COACHING & CURRICULUM HUB
From drawing your first drill to tracking which athletes opened the plan — Waresport Coaching Hub replaces the whiteboard, the group chat, and the scattered PDFs. Used by 200+ youth and club sports programs.
Works across volleyball, soccer, basketball, lacrosse, cricket, pickleball, and more.
HOW IT WORKS
Open the visual drill creator. Drop players on your court, draw arrows, add coaching notes and video clips. Save it to your library — reuse it all season.
Drag drills onto the practice timeline. Waresport auto-totals the duration. Save as a template for next week. Done in minutes, not an hour.
Deploy to your team in one tap. The acknowledgment tracker shows you who opened the plan and who hasn't — before they walk in the door.
BUILT FOR YOUR SPORT
The drill creator adapts to your sport's surface, positions, and play style. Not a one-size-fits-all template — a blank canvas for your system.
🏐
Build 6-2 and 5-1 rotation drills, serve receive patterns, and passing sequences. Deploy to 16U, 18U, and club teams separately. Most-used sport on Waresport.

MODULE 01 · DRILL CREATOR
Drop players onto a court or field, draw movement arrows, and animate multi-step sequences — no design skills needed. Works for any sport because you define the surface. Build a 6-2 rotation drill for volleyball, a zone press break for basketball, or a set piece for soccer in the same tool.

MODULE 02 · PRACTICE BUILDER
Drag any drill from your library onto a session timeline. Waresport auto-totals the duration so you never run over time. Save plans as templates and reuse them across teams, age groups, or seasons. No more building from scratch every Tuesday.
MODULE 03 · LESSON CONTENT
Every drill or practice block supports rich content blocks: coaching notes, embedded video, PDF attachments, and data tables. Attach the film clip from last week's match alongside the drill so athletes know exactly what they're fixing. All of it travels with the plan when you deploy.

MODULES 04 & 05 · DEPLOY + ACKNOWLEDGMENT
This is the problem every coach with a group chat has: you send the plan, you get back a thumbs-up emoji, and then half the team shows up to practice having no idea what drill you're running. Waresport solves it completely.
Push any practice plan to a team, a group, or individual athletes. They receive it instantly inside the Waresport mobile app — with full offline support so no connection at the facility breaks the flow.
The acknowledgment tracker shows you exactly who opened the plan, who hasn't, and — in quiz mode — who actually understood it. Before practice even starts, you know. No more guessing.
TUESDAY PRACTICE · ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Stop juggling spreadsheets, group chats, and scattered notes. Bring everything into one unified hub built for modern sports clubs.
MODULE 06 · ANALYZE VIDEOS
Coaches upload game or practice footage directly into the Coaching Hub and review it alongside their session content. Tag specific moments, drop timestamps with coaching notes, and attach those clips to drills or practice plans — so athletes see exactly what you're referencing, in context, not buried in a Drive folder.
What it does today: Upload, storage, in-hub playback, manual clip tagging, and timestamping by coaches. AI-powered breakdown is on the roadmap — we'll update this page when it ships.

“We went from five different apps to one. Parents stopped asking where to pay, and our coaches actually use the drill builder before every practice.”
“The tryout workflow alone saved us two weeks. Online registration, evaluation grids and team offers in one weekend instead of three.”
“Our tournament brackets, pool play and ref assignments finally live in the same place as our rosters. No more AES to WhatsApp to Venmo.”
COMMON QUESTIONS
Yes. Waresport offers access to the full Coaching Hub through a free trial without requiring a credit card, allowing clubs to test practice planning and drill-building tools with their coaching staff.
The Coaching Hub is available through Waresport subscriptions, which start at $69.99 per month. Pricing depends on the club's athlete capacity, AI credits, communication requirements, and support level.
Practice planning software for sports coaches is a digital tool that replaces the whiteboard, group chat, and scattered PDF workflow. It lets coaches build drills visually, arrange them into timed practice sessions, deploy plans to athletes' phones, and track who has reviewed the plan before practice starts. Waresport's Coaching Hub covers the full workflow — drill creator, practice builder, deploy, and acknowledgment tracking — in one place.
Hudl is built primarily for video and game film review — AI-powered breakdown, tagging, and game analysis. That is Hudl's strength and it is genuinely strong at it. Waresport is built for daily coaching operations: visual drill creation, drag-and-drop practice planning, and athlete acknowledgment tracking. If AI video breakdown is your primary need, Hudl is the right choice. If you need a complete practice planning workflow where you know exactly who reviewed the plan before stepping on the court, that is what Waresport is built for. Many clubs use both.
TeamSnap and SportsEngine handle team administration — schedules, rosters, messaging — reasonably well. Neither has a visual drill builder, a structured practice plan timeline, or athlete acknowledgment tracking. Waresport's Coaching Hub is designed specifically for the coaching workflow, not the admin workflow. Waresport also handles club administration (registrations, payments, tryouts) so directors do not need to run two platforms.
Three things a group chat PDF cannot do: First, you know who actually opened it — a PDF gives you a thumbs-up emoji; Waresport gives you a timestamped read receipt per athlete. Second, the content is interactive — drills have visual diagrams, attached video clips, and coaching notes in context. Third, it is reusable — every drill you build lives in a library you can pull from every season, not buried in a chat thread from last October.
When you deploy a practice plan, the acknowledgment tracker shows a live list of which athletes have opened it and when. You can view this from your dashboard before practice starts. If an athlete has not opened the plan, you can send a nudge directly from the dashboard — no separate text needed. In quiz mode, athletes must answer questions about the plan content before it counts as acknowledged, so you know they read it, not just tapped the notification.
A drill is a single exercise — built in the visual drill creator with player positions, movement arrows, and coaching notes or video attached. A practice plan is a full session timeline made up of multiple drills arranged in sequence, with auto-calculated total duration. Drills live in a reusable library; practice plans are built by dragging drills onto the timeline and can be saved as templates for future sessions.
All of them. The drill creator lets you define your own court or field surface — volleyball, soccer, basketball, lacrosse, cricket, pickleball, and more. You place players and draw arrows on whatever surface your sport uses, rather than being locked into a sport-specific template. Multi-sport clubs can maintain separate drill libraries for each sport within one account.
Yes. Assistant coaches can access the shared drill library, create and edit practice plans, and deploy to their assigned groups. Permission levels are controlled by the head coach or club director, so assistants see only what they need to.
Yes. Athletes access deployed plans inside the Waresport mobile app with full offline support. Once a plan is synced to their device, they can read the content, view drill diagrams, and watch attached clips without any connection at the field or gym.
The acknowledgment tracker flags them. You see who opened it, when, and who has not. You can send a nudge directly from the dashboard — no group chat needed. In quiz mode, you can also see whether they answered correctly, not just whether they tapped the notification.
Yes. Multi-sport clubs manage separate drill libraries, practice plan templates, and team groups for each sport within one Waresport account. Club directors see all programs in one dashboard; coaches see only their assigned sport.
Yes. Coaches access the full Coaching Hub on web and mobile. The Waresport mobile app is where athletes receive and review deployed plans. Coaches can also monitor acknowledgments, send nudges, and view the practice timeline from mobile.
Most clubs are live and running their first practice plan within two hours of setup. Waresport includes migration support from TeamSnap, SportsEngine, and PlayMetrics. Existing drills and documents can be attached as content blocks from day one.
