Every matchday is different. Some weekends you have parent/guardian volunteers ready to track every pass; other weekends you are managing substitutions and the game clock entirely on your own. 11Kits provides three match tracking detail levels so you can capture valuable game events without overwhelming your sideline helpers.
Before kickoff, select your tracking mode on the Match Prep screen. This controls how the live field screen behaves during play:
| Detail Level | Best For | Sideline Staffing | How You Log On Field |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tap-Only ("OFF") |
Recreational teams, solo coaches, or single parent/guardian helpers. | 1 person handles clock, goals, fouls, and basic set-pieces. | Simple point taps on the pitch. No arrow drawing required. Remote parents/guardians receive instant score and set-piece updates on their live feed. |
| Pass Arrows ("SIMPLE") |
Competitive teams wanting team passing totals without tracking individual jersey numbers. | 1 dedicated tracker, or shared between two helpers. | Drag an arrow from where the ball was kicked to where it landed. Instantly captures team pass completion, build-up zones, and attacks into the box. |
| Player-Attributed ("PLAYER_ATTRIBUTED") |
Academy and showcase teams needing full player-to-player passing chemistry. | 2 to 3 delegated helpers using assigned sideline roles. | Draw pass arrows plus quick taps to confirm passer and recipient. Unlocks individual pass networks, combination play chains, and progressive run charts. |
Expecting one volunteer to track the clock, record substitutions, log fouls, and draw pass arrows at full game speed leads to mistakes. 11Kits allows head coaches to split duties across multiple phones using granular staff permissions:
| Matchday Role | Permissions Granted | Best Assigned To | What They Control on Field |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Match Operations | isTimekeepercanRecordSubs |
Team Manager, Parent/Guardian Helper, or Coach | Master match clock, added stoppage time, halftime transitions, and individual player minutes played. No arrow drawing required. |
| 2. Ball Progression & Build-Up | canRecordVectorscanRecordSetPieces |
Assistant Coach or Dedicated Stat Tracker | Pass and carry arrows, recipient tags, possession sequences, combination chains, and set-piece restarts (Corners, Throw-ins, Goal Kicks, Offsides). |
| 3. Finishing & Key Events | canRecordShots(Goals, Saves, Woodwork, PKs) |
Parent/Guardian Volunteer or Assistant | Attacking actions in the box, goal-mouth shot placement (target height and width), goalkeeper saves, blocks, and direct free kicks on goal. |
| 4. Disruptions & Discipline | canRecordDefensivecanRecordFouls |
Parent/Guardian Volunteer or Assistant | Tackles (won/lost), interceptions, clearances, fouls committed or drawn, and yellow/red cards. |
A common question coaches ask is: "What happens to our season stats if we track passes in tournament games, but only use Tap-Only mode during friendly scrimmages?"
