The app that runs your sessions and leagues — and turns every match into stats, ratings and bragging rights for the players who show up.
Free to use · No credit card required
Sessions and leagues land in a single feed — and every player builds a card from the games they actually turn up to.
Drag players into position, balance both sides by rating in one tap, and share the finished lineup straight to the group chat.
For players
Tap the link your gaffer drops in the group chat, pick your name, done. Claim a Gaffer ID later if you want your record to follow you.
No signup, no app install. A 4-digit PIN keeps someone else from marking you in.
Tally your goals and assists after the game. Your organiser confirms them before they count.
Appearances, wins, MOTMs and a rating that climbs the more you turn up — across every squad you play in.
Stop managing football in WhatsApp threads. Gaffer does it properly.
Drop a link in your group chat. Players tap to check in, and your squad fills up automatically. No more scrolling to count "I'm in" messages.
Stop fronting the pitch cost. Collect match fees seamlessly via Apple Pay or Google Pay. If they don't pay, they don't play.
Rate your players 1–5. Gaffer's snake-draft algorithm splits them into perfectly balanced teams in seconds—no more lopsided games.
Drag and drop players into position, assign captains, and export a clean lineup graphic straight to your WhatsApp group.
