions and minutes against the same fixture afterwards.

  • Log scores, cards and substitutions from the touchline
  • Use voice input and a built-in sin-bin timer
  • Keep player minutes and match-card exports with the fixture
Coaching

Build the next session from drills you know

Choose drills for the age group and contact level, set the timings and organise groups from attendance. Reuse last week’s plan or start with a drill from your club library. Save plays, diagrams and short clips where the other coaches can find them.

  • Build and reuse age-appropriate session plans
  • Review shared short clips with the score and clock included
  • Build a shared club playbook with diagrams and clips
Fitness and wellbeing

Keep track of training between club sessions

Set gym and pitch work, then review the squad’s training totals and wellbeing check-ins before planning the next session. Players can connect the workouts they already track and choose what to share; raw heart and sleep data stays on their phone.

  • Set a simple gym and pitch plan for the squad
  • Count workouts from Apple Health or Health Connect when a player chooses to connect
  • See the totals and trends players agree to share
Player development

Keep the next step with the player.

Agree a goal, record feedback and look back at playing time. The next coach can pick up where the last session left off.

Set a goal for the next few weeks

Agree what to work on with the player and record shared feedback. Keep internal coaching notes separate from the player’s view.

Hand over to the next coach

Keep the player’s goals and progress available to authorised coaches when they change squad or age group.

Check minutes before the next selection

See playing time across the season and plan rotations before kick-off. Use the record when discussing opportunities with players and parents.

Age-grade rugby and welfare

Check the cover. Record the handover.

Review adult ratios, first-aid cover and player rest flags before the session. Keep a record of who arrived and who collected each child.

Check-in and check-out

Tap children in as they arrive and out as they leave, with the guardian or authorised adult who collected them recorded.

Review the session checks

Check adult ratios, the two-adult rule, first-aid cover and weather prompts before the group gets under way.

See a player’s rest flags

Review recorded restrictions before selecting a player. Access to medical details follows the club’s permissions.

Before you bring the coaching team in

Does the club pay separately for each coach?

No. Club plans include the coaching tools and access for your coaches, alongside membership, availability, welfare and payments. Coaches work from the club’s existing player records, so a change of squad doesn’t mean starting a second record. See what both club plans include.

Can we reuse sessions across the age groups?

Yes. Keep drills in the club library, build and reuse session plans, and share plays and diagrams in the club playbook. Each coach can choose drills and contact levels for their own group, while player goals and feedback stay with the player’s record.
