Plan Settings & Defaults

Plan Settings & Defaults

Plan Defaults fill in your usual details on every new plan: group, level, length, template, logo, lines and more. Set them once and you'll skip most of the Plan Details step.

Open Plan Defaults


Go to Plans → Plan Defaults. You can also click the gear icon on My Plans, or the Plan Defaults link next to Template when you create a plan.

Plan Details


Fill in what's the same for most of your practices:

  • Title, Time and Length
  • Default drill length – the minutes each drill starts with when you add it in the Plan Builder. Leave it blank for 10.
  • Prepared By, Focus, Group and Level
  • Template – the print template new plans use.

Organization


Pick the Folders and Tags every new plan should start with. For example, your team's folder for this season.

Branding


  • Association – the association your plans belong to, if you have one.
  • Logo – your account default logo, no logo, or one of your custom logos.

Sharing


  • Make available on team sharing page – new plans show up for your team.
  • Enable public share links by default – new plans start with share links turned on.
  • Expire public share links by default – links stop working the day after the practice.
  • Share with Associations – share new plans with your association, and choose whether members can edit them.

You can change any of these on a single plan's Sharing tab.

Drill Options & Text Size


  • Show drill descriptions on printed plans – new plans include drill descriptions when printed.
  • Plan text size – XS to XL. This one applies to all of your plans, not just new ones.

Lines & Jersey Colors


Enter your usual forward lines, D pairs, goalies and injured players. Every new plan starts with them filled in on the Lines & Games tab.

Save or Clear


Click Save defaults at the bottom of the page. To start over, click Clear all defaults.

Good to Know


  • Defaults only fill in new plans. Plans you've already created don't change. The one exception is Plan text size.
  • You can still change anything on a single plan. Defaults are just a starting point.

Tips


  • Update your defaults at the start of each season with your new group, folder and lines.
  • Turn on Expire public share links by default if you share plans with parents and don't want old links hanging around.
  • Set Default drill length to match how you usually run drills, such as 8 minutes, so you change fewer times in the builder.
