    Drill builder

    A tactics board that actually moves

    Lay out players, cones, balls and start/finish markers on a true-to-scale pitch, then add steps. Field Training animates every piece between steps, with dashed trails from where each one came from — so a run, a pass or a rotation reads at a glance.

    • Steps, not frames. Move what changes; everything else stays put.
    • Numbered players in team colours, with your last-used colour remembered.
    • Play it back at slow, normal or fast speed, right in the editor.
    • Export as a looping GIF and send it to the team chat.
    • Duplicate a drill to build a variation without starting over.

    Session planner

    From drill library to Tuesday night's session

    Put sessions on a calendar, give each one a focus and a length, and drop in drills in the order you'll run them. Group them into sections, add notes to each drill, and see the full day at a glance.

    • Sections like Warm-up, Passing, Game — drag drills between them.
    • Per-drill notes for the details only you would remember.
    • Follow mode walks you through the session drill by drill, animation and all, on the sideline.
    • Club sessions from other coaches show up in your calendar, read-only.

    Multi-sport

    Born on hockey turf. At home on any pitch.

    Field and indoor hockey come first, but every pitch is drawn to scale from its real dimensions — so your drills fit whatever you coach.

    Offline first

    Your drills and sessions live on your device. Edit with no signal; changes sync in order once you're back online.

    Phone, tablet, laptop

    Plan on a big screen, run the session from your phone. It all runs in the browser, with your account synced across every device.

    Light on data

    Drills are stored as positions, not videos. They load fast, take almost no space and stay crisp at any size.

    Questions coaches ask

    Who is Field Training for?

    Coaches and coaching staff. Today it's built for trainers planning drills and sessions; player access may come later.

    Which sports are supported?

    Field hockey, indoor hockey, ice hockey, football, futsal and basketball, each with its own to-scale pitch. Hockey is where it started, but nothing in the app is hockey-only.

    How do I sign in?

    Enter your email and tap the magic link we send you. There's no password to create or forget.

    Does it work without internet?

    Yes. Your own drills and sessions are saved on your device and can be created, edited and deleted offline. Changes sync automatically when you reconnect. Club features need a connection.

    Can I share a drill with players or parents?

    Export any drill as a looping GIF and share it anywhere — team chat, email or social. To share with other coaches, add them to your club.

    Where can I use it?

    In any modern browser at play.fieldtraining.app, on your phone, tablet or laptop. Your account, drills and settings follow you between devices.

    Your next session, planned before the kettle boils.
