Made on the touchline

Ember started on a muddy Sunday morning, with a coach juggling a clipboard, three group chats and a spreadsheet of who had paid their subs. We built the app we wished we had: one place for fixtures, players and parents, so coaches can get back to coaching.

Fixtures and availability

Schedule matches and training, and know who's coming before you put the cones out.

Lineups and tactics

Drag players onto the pitch, share the team sheet and save formations for next week.

Club admin

Subs, consent forms and contacts for every team in your club, with the right access for every coach, player and parent.

Built for clubs at every level, from Sunday league to academy

We have a place for you

We're a small team of coaches, players and parents building the tools grassroots football deserves.

About Ember

Built for grassroots football, ready for the whole club

Most football is played by volunteers giving up their evenings and weekends. Ember takes the admin off their plate: fixtures, availability, lineups, team chat, subs and player development, in one app that coaches, players and parents can pick up in minutes.
