Sports Stopwatch
About the Sports Stopwatch
Every sport runs on the clock, but most coaching moments need a flexible stopwatch more than an official scoreboard. The sports stopwatch is the sideline generalist: big controls you can hit while watching play, laps for anything repeated, and a display assistants can read over your shoulder. Basketball coaches time defensive possessions to teach shot-clock awareness. Football staff clock tempo between plays in a hurry-up period.
How to use it
- Pin the sports stopwatch on the sideline device before warmup.
- Start at the first whistle and lap at each drill transition.
- Pause between blocks so the session total keeps accumulating.
- Use laps for repeated efforts - possessions, rotations, shifts.
- Review the lap trail after practice against the session plan.
Good to know
The stopwatch counts while this tab is open. A slept tab can pause or jump. For a race result you may need to keep the phone unlocked in your hand.
Frequently asked questions

Yes. Pause between blocks and the session total accumulates across the full plan.
Is it usable in direct sun?
At full device brightness the digits stay readable; shade the screen for very harsh glare.
Can an assistant record laps while I coach?
Yes. The recent-lap trail is designed for a clipboard scribe reading over your shoulder.
