What is Pitch Planner?

Learn what Pitch Planner is, who it helps, and how youth soccer coaches use it for lineups, substitutions, equal minutes, rosters, attendance, and match-day notes.

Pitch Planner is a browser-based app for youth soccer coaches. It helps you set lineups, track substitutions, keep player minutes honest, manage the roster, and share team updates without turning match day into clipboard math.

What can you do with it?

Match Day and Team Manager

  • Track playing time with a live match clock and automatic per-player minute tracking
  • Record goals, assists, cards, saves, and substitutions during the game with simple two-tap actions
  • Build lineups with formation diagrams and saved templates
  • Plan rotations with automatic substitution intervals and bench time alerts
  • Track attendance for practices and events (up to 50 events)
  • View season stats — minutes, goals, assists, cards, and saves aggregated across all matches
  • Post-match features — player of the match, penalty shootout tracking, position heatmap
  • Export summaries as PDF or CSV
  • Share updates with parents via a public team feed link — no login required
  • Invite coaches and managers to share match-day duties (up to 2 coaches, 3 managers per team)

Who is it for?

Pitch Planner is built for people trying to keep a youth soccer team organized:

  • Youth coaches tracking equal playing time and managing rosters
  • Team managers running match-day operations on behalf of the coach
  • Assistant coaches helping with lineups, subs, and attendance
  • Parents helping run the team when the head coach is busy

Do I need an account?

Yes. An account keeps your team, players, lineups, attendance, and match history tied to you instead of one browser session.

Is it really free?

Yes. You can get started for free, and no credit card is required.
