The problems TheCrib solves
Common obstacles soccer coaches face, and how TheCrib fixes them
Outdoor game cancellations cause message overload
TheCrib attaches an automatic weather forecast to every outdoor game. When conditions look bad, you can reschedule directly in the app and players receive a single notification. No 60-message thread needed.
Tracking stats for 18 players across a season is overwhelming
Log goals, assists, shots on target, and saves per player after each game. TheCrib builds the season totals automatically. You can view stats by player, by game, or by position group, and export everything to CSV.
Formation changes are lost in translation at halftime
Draw your formation or tactical adjustment on TheCrib's interactive soccer pitch. Share it directly to players' phones before kickoff or at halftime. No whiteboard, no hand signals: they see exactly what you drew.
Players and parents never know the schedule
Add your full season schedule once. Players RSVP in the app, parents see the same calendar, and automatic reminders go out 24 hours before each game. Weather is pulled automatically for outdoor locations.

Real coaches, real results
"Being captain of a summer league team is mostly just getting everyone to show up on time. I post our schedule on TheCrib once and everyone replies right there. No more chasing people across three group chats all week. It made running the team a lot less stressful.
Manage your team from anywhere
TheCrib is available on iPhone and iPad. Manage your soccer program, track attendance, and message your team from your pocket.
Frequently asked questions
FAQs
Can TheCrib handle a soccer club with multiple teams?+
Yes. Each team is a separate group in TheCrib and coaches manage their own roster and schedule. If you run a club with U12, U14, and U16 teams, each coach logs in and manages their team independently while club admins can see across all of them.
Does the weather alert work automatically?+
Yes. When you add a game and mark the location as outdoor, TheCrib fetches the forecast automatically. Players receive a reminder with the weather included before the game, no manual checking required.
Can I draw 4-3-3 and 4-4-2 formations on the tactics board?+
Yes. The tactics board has a full-size soccer pitch you can draw on. Place player markers, draw arrows for runs and positioning, and label your formation. You can save diagrams and share them to the team before a game.
How does RSVP tracking work for soccer games?+
You set the game in TheCrib and players receive an invitation. They respond Yes, No, or Maybe. You see the responses in real time. If someone hasn't responded close to game day, you can send a one-tap reminder to the non-responders only.
Is TheCrib available in French for Quebec-based soccer clubs?+
Yes. TheCrib is fully bilingual. Every coach and player can use the app in English or French. The language can be switched at any time from the app or website.
