Hi,
I was wondering if there is a spot in the forum where I can share some of the apps I have made. Every other category seemed focused on teams/tournaments.
They are 100% free and its not an ad. I have shared it with a bunch of coaches and highschools, and its been pretty helpful.
its on par with or better than the paid stuff out there. My goal was/is to have free apps for the community where shelling out $$ could be an issue.
Based on the feedback I have had, these are either same or even better than the premium paid stuff out there. I am a solo developer who wanted to provide resources for the community. Donation is the only form of payment I accept, and all of it goes to clubs/orgs that provide soccer access to children who cannot afford.
# Free Coaching Tools for Community Soccer Programs

## Why These Apps Exist
Professional coaching tools cost money that community programs don't have. The gap between what a funded academy can do and what a volunteer coach running Saturday morning sessions in an underserved neighborhood can do is enormous — not because of talent or passion, but because of resources.
These apps close that gap. Not by offering a watered-down version of professional tools. By exceeding them. Built to help myself as a coach, then given to the community because the community deserves it. **These are the levellers.**

## Touchline Studio
**The complete coaching companion**
[App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/touchline-studio/id6757970508) · [Website](https://umangdesai.com/touchlinestudio-pages/)
Touchline Studio manages the full coaching workflow — from planning sessions to tracking every player's development across the season.
| Feature | What It Does |
|---|---|
| **Session Planning + Execution** | Drag-and-drop training timelines with durations and coaching points. Run live with a built-in stopwatch, log per-player notes in the moment, keep a full timing history |
| **Drill Library + AI Creation** | Tagged, searchable drill library with animated coach-board diagrams. Or describe a drill in plain language — AI creates it with setup, constraints, coaching points, examples, and adaptation notes |
| **Player Development Trees** | Season-scoped per-player development plans structured as a tree: Outcomes → Capacities → Habits → Actions → Evidence. Link sessions to nodes. AI-guided walkthrough to build the first tree. Full history on every player profile |
| **Player Evaluations** | Rate players across Technical, Tactical, Physical, and Mental on US Soccer / England FA templates (or custom). RAG scores (Needs Work / Developing / Strong), season snapshots, and a progress dashboard showing who is improving and who needs attention |
| **Lineup Management + Tactical Annotations** | Build season lineups across all formations (11v11, 9v9, 7v7). Drag players to exact positions. Match prep lineups — experiment with formations before game day, then promote to official. Draw arrows, zones, free runs, opponent markers, and text labels directly on the pitch |
| **Roster Management** | CSV/Excel import with review step. Jersey numbers, profiles, session attendance, full development history per player |
| **Schedule + Match Management** | Full season calendar. Live match flow with lineups, substitutions, and in-match notes |
| **Apple Watch** | Sessions sync to Watch. Run a session from your wrist — timer, current drill, key details — without touching your phone |
| **iCloud Sync** | Everything offline-capable and synced automatically. Sessions, drills, evaluations, development trees, lineups, annotations — all private to you |
*For volunteer coaches, school programs, community clubs, and NGOs — the full operational toolkit of a professional club. Free.*

## Soccer Fitness Tracker
**Professional performance data. No expensive hardware required.**
[App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/soccer-fitness-tracker/id6756504677) · [Website](https://umangdesai.com/soccer-fitness-tracker-site/)
GPS vests used by professional clubs cost hundreds of dollars per player. Apple Watch is a sophisticated sensor platform that millions already own. Soccer Fitness Tracker unlocks it.
| Feature | What It Does |
|---|---|
| **Movement Analysis and Heatmaps** | Visual map of every run and position change during a match or session — spot patterns, gaps, and overloads |
| **Sprint and Distance Tracking** | Auto-detects sprints by intensity zone, total distance covered, peak speed |
| **Heart Rate Zones** | Time in each HR zone (aerobic base, threshold, anaerobic) for every player |
| **Fatigue & Recovery Monitoring** | Track session loads over time to spot accumulated fatigue before it becomes injury |
| **Session History** | Full performance log across the season — compare players, track fitness trends |
*Requires iPhone + Apple Watch. Works for matches and training sessions.*
---
## Tryout Assistant
**No player gets missed.**
[App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tryout-assistant/id6756588745) · [Website](https://umangdesai.com/tryoutsassistant-pages/)
Hands free player notes tracking. Coaches at tryouts spend more time watching clipboards than watching players. Tryout Assistant fixes that with voice.
| Feature | What It Does |
|---|---|
| **Voice-Powered Notes** | Say "Number 7 — great first touch, needs work on positioning." Instant transcription, filed automatically |
| **Roster Import** | Upload players in advance; jersey numbers match to names automatically |
| **Team Building** | Sort players into squads or shortlists after evaluations; compare notes side by side |
| **Multi-Coach** | Assistant coaches contribute their own evaluations to the same session |
| **Offline-First** | Works with no internet. Syncs when back in range |
| **Export** | Full evaluation reports as PDF or spreadsheet |
