Basketball practice planner
Design the play. Run the practice.
Built by coaches, for coaches. HoopScape turns your ideas into animated plays, saves them as drills you reuse all season, organizes them into practice plans, and keeps the whole session on the rails — from the whiteboard to the gym floor.

What you get
Everything a coach needs between two whistles
No more marker-board photos and scattered notes. Build it once, run it clean, reuse it all season.
Draw animated drills and plays
Place players, defenders, cones and the ball on a half court, a full court, or either one with the out-of-bounds surround. Build the movement frame by frame, then play it back at whatever speed makes the point. Hide the controls and the court fills the screen.
Plan the whole practice
Drag drills into a timed plan, set durations, and reorder on the fly. The session adds up to the minute before you walk into the gym — and a variability bar shows at a glance whether you have built an hour of the same thing.
Put the season on a schedule
Set a practice to repeat weekly, or drop a one-off on a date. Change a single occurrence — this Thursday starts late — without disturbing the rest of the series, and skip the week you have a road game.
Run it courtside
Run mode shows the active drill big with its coaching cues beside it, tracks the clock, and moves drill-to-drill with a swipe. On iPhone and iPad it also keeps the screen awake.
Keep what actually happened
Jot a note during practice or after it, against the session it belongs to. Months later the Past view still has them, so you can look back at what worked in August before you plan November.
Share with a link
Send a drill or an entire practice to an assistant, a parent, or another coach with a single link — no account needed to open it, an optional expiry date, and you can revoke any link from your profile.
Trade drills with other coaches
Post a drill to the community feed and pull other coaches' work straight into your own library. Follow the coaches worth following, bookmark what you want later, and rate what you have actually run.
On the court
Everything you'd put on a whiteboard, and the parts you can't
Half court, full court, or either with the out-of-bounds surround. Screens, box-outs, cones and a coach — drawn the way a coach would draw them, then set moving.
Every object on the floor
Players, defenders, cones, a coach, the ball, and player lines — a whole queue waiting at the wing as one object — placed where you want them. Passes, cuts and dribbles draw themselves from the motion you animate.
Screens that read as screens
Mark who is screening and for whom, so the drill shows the action rather than two players standing near each other.
Box-outs, marked
Show the contact your rebounding drill is actually about, instead of leaving it to the huddle to explain.
How it works
From idea to gym floor in three steps
Draw your drills and plays
Sketch a drill or a set play on the court and animate the movement. Save it to your library so it's ready next time.
Assemble the practice
Pull drills into a timed plan, set how long each one runs, and shuffle the order until the session flows.
Run it live
Open Run mode courtside, keep the clock, and move drill-to-drill with a swipe. On iPhone and iPad the screen stays awake while you do.
