Sharing Drills: The Complete Guide to Collaboration on CoachThem

Unlock Team Potential Through Seamless Drill Sharing

Great practices don’t happen in isolation—no matter the sport. Whether you're coaching hockey, lacrosse, or soccer, effective collaboration is key to team development. From assistant coaches to full associations, drill sharing helps align everyone around the same goals and philosophies.

Too often, coaches still rely on outdated methods like email attachments or printed diagrams. This fragmented approach wastes time and makes consistent development harder to achieve.

CoachThem simplifies collaboration with a powerful sharing feature that connects coaches and streamlines communication—helping you spend less time coordinating and more time coaching.

Why Drill Sharing Matters in All Sports

Whether you're building out zone entries in hockey, transition drills in lacrosse, or possession play in soccer, shared drills bring structure and consistency across your program. When coaches work from a shared system, players benefit from a more unified development path.

Benefits Across the Board:

Save hours each week by accessing and reusing shared drills and plans
Provide players with consistent learning as they progress across levels
Build stronger, more connected coaching teams and associations

How Sharing Works on CoachThem

On CoachThem, every drill or practice plan you create is first saved to your Personal Folder. From there, you can share a drill or share a practice plan with:

An individual coach
A team or a group
An entire association

All it takes is clicking the “Share” button at the top of your drill or plan and selecting who you’d like to share it with.

Anything that is shared with you can also be saved to your Personal Folder for future use or customization.

Sharing Outside the Platform

Need to share a practice plan with players or other coaches who don’t have a CoachThem account? No problem. You can download a PDF version of your practice plan directly to your device.

To do this:

Use the Print icon at the top of the practice plan
Navigate to the Printing Template tab
Select Download PDF

This feature is perfect for pre-practice planning, off-platform collaboration, or keeping a hard copy on hand.

Build a Culture of Collaboration

Drill sharing on CoachThem is more than a feature—it’s a mindset. When coaches across your program can easily access, use, and build on each other's ideas, the results speak for themselves: smoother practices, more confident players, and stronger teams.
