For racket sports coaches and clubs

Coaching software that holds your framework, your sessions and every player's progress.

Plan a session and deliver it courtside from the same screen. Score each player 0 to 10 on the pillars you set, with written anchors so the number means the same thing every time. Players and parents see their own portal, showing only what you choose to share.

Today is the first screen a coach opens: the session that is on, who has replied, and the three things waiting on them. Nothing else.

Built for every racket sport. Badminton, Tennis, Padel, Pickleball, Squash, and table tennis on the same editable framework.

Plan and deliver

The week you are about to coach, written down.

Rotate is where the plan lives before the session and during it, so Sunday evening's work is what you are holding on Thursday night.

A coach setting up a drill on court
Sessions and squads
Schedule squads and 1-2-1s, enrol players, and build the plan block by block with a running total of the time.
A library you build once
Save a plan as a template, keep your drills in one place, and pull them into next week in a few taps.
Annual plans
Ladder the sessions up into a season, so a player has an arc rather than a different drill every Tuesday.
Invites and replies
Players and parents get the session and reply to it. You see who is coming before you leave the house.
On court now

On the day, Rotate goes dark and gets out of the way.

The same session you planned on Sunday, in the one view built to be used standing up on a sports hall floor.

  • Read it at arm's length

    The plan goes big and dark, one block at a time, so you can read it from the back of the court with a racket in the other hand.

  • Take the register in two taps

    Attendance chips sit at the top of the view. Tap a player in, and the session's record is done before you have finished the warm-up.

  • Leave the note while it is fresh

    Write the follow-up on the way to the car. It lands in the player's portal and in their history, not in your notes app.

Assess and track

A score that means the same thing every time you give it.

Six pillars by default, editable to whatever you actually coach. Every level carries a written anchor, so the number survives a change of coach and a change of season.

Your score The player's own score

This player rates themselves two points above you on tactics and mental game. That gap is the conversation you have at the next session, and it is on the screen before you open your mouth.

Scoring a skill

Every level has words attached

Move the scale. The wording under it is the anchor for that level, so two coaches scoring the same player land on the same number, and so does the player.

6 · Competent. Efficient footwork and split-step; covers the court well.

Previous 4 · up 2

Write your own anchors for your own pillars, or start from the badminton set and edit it.

Then and now

Two assessments on one radar, plus per-pillar trends, so you see the trajectory rather than today's snapshot.

The player's own view

Players rate themselves on the same framework, and the gap between their view and yours is on the screen.

Goals from the score

Turn a player's weakest pillar into a development goal in a click, then track it session to session.

Run the club

Everything the group chat was doing badly.

Squads, coaches, families, forms, fixtures and consents, in the same workspace as the coaching.

Unlimited coaches

One workspace across squads and venues. Adding a coach costs nothing.

Player and parent portals

Their own login, showing only what you choose to share.

Messaging and forms

Threads with families, plus forms and check-ins that chase themselves.

Competitions and calendar

Fixtures and events beside the sessions, in one calendar.

Squad selection

Periodic red, amber and green reviews with retain, nominate or release. Optional, off by default.

Safeguarding and UK data

Minors first: versioned consents, coach-approved parent links, UK GDPR throughout.

Who it is for

From a coach with twenty players to a club with six coaches.

The same workspace either way. Players and parents always get their own portal.

Solo coaches

Solo coaches

Your one-person business, fully in hand.

Everything you run in a week, in one place: the timetable, the plans, the scores, the notes and the messages to families.

  • Sessions, plans and courtside delivery
  • Six-pillar assessments and goals
  • Parent comms built in
  • Pay only for the players you coach
Clubs and academies

Clubs and academies

Coordinate coaches, squads and venues.

The same workspace, shared. Every coach scores against the same framework, so a player's record survives a change of coach.

  • Unlimited coaches, one workspace
  • Squads, 1-2-1s and shared libraries
  • Invite codes for players and parents
  • Per-player billing as you grow

Running a club, academy or talent pathway?

We will load your framework and set up squad selection for you, then walk your coaches through it.

Where it comes from

Built with coaches in Northern Ireland.

Rotate started because a badminton coach here was running a whole programme out of a spreadsheet and a group chat. It is built with the coaches using it, in the weeks between their sessions, and it does the jobs they actually asked for rather than the ones that demo well.

There are no customer logos on this page and no numbers we have not earned. Start the trial and judge the software.

Built against a real week
Every release is tested on a live programme's actual timetable before it ships, not on a demo database.
No feature tiers
One plan. A solo coach gets the same software as a club, including unlimited coaches in the workspace.
Written for the three people who use it
The help centre covers every screen from the coach's side, the player's side and the parent's side.
Help centre

Every screen has a written guide.

Free to read, no account needed. Have a look before you sign up for anything.

Common questions

Questions coaches ask first.

Anything else, the help centre covers every screen.

Do I have to move off my spreadsheet?

No rush. Rotate holds your own framework, so you can rebuild what you use today and keep going, with full history and on your phone.

Is it only for badminton?

It is built badminton-first, with an editable framework you can adapt to any racket sport.

Who can see a player's data?

Coaches see their squad. Players and parents get their own portal showing only what you choose to share. Consents are versioned and parent links are coach-approved.

Can I add other coaches?

Yes. Unlimited coaches in one workspace, across squads and venues.

What does it cost?

Built for coaches. Start free for 14 days; pricing on the coach plan page. See the coach plan.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, cancel whenever you like.

Pricing

Sold to the coach, not to the family.

You set your own rates with your players. What you pay us is a flat workspace cost that scales with the size of your programme, and nothing else. Adding coaches costs nothing, and archived players stop being billed.

The figures are on the coach plan page rather than here, because your players and parents use this same site to reach their portal.

14-day free trial, no card needed. Cancel whenever you like.
