Features

What the founding beta has, and what comes later

Nothing here is dressed up. Every feature carries one of two labels, and the label is the honest answer to "can we rely on this on matchday?"

Status key

In the founding beta

Built and tested in the beta version of Matchday Basic. Only founding teams we admit use it, and it may change with their feedback. GrassrootsDriven is not open to the public.

Coming soon

Planned, not available. Listed so you know where we are going, not as a promise of dates.

Set up once

Enter it once, reuse it on every matchday and every graphic.

Team setup by invitation

In the founding beta

Each founding team is set up by invitation, with its own admin. There is no open sign-up.

Club branding

In the founding beta

Your crest and colours, used the same way on every graphic.

Squad and players

In the founding beta

Your players, positions and season shirt numbers.

A different number for one match only is not built yet.

Player photos and cut-outs

In the founding beta

Upload a photo and the background is removed automatically, on your own phone. You see the result before it is saved.

Planned fair-use limits: 10 MB a photo, up to 60 photos and 200 MB per team.

Player sponsors

In the founding beta

An optional sponsor for each player, shown on that player's graphics.

Season catch-up

In the founding beta

Add the results you have already played this season, even if all you know is the score. Anything unknown stays unknown; it is never shown as zero.

Before the match

Fixtures and match prep

In the founding beta

Your fixtures, then the available squad, Starting XI, subs and formation for each match.

Pre-Match, Available Squad and Starting XI graphics

In the founding beta

Drawn from the line-up you picked, in your crest and colours.

Download all

In the founding beta

Every graphic for a match in one download, with tidy file names, ready to post.

On matchday

A full matchday from one phone on the touchline.

Matchday Centre

In the founding beta

Press Start Match, then record goals and assists, yellow and red cards, substitutions, half time and full time.

The match record survives a page reload or a lost signal.

Corrections

In the founding beta

Got the scorer wrong? Correct an event after it is recorded, and the graphics follow.

Matchday graphics
