Why coaches switch

Spreadsheets and group chats were not built for basketball.

01

One app, the whole program

Roster, fixtures, season fees, chat and stats together. Stop running the club across WhatsApp, paper and four other tools.

02

Built for basketball only

Quarters, fouls, bonus, box scores and England Basketball licence fields. Not a generic sports club template with basketball stickers.

03

Less admin on matchday

RSVPs, fee reminders and live scoring that feed season stats, so volunteer coaches spend time coaching.

The bit nobody else has

Score the game.
Not a spreadsheet.
Live, on the sideline.

Run5 is the only team app with a real scorer's table built in. Tap the stat, not a calculator: points, rebounds, assists and fouls update the score and box score in real time, for every player, every quarter. Share the result card, keep a local draft on device, and mirror a public TV board with no private data.

Coach & player home

Season overview, fee progress, next event RSVP, matchday card and notifications. Coaches get quick actions; players see what matters next.

Team & roster

Team profile, invites by code or link, roster CSV import, staff roles, season goals, coach notes and player profiles. Run up to 5 squads under one club with Run5 Pro, switch squads in one tap, and run A and B teams from one roster.

Events & RSVP

Create games and training, cancel when needed, and collect Yes, Maybe or No with late, limited and injured options. Attendee lists, squad size warnings and push reminders before tip.

Matchday & lineup

Next game card with Going count, starters and bench, Game Day templates and Spotlight with roster photos, plus a pre-game sheet for opponent, tip, five, focus play and strategy.

Live scoring

FIBA scorekeeper with clock, quarters, fouls, timeouts, full box score, optional shot zones, subs, undo, period scores and branded Player of the Game / result share cards. Works with no signal: the result uploads when you’re back online. Public TV board with no private data.

Season & form

Season results board (team vs opponents), leaderboards for PPG, APG and RPG, hot and cold form, wins and losses, matchup notes and film feedback. Every scored game feeds season stats.

Player fees

Season fee tracking, bank details with unique references, player claims, manual logs, fee push reminders and extra requests for kit or trips. Card and Apple Pay when Stripe is Active — players pay the advertised fee; Run5’s fee comes from the team payout. Admins can also collect in person with Tap to Pay on iPhone (Free, after Stripe Active).

Club finance

Coach side income and expense tracking, budgets, reports, PDF export and club documents so policies and money stay clear without a separate folder.

Team chat

Team chat, coach voice, announcements with pin, quick reactions, unread badges and chat push. Keep the squad and staff in one thread.

Playbook & practice

Upload plays and drills as files or links, tag and filter them, build practice plans, view plays courtside and use diagram playback for phase plays.

England Basketball licences

Licence number and expiry on each profile, a coach licences dashboard with reminders, and match sheet PDFs with names and licences.

Club directory

Opt in public listing to find opponents, propose and accept shared linked matches, and show a linked badge on matchday.

Tap to Pay on iPhone. No card reader.

Take training subs, match fees and open-run payments at the door. Players tap a contactless card, Apple Pay or Google Pay on your iPhone, and the receipt lands in Payments.

Just taking money at the door? Use Collect mode. It’s payments only, so you don’t need to put your whole team on the app first.

Coach awards

Boost morale and confidence after every session.

Coaches give awards that show on the player profile and in chat, then expire after a set window. Game ball, Man of the match, Hustle chip, Energy and more.
