Built on the Sideline
Pitch Side came from the same place every grassroots idea does — a coach standing on a cold pitch thinking "there must be a better way to do this."
If you coach grassroots football, you know how it goes. Session plans scribbled on the back of an envelope. Squad details scattered across WhatsApp, a spreadsheet, and your memory. Formation ideas sketched on a whiteboard that got wiped before you could save them.
Pitch Side was built to bring all of that into one place. Not because coaching needs to be complicated, but because having your stuff organised means you can spend less time flicking through notes and more time actually coaching.
It's free because grassroots coaching is voluntary. The people who turn up week after week — setting up cones in the rain, driving the minibus, washing the bibs — they do it for the love of the game. The tools they use shouldn't come with a subscription.
