Grow into it

Start with the plays. Add the rest when you need it.

Most coaches begin with the Animator because it takes two minutes to be useful. When you want the squad, the training week and matchday selection, you move up — your plays come with you.

  1. Start

    Animator + Playbook

    Design moves on a rugby pitch, animate the timing, and keep them in an organised Playbook. Every World Rugby law is searchable alongside it.

    R149 / month · unlimited saved plays
  2. Then

    Solo Coach

    Add the week around the plays: your squad, player ratings and availability, 127 built-in drills, the Weekly Planner, Game Plan and a Matchday 23 that exports a real team sheet.

    R199 / month · one coach, one team
  3. Later

    Organisation

    Run several teams under one programme: shared drill and play libraries, coach assignments, multi-team oversight and a Programme Dashboard across the whole club or school.

    From R399 / month · 4 to 24 teams

Move up whenever you're ready. Everything you've built stays exactly where it is.

Platform

Everything the week needs, already in the box.

127 coaching drills across eight categories, every World Rugby law from 1 to 21 searchable alongside your plays, and twelve connected modules that share the same squad. You are not starting from an empty screen.

Workflow

Monday you plan it. Saturday you pick it.

The week runs in one direction: see who is fit, decide what to train, prepare the opponent, name the 23, then start the next week from what actually happened.

From coaches

Coaches who use it every week.

“It has completely changed how I communicate plays with my players.”

RugbyAxis has become a really useful part of my coaching. The Rugby Animator makes it easy to put a move together and show players exactly what we are trying to achieve. A very practical platform for any rugby coach.

Callum Whitmore Rugby Coach

“A great way to bring structure to our coaching.”

RugbyAxis gives us a much better way of organising our coaching throughout the season. Being able to plan training, manage our squad and create plays in the same platform makes a big difference.

Talk to us
Before you ask

The questions coaches actually ask.

Do I need a card to start the trial?

No. You get 7 days of the full workspace without entering any payment details. We only ask for a card if you decide to carry on at the end of the trial.

What happens to my plays if I stop paying?

Nothing is deleted. Your workspace locks when the subscription period ends, and everything — plays, squad, drills, plans — is exactly where you left it if you come back. If you cancel, you keep full access until the period you've already paid for runs out. If you'd rather your data was permanently erased, email us and we'll do it.

How long before it's actually useful?

The Animator needs no setup at all — you can build a play on this page right now. The team tools need your squad entered before the dashboard, planner and Matchday 23 have anything to work with, so have your player list handy when you start.

Do my players need accounts or an app?

No. There are no player logins, nothing for your squad to install, and no per-player fees. You export a play as video or an image and send it straight to your players — and an animated move lands where a photo of a whiteboard doesn't. Team sheets export as documents the same way.

Is this overkill for a small club?

It can be, if you start in the wrong place. A coach running one team rarely needs the organisation tier. Start on Animator or Solo Coach — they're built for exactly that — and only move up if you end up running several teams.

Can I change plan later?

Yes. You can move up a tier at any time from inside your account, and your existing work carries across untouched.

Is there a limit on how much I can save?

No. Saved plays are unlimited on every plan, and custom drills are unlimited on Solo Coach and above.

Get started

Try it for a week. Decide after that.

Seven days of the full workspace — squad, training week, playbook, game plan and Matchday 23. We only ask for payment details if you decide to stay.
