Soccer WhiteBoard is an application which allows you to display player and ball positioning on a full or half field display. It's based on the same concept as our Hockey and Basketball white boards. Simply drag the players and ball around with your fingertips as you explain to a player how to position themselves on the field! Each team can be represented as one of two colors (Team #1 can be red or green, Team #2 can be purple or orange), and you can have 1-11 players on each team at any time. The letter designation on each player can be changed by simply double-tapping that player.

Soccer WhiteBoard is the first of our white board applications to feature a "scrolling field" display option. This view allows a coach to position all 11 players on the field without having a cramped display.

FEATURES ADDED SINCE INITIAL VERSION:
Version 1.2 adds the ability to draw lines with your finger on top of the playing surface when you put the application in "drawing mode". Drawing mode is entered by performing a large vertical swipe (without dragging a player dot). This is equivalent to putting a "transparency" over the playing field upon which you can draw. When you are done drawing, double-tap to remove the transparency. If you want to erase the transparency, give the device a good shake! Additionally, you can now specify 0-11 players (instead of 1-11) on each side. A simple "+" and "-" control make it easier to increment the player count instead of having to pull up a keyboard to put the number in.

Version 1.1 adds the ability to show "trailing lines" when moving a player. When configured to show trailing lines, a yellow line appears along the path you moved a player one you have completed dragging that player to a new position. To erase the lines, simply give your device a good shake!

Soccer WhiteBoard allows you to use your iPhone or iPod touch as a tool to help teach players of any age. Set up a scenario and then ask your player(s) to move dots to the right position! Perfect for sitting down one on one with a player on the bench, in the locker room or even on the bus as you travel to your next game.
