## Keep your film tools. Upgrade your playbook.

Keep Hudl for film, scouting, and recruiting. Bring your sets and practice plans to Elite Hoops, where you can draw the action, teach the read, and send it straight to your players. You can start as one coach and add a Team Plan when your staff needs in, without a sales call either time.

## Start with one familiar set.

Try a set you already teach. Add the cuts, screens, and notes, then send it to an assistant. You’ll need to recreate your FastDraw plays in the editor, so start with one before moving your library.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Elite Hoops a good FastDraw alternative?

Yes, especially if you want animated play design, practice plans, a drill library, shot charts, and native Apple apps together. Individual Pro is $59.99/year USD. Elite Hoops does not replace Hudl’s opponent scouting, recruiting databases, or film analysis.

### Does FastDraw animate plays too?

Yes, both apps animate plays. With Elite Hoops, your playbook sits alongside your practice plans, drills, and shot charts. Open the example play to see how players can watch the action and follow your notes, step by step.

### How much less does Elite Hoops cost than FastDraw?

Elite Hoops Pro costs $59.99/year USD for one coach. FastDraw pricing comes from Hudl’s sales team, so your savings will depend on your package. Have a FastDraw quote already? Put its annual cost next to Elite Hoops Pro.

### Do my players need an account or app to watch a play?

No. Send a public Elite Hoops link and players can watch in their browser without an account, app, or subscription. They can play the animation, move through each step, or read the storyboard. You control the link and can stop sharing whenever you want. You’ll need a coach account to create plays. Pro includes the full sharing and export tools.

### What can I use for free?

Create a free account to explore the included coaching resources and free tools. The complete toolkit, unlimited plays, cloud sync, and video, image, and PDF exports require Pro. Individual Pro is $59.99/year USD, with monthly and quarterly options too.

### Does one subscription work on my phone and computer?

Yes. Sign in with the same Elite Hoops account on the web and in the native iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Vision Pro app. Your Pro access carries across devices. Android coaches can use the web app in their browser; there is no native Elite Hoops Android app.

### Can I share a playbook with my coaches and players?

Yes, with a Team Plan. It includes a private playbook with no cap on seats and no extra charge per person: invite your coaches, players, and parents and they sign in to see that team's plays, practices, and drills. Coaches can edit, players and parents can view, and the people you invite never pay anything. A Team Plan starts at $200/year USD for one shared team and includes individual Pro for you. Without one, individual Pro still lets you send any play as a link, video, image series, or PDF.

### What if Elite Hoops isn't for me? Can I get a refund?

If you bought on the web, yes. Every online purchase comes with a 14 day money back guarantee. Email me at sup@daywellspent.io within 14 days of your purchase and I'll refund it. If you subscribed through the App Store, Apple handles the billing, so refund requests go to Apple directly (reportaproblem.apple.com). I can't see or approve those on my end, but Apple is usually quick about it.

## Give your players something worth watching.

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.
