When you need more than the free tools

The free tools get your plan, lineup and squad on paper. A membership adds the tools coaches and analysts use to show players exactly how a move should look.

Tactics board

Build drills and set pieces with players, cones, zones and arrows, in 2D or 3D, and save the ones you use every week.

Animation studio

Step through passing patterns and runs so players see the movement, then export it as a video for the team.

Video analysis

Freeze a match clip, mark positions and runs, and show players the exact moment your next session is built around.

Screenshot tools

Annotate match stills, or turn a screenshot into an editable tactics board with AI.

Try DrawTactics £5.99 a month or £47.99 a year. Every tool included. Cancel any time.

Free coaching guides

Short, practical guides to help you get more out of the tools.
