Rugby union game day: from 7s to the full XV, it runs itself.

Yes — rotation pools. Tag your front row, back five and backs, and Kickd pairs each replacement within the same group, so a prop is replaced by a prop rather than by whoever is next on the bench. Front row is deliberately its own group: props and hookers are specialist positions and the laws expect suitably trained front-row cover, so this is the one sport where the pairing reflects a rule rather than a preference. Kickd flags a mismatch rather than blocking the substitution, because the coach and referee make that call, not an app.

Yes. The match clock is anchored to real time, so backgrounding the app, locking the phone or stepping away for photos never stops it — the time is right when you come back, and a live match timer sits on your lock screen on both iPhone and Android.

Every Rugby AU Kids Pathway format is built in: 7-a-side for U6–U8, 10s, 12s, and the full fifteen — the field view and positions grow with the age group.

Rolling subs are two taps on the live field view, with rotation alerts when a change is due and running minutes per player — there are no interchange caps to babysit in the Kids Pathway, so Kickd focuses on keeping game time fair without the clipboard.

Every player's minutes count up live as the clock runs — field and bench — and lineups auto-fill to put the players with the least season game time on first. Every match stores a fairness record, so fair game time is a number you can show, not a guess.

Tries, conversions, penalty goals and drop goals with made and missed kicking stats. From U13 up, with Team Stats: carries, tackles, missed tackles, turnovers won, line breaks, kicks, errors and penalties conceded — with Player of the Match voting after the final whistle.

Yes. Kickd works fully offline on the sideline, on the phone or tablet you already own — no GPS units or extra hardware.

Yes — Kickd Callout, included in every plan at every age group, logs the match hands-free on a Bluetooth headset (a boom mic like the Shokz OpenComm 2 for match day); on the phone or tablet mic you tap to listen for each call. Say "try nine" or "conversion nine" and the match updates. Recognition runs on-device and works offline once the voice pack is downloaded.

Under Rugby Australia's Kids Pathway the team grows with the age group: 7-a-side at U6 to U8 (tag at U6 and U7, tackle from U8), 10-a-side at U9 and U10, 12-a-side at U11 and the full fifteen from U12. Kickd's field view and positions follow the same ladder, with official 1 to 15 numbering on the XV.

Two halves at every age, and associations set the half length. Kickd's defaults are 10 minutes at U6 and U7, 15 at U8, 20 at U9 to U11, 25 at U12 to U14, 30 at U15 and U16, 35 at U17 and U18 and 40 at Opens, with period chips around each default. The Kids Pathway Laws list player movements as unlimited from U6 to U12; from U13 check your competition, since some cap movements from U15.

Your first 3 matches are free at the full Team Stats level, so you see everything before paying anything. After that a Team Pass is $19.99 per team, per season: the live match clock, substitutions and rotations, fair game time, lineups, tries, conversions, penalty goals and drop goals with made and missed kicks, Player of the Match and the free parent live view — all of it callable by voice with Kickd Callout. Team Stats is $49.99 per team, per season and adds the full rugby union stat set — carries, tackles, missed tackles, turnovers won, line breaks, kicks, errors and penalties conceded from U13 — and widens what Callout hears to match; a coach on a Team Pass can try it free for 14 days, once. A Performance Analyst logging for a Team Stats team gets the full set with no pass of their own. Parents and supporters are always free, and a club buys one plan that covers every team, priced per sport on the pricing page.
