Plan the Session, Draw the Tactics, Run the Squad
Session planning, a searchable drill library, an animated tactical board and formation builder — sat next to the same athlete and training data you already coach from.
- Session planner for structuring team and squad sessions block by block
- Searchable drill library, tagged by category and equipment
- Animated tactical board with a surface picker, player and equipment placement and freehand drawing
- Keyframe animation timeline so tactics can be played back, not just drawn once and left static
- Formation builder for setting out starting shapes and phase-of-play patterns
- Session review so coaches can debrief what was actually run, not just what was planned
Session Planner
Structure a team session block by block — warm-up, technical work, tactical phase, conditioning — and attach drills to each block from your library. Sessions built here sit alongside the same athlete data you already use for individual programming, so a squad session and an individual return-to-play programme are visible from the same coaching view, not two disconnected tools.
Drill Library
A searchable library of drills tagged by category and equipment, so building out a week of sessions doesn't mean redrawing the same possession drill from scratch every Monday. Save your own drills once and reuse them across sessions and squads.
Tactical Board
An animated tactical board with a surface picker for different sports, player and equipment placement, and freehand drawing for runs, passing lanes and pressing triggers. Unlike a whiteboard photo, the board doesn't just capture a static moment — a keyframe-based animation timeline lets you sequence a phase of play and play it back, so a tactic can actually be demonstrated in motion rather than described over a single frozen image.
Formation Builder
Set out starting formations and phase-of-play shapes, save them, and reuse them across sessions and opponents. Formations sit in the same system as your drills and tactical board work, so a shape you build for Thursday's session is the same one you can pull up and adjust before Saturday's match.
Session Review
After a session runs, review what was actually delivered against what was planned. For S&C and performance staff who need to show what a training block actually contained, not just what the calendar said it should contain, this gives you a real record rather than relying on memory or a coach's notebook.
Why This Lives Next to Your Athlete Data
Most tactical planning tools are built for team sport coaches and stop there — they don't know anything about an individual athlete's current training phase, injury status or readiness. Elite Coaching Hub's Performance Planner sits inside the same platform as programme building, nutrition and clinical data, so a session planned here can be built with the same squad's current training load and availability already in view, instead of cross-referencing a separate team-management app against your coaching platform.
FAQ
Can I animate tactics on the tactical board, or is it just static drawing?
The tactical board includes a keyframe-based animation timeline, so you can sequence player and ball movement across a phase of play and play it back, not just draw a single static diagram.
Does the drill library let me save my own drills?
Yes. Save your own drills with category and equipment tags once, then reuse and search for them across every session you plan, rather than redrawing the same drill repeatedly.
Is Performance Planner connected to my athletes' training data?
Yes. Because it runs inside the same platform as programme building and athlete profiles, sessions and formations you build sit alongside the same squad's training load, injury status and availability, rather than living in a separate disconnected team-management tool.
Can I review what actually happened in a session afterwards?
Yes. Session Review lets you record what was actually delivered against the original session plan, giving you a real record for reporting or auditing a training block rather than relying on memory.
