Fair Play: Soccer Subs

By a rec coach tired of clipboard math. Track minutes live, stage subs while play continues, keep the clock on your Lock Screen. No account, no subscription, no ads

The sideline question every rec coach knows: who has not played enough yet?

Fair Play answers it at a glance. It is a substitution manager built for recreational soccer, where the point is not winning the league, it is making sure every kid gets a fair share of the game.

SET UP IN MINUTES

• Build your roster once, take attendance in seconds on game day
• Formation presets for 7v7, 8v8, 9v9, and 11v11, or design your own with the custom line editor
• Half length is per team, so U8 and adult rec can live side by side

RUN THE GAME

• Tap players onto the field, press play, coach
• Every player's time counts up live while the clock runs
• The bench sorts itself so the player most owed minutes is always on top
• A player whose stint has run long turns red, so nobody gets forgotten on the field
• Someone shows up late? Add them mid-game
• Red card? Drop that player for the game with a long press and everyone else's fair share adjusts automatically

SUBSTITUTIONS WITHOUT THE SCRAMBLE

• Stage the next change while play continues: who comes off, who goes in, even three-player rotations
• Color coding shows the whole plan on the field and bench at once
• One tap confirms everything when the ball goes out

THE DETAILS COACHES ACTUALLY NEED

• A game clock that runs added time: it keeps counting until you stop it, just like the referee's
• Score tracking, plus the clock, score, and half on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, so your phone can stay in your pocket
• An end-of-game summary: the final score and everyone's minutes

YOURS, NOT OURS

• No accounts, no subscription, no in-app purchases, no ads
• No analytics or tracking: everything stays on your phone, and it works fine at fields with no signal
• One price, forever
• VoiceOver and Dynamic Type supported throughout
