Soccerteer Instructions

Everything you need to know to get the most out of your soccer tracking app

Basic Concepts

Soccerteer allows you to record and track your players game time, bench time, Goals, Shots, Assists and Saves. You can also add Sanctions and Awards to each match for your player, then view reports of each match or your Players career across all matches.

Add a player, create a match, then start the Match Timer. Start and stop the Player Timer each time your player comes onto the pitch to record their match time. Any time they are not on the pitch but are assigned to a match they will accrue 'Bench Time'. Add Goals, Assists, Shots on Target and Saves (if your player is a Goalkeeper). Add any Sanctions your player may receive in a match. Once a match is 'Ended', add any awards they receive plus add some Match Notes if you like.

  • Ending a match is very important!
  • Matches only show on the Matches Report Page if they have been 'Ended' (by clicking on the gold Whistle at the bottom of the Match Detail Page).
  • Bench time is only Calculated after a match is 'Ended' and so the Bench Report will only include data from matches that have 'Ended'.
  • Match statistics will only be added to the Season table once a match has been 'Ended'.
