The way play designs look in CHLK are super clean. It easy for me to be able to put in a new play, without having to deal with all the extra issues. This app is exactly what I needed!

This by far is the most simple but effective solution to drawing plays. Football diagramming made easy! Going to save me so much time creating practice scripts.

This iPad app is sleek, thankful I don’t need to use powerpoint any longer, and I can draw plays like I would on dry erase board.
• Route Tree: tap a receiver or back and stamp a route from a library organized into Quick, Intermediate and Deep. Route names label themselves, and one tap hides or shows all labels.
• O-Line Blocking: set the whole line in one tap and stamp zone and gap combos (SINGLE, DOUBLE, ACE, DEUCE, TREY and more). Chlk draws the double team and the climb for you.
• Pass Set Left/Right now splits at the center, and a new Clear Blocks button wipes the line in one tap.
• New Red Zone Defense fields for High School, College and NFL.
• Cleaner text: labels now show without a white box, with an outline so they stay readable.
• Playbook Creator polish and fixes.
• Chlk now lets you know in the app when an update is available.
