Editing a player’s assignment

Drag a player into position, then select that player to work on an assignment. Draw a receiver’s route or choose a route preset. For a defender, draw movement, select a player to cover, or mark a zone.

Reviewing the snap and ball exchanges

Play the assignments together, pause at an exchange, or move through the timeline to explain a moment. Adjust motion, pass and handoff timing, or individual player speeds, then replay the play to review the change.
