How SquadClock helps on match day

Played minutes in view: fair playing time for everyone

In youth football the most awkward question of the day comes after the final whistle: who was on the pitch, and for how long? SquadClock counts every player's minutes automatically as soon as the match clock is running.

The substitution dialog shows the minutes played next to each name, so you can see at a glance who is up next instead of keeping tally marks on paper. After the match the playing times are part of the match log and easy to show to players and parents.

Plan substitutions and record them in seconds

A substitution takes two taps in SquadClock: player off, player on. The app stops the clock for the player leaving and starts it for the one coming on — across every period of the match.

Before kick-off you set the starting line-up and the keeper; during the match you keep pitch and bench in one list. Because everything happens on a single screen, your eyes stay on the game rather than on the phone.

Match log: goals, assists and cards fully documented

Every event is logged with its match minute: goals with scorer and assist, yellow and red cards, time penalties, substitutions and the start and end of each period.

That gives you a complete match report without writing one — useful for the debrief, for the club report, or simply to settle an argument about the score.

Split the squad into evenly matched teams

For training matches and tournaments SquadClock divides your squad into teams of equal strength. It uses the strength rating you give each player; goalkeepers are pinned one per team and inactive players are left out.

Accept the result or reshuffle it. No more sides that are obviously stronger — and nobody has to be picked last.

Organise tournaments with several teams

For a tournament day you create a tournament, split your squad into tournament teams and record the individual matches as usual. Results, scorers and playing times feed into the same history as regular matches.

Tournaments are part of the free base version.

Offline on the touchline, installable on iPhone and Android

SquadClock is a Progressive Web App: you open it in the browser and can install it like a normal app via “Add to Home Screen” — on iPhone and iPad just as on Android phones and tablets. No app store download required.

After the first load the app works fully offline, so the clock keeps running on pitches with no signal and substitutions and goals are recorded as usual. The screen stays awake during a match so the clock remains visible.

Frequently asked questions

The short answers — the full list is in the FAQ.

What is SquadClock?

SquadClock is a football app for coaches that lets you run a whole match from the touchline: match clock, score, goals, cards, substitutions with per-player minutes, squad management and fair team balancing.

Technically it is a Progressive Web App (PWA). You open it in a browser, install it on your home screen and use it offline from then on.

Does SquadClock work offline?

Yes. After the first load SquadClock works fully offline. The clock, substitutions, goals and cards all work on a pitch with no mobile signal.

An internet connection is only needed to load or update the app — and, with Premium, to purchase and verify the license.

Do I need a user account?

No. SquadClock has no user accounts, no sign-in and no registration. You open the app and start straight away.

Buying Premium does not require an account with us either; the license is handled by Lemon Squeezy and unlocked with a license key.

Is my squad and match data transmitted anywhere?

No. Teams, players, matches and match logs are stored solely on your device in the browser's local storage. They are not transmitted to us or to third parties, and there is no cloud sync between devices.

There is no tracking, no advertising and no analysis of your usage. The privacy policy has the details.
