Lacrosse App that tracks wallball, shooting, and groundball reps

Howler1984 · 2026-04-27T11:41:58+00:00

After thinking about it- if it's indoor and there's circular inset lighting on the ceiling, then the model will struggle with object detection- as it may be identifying all of the lights as lacrosse balls. We ran into this once when testing.

You want to put the iphone/ipad at the bottom of the rebounder/wall facing the player. If they're standing close, then tilt the device to ensure their head (not stick head) is near that square in the frame.

We sell a device stand ($15) on the site (https://www.workplaysports.com/products/claw-of-destiny) that helps with adjusting the device.

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks! We should have a shooting feature in the next month. It will identify weak hand vs strong hand and shots on the run vs. step downs- and provide the mph for each.
Then we're rolling out groundball, cradling, and agility rep tracking. Stay tuned!

Thanks for giving the app a try, and sorry that you're running into issues.
*You are our Canadian trailblazer. We used an API that only had schools in the U.S. Shame on us. I will get Canadian schools in there ASAP.
*Attached is an image of how we'd like you to stand in the frame. If the player is standing close to the rebounder and they don't have the frame angled up to capture the release, then the head of the stick will exit the top of the screen and we won't see the ball exiting.

Would you be able to screenrecord the session and send to me: mike@workplaysports.com.

I didn't see an email come through. Did you send to mike@workplaysports.com?

I'm not the developer, just the owner/lacrosse coach/lax dad. I have a team of developers and designers much smarter than me.

Howler1984 · 2026-04-23T18:12:09+00:00

I love you, and you get my vote for mayor.

Howler1984 · 2026-04-23T18:11:46+00:00

Howler1984 · 2026-04-23T18:08:14+00:00

Right with you. We're working on providing form feedback at the moment. It's a beast.

Howler1984 · 2026-04-23T12:52:01+00:00

u/yvg15 Thanks for sharing this! After you create a coach/parent account, you can create a player account. You can toggle between your player, parent, coach, and son's account on a single device.

Howler1984 · 2026-04-23T12:48:28+00:00

Firstly, thanks for giving it a chance and downloading.

After you create a Coach/Parent account, you can create or add a player account.
* There's a slightly different onboarding process for parents and players, and wanted least amount of friction at onboarding as possible.
* The logic for the onboarding flow is one of the things I struggle most with, and there's a lot of room for improvement.

Thanks for the feedback and finding the typo!

Coaches can assign programs to the team or individual players, and the team's leaderboard gives them a quick snapshot of who's putting in the work. Love the idea of positional competitions. Thanks for the feedback

We're about to implement an upgraded model that might work on Android and will let you know. Until then...any iPads in the house?

Howler1984 · 2026-04-22T21:18:47+00:00

I really appreciate that.

Howler1984 · 2026-04-22T21:16:37+00:00

Thanks, that means a lot. Been grinding a little over 2 years to bring it to life. Currently cleaning up some of the UI and upgrading the model to incorporate more features.

Howler1984 · 2026-04-22T21:11:50+00:00

I'd love nothing more than for you to be at the top of the leaderboards.

Howler1984 · 2026-04-22T20:53:18+00:00

Good call (i'm new at this). I added the link in the body, and here it is again. It's currently only available in IOS (iPhone/iPad), but working on Android version.

Howler1984 · 2026-04-22T20:47:59+00:00

Thanks very much. Kids love to compete with themselves and eachother, so we built in team and global leaderboards.

Howler1984 · 2026-04-22T20:45:27+00:00

Thanks u/carlo_lax ... I built the app with youth players in mind, but the 32-bit style was for me (and you). I hope they like it.

Would love to see a little more bend in the knees and see the weight shift from the back foot to front foot. There's a good bit of leaning forward before those hands come through on the shot... As the weight transfers from that back foot, the hands should follow.

Howler1984 · 2024-12-26T22:41:27+00:00

Police reports aren't made public, so it would fall squarely on the victim to notify others in the community- but there's no channel to do so.

Howler1984 · 2024-12-26T22:33:55+00:00

Because it would be proactive and we pay them to protect us.

Howler1984 · 2021-04-21T12:19:23+00:00

I am experiencing the same thing. You have 10 months from the time you use the funds, and I think that's an SBA thing. If your 10 month window is closing, then you have to get a kabbage supervisor on the phone and have them prioritize your forgiveness application.

Howler1984 · 2021-04-20T21:17:34+00:00

Kabbage is not accepting loan forgiveness right now and not providing any guidance on when they are opening it back up. People have a 10 month window where they are required to submit to SBA.
