An alternative to FastBreak PlayBook with animated play design, a free Play Bank of hundreds of sets, a Practice Bank of complete practices, native Apple apps, shot charts, and a recordable whiteboard. Elite Hoops individual Pro is $59.99/year, compared with FastBreak’s $150 annual membership. Need the whole staff? An Elite Hoops Team Plan starts at $200/year with a private playbook and unlimited seats for coaches, players, and parents.
It depends on how your players will use it. To draw your sets, plan the practice around them, and send players a link they watch without an account, Elite Hoops is the better pick and costs less: individual Pro is $59.99 a year against FastBreak’s $150, and a Team Plan starts at $200 against FastBreak’s $250 team membership, as of October 2026. If you want to quiz players on your plays, FastBreak’s full team membership includes quizzes, and Elite Hoops doesn’t.
Start with your own toolkit, or bring your whole team into a shared playbook.

Both apps give you a library to start from. FastBreak has 600+ ready-made plays to edit. The Elite Hoops Play Bank has hundreds of animated plays organized by family, with coaching notes on every step, and the Practice Bank has complete practices you can print, both free to browse before you ever sign up. Already have a system you love? Bring it to life with animated plays, narrated whiteboard lessons, practice plans, and shot charts. Both subscriptions cost less: individual Pro, and a Team Plan that starts under FastBreak’s unlimited-user plan and includes Pro.
Recreate a familiar set, watch it move, and send the link to an assistant. FastBreak plays need to be rebuilt in the Elite Hoops editor, so try a few favorites before moving the rest of your library.
“All of our plays are shared with our players using Elite Hoops. If you can use a whiteboard, then you can already use Elite Hoops.”
Use Pro for your own coaching toolkit, or bring everyone into your private playbook with a Team Plan. Invite unlimited coaches, players, and parents with no extra charge per seat.
