Not just a sub timer. SubTime tracks minutes, plans rotations, records events and shares live with your staff. Join 60,000+ coaches and be ready on game day.
Trusted by more than 60,000 coaches and used for over 600,000 games.
Coaching should be about your players and the game - not trying to remember who needs to come off, who has played the longest, or when the next substitution should happen.
SubTime takes the stress out of game-day management. Built for youth sports coaches, it helps you manage playing time, plan substitutions, organize lineups, track game events, and keep your coaching team on the same page - all from one app.
GIVE EVERY PLAYER FAIR PLAYING TIME
No more guessing who has played the most.
The game clock and sub timer run together, so you see each player's playing and bench time at a glance throughout the match. SubTime makes it easier to balance minutes, spot who is due for a rest, and give every player a fair opportunity to participate.
It's especially useful for youth coaches who want to keep playing time transparent and avoid the post-game question: "Why didn't my child play more?"
TAKE THE STRESS OUT OF SUBSTITUTIONS
Plan your substitutions before the game or manage them as the action unfolds.
SubTime shows who's currently playing, who's on the bench, and who should come on next - so you can make changes without losing focus on the match. Auto Plan also works mid-game, so you can rebuild the rotation after a late arrival or an injury.
ARRIVE WITH A GAME PLAN
Build your roster, mark attendance, assign player positions, and prepare your starting lineup before kickoff.
Pick a standard formation or build a custom one, then save your favorite lineups and reuse them for future games.
You can also plan your rotation in advance: either create your own substitution plan or use the Auto Plan feature to generate one that spreads playing time evenly.
DEALING WITH THE UNEXPECTED
Game day rarely goes to plan, and SubTime has been fine-tuned over years of real matches to cope.
A player arrives late. Someone picks up an injury. You make a substitution in the heat of the moment and forget to record it. A guest player turns up to fill a gap in the squad.
Rework the squad, the rotation, and the record - adjust as you go or amend after the game, without restarting or losing what you've already tracked.
TRACK THE GAME WHILE YOU COACH
Record events as they happen - goals, assists, cards, substitutions, and custom events of your own.
When the final whistle goes, everything is already organized. Review playing time, player participation, game history, and season statistics without rebuilding it from memory. Game history and player stats export to CSV for club reporting, auditing, or season records.
COACH TOGETHER WITH SUBTIME LIVE
Game management doesn't have to fall on one person.
Share your team with assistant coaches and team managers. With SubTime Live, multiple coaches can collaborate during the same game - one manages substitutions while another tracks events. Family and friends can follow along as viewers, at the field or from home.
FOR CLUBS AND MULTIPLE TEAMS
Running more than one team? SubTime Club links your club's teams together, lets you view and export game history and player stats across every squad, and lets you buy SubTime access for club teams in bulk at discounted rates.

Great app for coaches with minor improvements needed
Jeremy999876
2nd update (9/26) - confirmed all fixed, and the developer worked quickly to make the changes. Back to 5 starts, and continuing to recommend this to other coaches.Update - I just upgraded to the iPhone 11 pro max and the app no longer opens. Unfortunately tomorrow is game day, so I hope this gets resolved quickly.****** I love this app! It is a huge help for tracking playing time for soccer. Recent improvements like adding score tracking, etc are great. That said, there are a few things that are needed which have caused real problems for me recently. First, Tracking the score, including which kid scored and who assisted is great, but it would be great to have the ability to edit this information during the game. There have been a few times where I forgot to add the person with the assist and could not find a way to correct it later. Second, and this is an important one, DO NOT LEAVE THE GAME SCREEN (by swiping left) before the game is completed. If you do, you will lose all the information from that game. This happened to me recently when I tried to find a way to edit a previous goal (see above) and I lost the entire timing for the game, making it useless to track the rest of the game. That needs to be fixed ASAP.I already recommend this app to other soccer coaches I know, but these minor improvement would be really helpful. Thanks

Jeremy, 3.0.6 would have fixed the issue with iOS 13. Please let us know if you still experience problems. thanks for the feedback! A few coaches complained the inability to edit the score. It will be fixed in the new release. In the latest release just came out, swiping is now disabled in the game screen, so it is safe now... sorry, didn't realize that problem till only recently. Enjoy your game! Lin
Hats off to Developer

I needed to track subs for soccer games badly without complex clutter all over screen. In the heat of a game simple is king. Looked at even learning to program and build one because nothing was intuitive, simple, and done the job well visually and intuitively. Tried several. This app is awesome, keep up the good work! Keep it simple and don’t over complicate like all these other soccer apps. Please consider these additions: tapping a player pops up a simple sub menu that lets you tally custom tracking stats for player, nothing fancy. Too much complexity makes it impossible to use during heat of the game. Just maybe a +\- button on 4 categories. For example: goal, shot on goal, good pass, good tackle, assist. Things like this. Maybe let user create whatever they want for each to track. This would then be logged with game history. Thank you again for your efforts and I’m here to support your future efforts! Keep it up!

Thanks for the great feedback, the latest version now would track goals and note(as a way to capture everything else for now). Please check it out!
Love it, but would like a few minor improvements
jrweaver
Love it and use it in games. It’s simplicity is perfect, but would like to see a few minor tweaks. Suggested improvements:1. Have an option for auto pause at halftime and game in. This could be toggled in settings for those that want auto pause. 2. Need an indicator for when I forget to sub at the planned interval. The sub time indicator turns orange 30 seconds before the planned time the red 5 seconds before. Then it resets to the next interval. If I’m busy coaching during that 30 seconds I could miss the orange/red indicator and forget to sub. Would like some big indicator to say “hey! The last sub interval passed and you haven’t subbed Yet!!!”3. The sub plan interface is confusing. Currently, it moves the player on the field to the bench. Puts the bench player to the field and puts the same color circles around both players. But the player now on the bench has their name in the circle and above their circle. ??? Don’t understand what the intent is there. Would rather see the current player still listed as on field with name of person coming in for them below the circle, same color circle for both players and the player going in still on bench, but put the name of the player they’re going in for above the circle. All, in all though, this is a great app!

Thanks for the feedback! Will look into improvements based on your input.
Exactly what I was looking for
Hilk1111
I coach my Son's first grade team in a park district league that plays 4 on 4 with teams of 8. The league really wants us to let each kid play about half the time. I sub 1 or 2 players at a time opportunistically. It's hard to stick to a substitution plan when there is always an unexpected absence. Apart from a gut feel for how much time each kid has played, I really lose track. When I make a sub on the field, This app lets me quickly glance down and swipe that player's icon from the sideline into an on filed position and it automatically moves the player who was in that position out to the sideline. It keeps a running clock of cumulative play time for each kid and a clock of time since their last sub in or out. It also lets you change positions on the field in real time, but that is overkill for my needs. Perfect. Thanks for creating this.
