Why Coaches Love Play Code Editor
Secret Communications
Only you hold the master sheet. Players see codes and colors, but opponents can't decipher your plays from the sideline. Play codes and descriptions are stored encrypted.
Randomized Every Game
One click generates a completely new layout. Each card is unique, making it impossible for opponents to predict your system.
Color-Coded Visuals
Assign colors to each play for instant recognition, or let our new Auto Color tool generate a full spectrum for you in one click.
Easy Configuration
Define your play code card desired size and printer margins. The system will automatically calculate the number of cards per page and the layout for your selected card format to mimimize waste.
Card Formats
Choose from several card formats and sizes based on your needs. Grids from 3×2 through 5×6 — 3×2 game-day PDFs are free; larger grids hold more codes. Choose 2 or 6 sections for easier reading.
Value!
This system is built to be easy to use and provide results fast. Spend your time coaching, not designing play code cards. 3×2 game-day PDFs are free. PCPacks and subscription options cover larger formats when you need them. See the Pricing page for details.

How It Works
Create Your Play Code Profiles
Create an unlimited number of profiles!
Play codes are 1-3 character codes (like "SB" for Steal Base). Assign colors for easy visual identification, or use Auto Color to have the system generate a full spectrum instantly. Build different profiles for offense, defense, and special situations. Adjust the frequency you want each play to appear on the cards. View the Count column to see how many times each play will be printed on the cards. The more frequent plays will appear more often, while less frequent plays will appear less often.
Preview & Customize
Get an idea how your cards will look before printing. Re-randomize anytime for a fresh layout. Adjust card size and print material margins to fit your printing needs.
Formats and sizes:
Print & Play
Generate PDFs for player cards and coach reference sheets. Print on cardstock or paper, cut, and distribute to your team. Keep the coach master sheet secure for game-time play calling. We recommend marking them as you call them during the game to keep track of which plays have been used and how many times.
Make the Site Yours
Add your organization and team names and logos, then pick a navigation menu color that matches your program. Your branding shows in the sidebar while you work — and can appear on coach call sheets when you print.
Set it once on your Profile page. No design tools required.
Example: custom nav color + org & team branding
- ✅ Organization name and logo
- ✅ Team name and logo
- ✅ Navigation background color (updates live)
- ✅ Optional branding on coach call sheet PDFs
Earn credits by referring coaches
After you buy a PCPack or subscription, share your referral code from Profile. When another coach also makes a purchase and redeems your code, you both get extra play-code and coach-call-sheet PDF download credits.
Details are on your Profile and the Pricing page.
Start Faster with Pre-Built Templates
Build every play list from scratch, or start from a pre-built template. Open the Play Code Editor, choose a ready-made template, and copy it into your own editable profile.
Templates help you get productive immediately, reuse proven play sets for common situations (offense, defense, special teams, and more), and stay consistent across staff — then customize codes, colors, and frequencies for your team. Your copy is fully yours; the original template stays unchanged.
Share Profiles with Your Staff
Export MPC Profile downloads a My Play Codes file with play codes, print size, and card format. Import MPC Profile brings that file into another account — a backup, a handoff to an assistant, or reuse across teams.
Already have plays in Excel, Google Sheets, or a text file? Use Import Other and paste only the play codes and descriptions. We do not import arbitrary spreadsheet files as CSV.
Security is #1
We know you trust us with your play codes, and we take that responsibility seriously. All play codes and descriptions are stored encrypted in our database, ensuring that even if some hacker were to gain access to our database, they would not be able to read your plays without the decryption keys which are securely managed using industry-standard encryption protocols. Have piece of mind knowing that your strategies are safe and secure with us.
