Design football tactical plays on a horizontal pitch
Work on a landscape pitch built to read width, depth, runs and coordination between units. This page opens the horizontal board directly and keeps all the tools available on the 2D board.
Turn a tactical idea into a visible sequence
Play the whole action or split it into phases to explain when each movement begins and how the team units work together.
What you can do

Combine arrows, lines, text, zones and animated movements in one workspace.
Play by phases
Break down a complex action into steps and play the sequence in order.
Video and image export
Export the tactical explanation for review or team sharing.
How it works

Who it helps
- Build-up patterns, high pressing and transitions.
- Attacking automatisms and defensive cover.
