TheCrib's depth chart lets you organize players by unit (offense, defense, and special teams) and update it after every practice. Your whole coaching staff sees the live version. No more emailing PDFs of depth charts that are out of date by Tuesday.
Scheduling & management
Run your football season on autopilot
TheCrib lets you schedule your full football season (preseason practices, games, and bye weeks) in one place. When you add a game, all players receive an invitation with the time, opponent, and location. RSVP tracking shows you your full expected roster before game day, broken down by unit.

Frequently asked questions
FAQs
Can I organize my roster by position unit in TheCrib?+
Yes. You can tag each player with their position and unit (QB, RB, WR for offense, LB, CB, S for defense, and so on). The depth chart view lets you see your full roster organized by unit and filter by position.
Does the tactics board include a football field?+
Yes. TheCrib's tactics board includes an interactive football field canvas. You can draw plays, mark receiver routes, defensive assignments, and blocking schemes. Save plays and organize them by category to build a digital playbook.
How does TheCrib handle a roster of 45+ players?+
TheCrib supports rosters of any size. The paid plan removes the roster cap entirely. You can organize players by unit, set availability requests, and manage payments all from the same interface.
Can multiple coaches access the team at the same time?+
Yes. You can add assistant coaches and coordinators to your TheCrib team with their own login. Each coach sees the full roster, schedule, and communications. Permission levels let you control what each coach can edit.
Does TheCrib work for both Canadian and American football?+
Yes. TheCrib works for CFL-style and NFL-style football programs. Position labels, field dimensions on the tactics board, and stat categories (yards, touchdowns, tackles, sacks) cover both formats.
