How MyTools Helps You as a Youth Soccer Coach
Fourteen side tasks that surround coaching a youth soccer team, each solved by a free in-browser MyTools tool: forms, team photos, goal clips and more.
Coaching a youth soccer team is mostly soccer. Teaching ten-year-olds to receive a ball on the half-turn, reshaping a back three when your centre-back is home with a cold, talking a parent down from the touchline after their kid gets subbed. That part you signed up for.
The rest is paperwork and file formats. Health forms every player has to return before the first whistle of the season. A weekend of tournament receipts for the club treasurer. The squad photo for the league newsletter, sideways and three megabytes too big. A goal from Saturday buried somewhere in an eighteen-minute clip that a parent filmed in portrait.
Here are fourteen of those side tasks, each with the free in-browser MyTools tool that clears it off your plate. No installation, no account, nothing uploaded to a server. These are the small online tools for youth soccer coaches that hand the evening back.
The Annual Health-and-Image-Rights Form
Every player starts the season the same way: a health-and-image-rights declaration that has to come back signed before they can train. Printing twelve copies, chasing twelve parents, then scanning twelve returns is a week you do not have.
Fill PDF lets each parent type straight into the form fields in a browser and download the finished copy, with no printer in the loop. You set the club and team name once, send the rest blank, and the boxes land exactly where the league put them.
One Packet for the Club Secretary
By the second week you have a folder of registrations, consent forms, and the coaching roster as separate files, and the club secretary wants them as one document.
Merge PDF combines them in the order you choose. Drag the roster to the top, the consent forms after, and download a single packet. You reorder by moving the thumbnails, so the secretary opens one file instead of fourteen.
Just the Under-13 Fixtures from a 40-Page Handbook
The league sends a forty-page season handbook. You need four pages of it: the under-13 fixture list and the ground addresses.
Extract PDF Pages pulls exactly the pages you pick into a new file you can pin in the team chat. Type the range, watch the preview update, and download only the part that matters instead of forwarding the whole handbook every Friday.
A Weekend of Receipts, Too Big for the Treasurer's Inbox
Tournament weekend leaves you with petrol, parking, and a round of post-match oranges, all scanned into one heavy PDF the treasurer's inbox bounces.
Compress PDF shrinks the file, often by most of its size, while the receipts stay readable enough to reconcile. You drop the file in, pick a compression level, and download something that actually sends.
Twelve Player Photos, Twelve Different Sizes
The team-sheet template wants headshots at one size. What you got was twelve photos from twelve parents' phones, every one a different shape and resolution.
Resize Image takes the whole batch and brings them to the same dimensions in a single pass. Set the width once, keep the aspect ratio locked, and download a set that finally drops into the template without each photo needing a nudge.
The Squad Photo for the League Newsletter
The newsletter editor asked for the squad photo at a specific crop, and yours has half a car park down one side.
Crop Image gives you a live frame to drag over the part you want, with preset ratios if the newsletter needs a fixed one. You see the result before you commit, so the kids stay centred and the car park is gone.
The Photo That Came as HEIC
One parent's iPhone sent the action shot as a HEIC file, and the league's upload portal only takes JPG. It will not even open on the club laptop.
Image to JPG converts it in the browser and hands back a standard JPG every site accepts. Drop the HEIC in, download the JPG, and the portal stops complaining.
One Face That Has to Stay Off the Internet
Image rights are not optional with children. One family opted out, and their child is right in the middle of the team photo you want to post.
Blur Image lets you blur that one face and leave the rest sharp, with a brush you draw over the spot. The photo still goes up, the one child stays unrecognisable, and you have honoured the form their parent signed.
Drawing the Back Three on a Screenshot
You paused the match footage on a still where the defence stepped up too late, and you want to show the back three exactly where they should have been.
Draw Red Circles puts circles, arrows, and text on a screenshot so the point lands without a paragraph of explanation. Mark the three positions, add an arrow for the run, and drop it in the team chat before the next session.
A Thirty-Second Goal Clip for the Group Chat
The goal happened around the eleven-minute mark of an eighteen-minute clip, and nobody is scrubbing through that to find it.
Trim Video lets you set the start and end on a timeline and export just those thirty seconds. The preview plays your selection before you save, so the parents get the goal and not the goal kick that came before it.
The Goal Someone Filmed Sideways
The best clip of the season is sideways, because the dad who filmed it held the phone upright.
Rotate Video turns it the right way up and saves it without re-encoding the whole thing to mush. One tap to rotate, a preview to confirm, and the celebration is no longer playing up the side of everyone's screen.
The Highlight Reel the Team App Won't Accept
You cut a two-minute highlight reel and the team app rejects it for being over the size limit.
Compress Video re-encodes it smaller at a quality you choose, so it slips under the cap without turning the players into pixels. Pick the target, let it run in the tab, and post the reel the parents have been asking for.
Background Music for the End-of-Season Slideshow
The end-of-season slideshow runs three minutes. The song you want is four and a half, and you only need the chorus and the last verse.
Trim Audio cuts the track to the exact length the slideshow needs. Set the in and out points on the waveform, export, and the music ends when the last photo does instead of fading out halfway through the awards.
The Sign-Up Link No Parent Will Type
Next season's registration lives behind a long club URL that no parent is going to type from a flyer on the clubhouse wall.
QR Code Generator turns that link into a code they scan with a phone camera, ready to print on the flyer or drop in the newsletter. Paste the URL, download the code, and the sign-ups come to you.
Fourteen forms, photos, clips, and conversions. None of it is coaching. All of it sits in the same week as the Tuesday session and the Saturday fixture, quietly eating the time you meant to spend on the actual team.
Move that admin into a browser tab and the evening comes back. The half-hour you would have spent fighting a file format goes back to planning the session, or to watching the squad warm up in the last of the light. That is the part you signed up for.
