Player Minutes & Position Tracker For Coaches

Created by Tom Measham, Modified on Thu, 16 Nov, 2023 at 4:19 PM by Tom Measham


To support coaches to monitor the minutes that players play over the course of the season and the % of minutes players play in each position we have developed a tracker sheet for grassroots coaches to download and use. 


This sheet will be particularly useful for coaches in clubs that are committed to equal game time, or equal game time and equal positional time. When completed correctly the sheet will give you as a coach an accurate picture of the following;


Games Played

Minutes Played

Average Minutes Per Game

Minutes Per Position 

% Minutes In Each Position


The sheet helps you to have an overview of minutes across the course of the season, if you are committed to equal playing time for all players the average minutes per match column should be very similar for all players. The sheet does take into account that players doe miss matches for illness/injury/holiday etc  


Coaches can then use the information to balance out any players that have lower minutes per match scores than others. 


The sheet contains a instructions page, it is fairly straight forward to use but if you do require any support please CLICK HERE 


What is equal playing time in football?


We recommend all clubs committed to equal playing time/equal positional play advise coaches within the club to use these sheets. 


We recommend all coaches working in youth football utilise this sheet.
