    Free Flag Football Stat Tracker for Coaches

    If you need a free flag football stat tracker, start with the part that matters: Can it score a real game and produce useful player and team statistics without requiring a subscription?

    StatHawk can. Without Pro, a coach can score games live, build complete box scores, keep player and team totals, export standard game, player, and team-season PDF reports, export a completed game's full play-by-play as a CSV, share a read-only live link with families, generate a Game Recap for an eligible completed game, and export a MaxPreps-ready player-stat file for an eligible finalized high school game. StatHawk is currently available on iPhone and iPad.

    The App Store lists StatHawk as free with optional in-app purchases. Pro adds deeper analytics. It is not required to score games or keep the core stat record.

    What is included for free

    StatHawk's free product covers the full game workflow:

    • Create teams, seasons, rosters, and scheduled games.
    • Score games live from an iPhone or iPad.
    • Choose Classic Mode or Yardage Mode.
    • Record offensive, defensive, scoring, and turnover events.
    • Build player and team box scores.
    • Review player game logs and season totals.
    • Export standard game, player, and team-season PDF reports.
    • Export a completed game's full play-by-play as a CSV.
    • Generate a Game Recap for an eligible completed game while signed in.
    • Share a read-only GameView link with parents and fans.
    • Export a MaxPreps-ready player-stat file for an eligible finalized high school game.

    Points Per Drive is also available free. Most of the deeper player, team, play-calling, and season analysis is part of StatHawk Pro.

    Score the game in Classic Mode or Yardage Mode

    Not every team needs the same amount of detail.

    Classic Mode is the faster scoring option. It records the result of the play and the players involved without requiring yardage on each supported offensive play.

    Yardage Mode adds passing, rushing, and receiving yards. On a completed pass, the scorer selects the passer, receiver, result, and yardage. StatHawk applies that information to the passing and receiving lines in the box score. Rushes and sacks follow their own scoring flows.

    Both modes keep score, possession, downs, drives, and player attribution. First downs remain scorer-confirmed. Yardage does not automatically calculate an exact ball spot.

    Read the game-day stat tracking workflow for the full sequence from roster check through the final box score.

    What the free box score includes

    Every recorded play contributes to the game record. When the game is final, the box score can include:

    • Final score
    • Line score when the format uses periods
    • Team totals
    • Passing
    • Rushing
    • Receiving
    • Defense
    • Special teams when supported
    • Player scoring
    • Full play log

    The same game data feeds season totals and player game logs. A coach does not have to enter the final stat lines again in a separate spreadsheet.

    If you want a printable backup, compare the workflow in Flag Football Stat Sheet vs Stat App.

    Free sharing for parents and families

    StatHawk includes two different sharing options.

    GameView is a read-only browser link. Parents and fans can open it without downloading StatHawk or creating an account. It can show the score, game situation, play feed, and selected player and team statistics.

    Postgame outputs include a shareable summary, the box score, standard PDF reports, a full play-by-play CSV, and a Game Recap for an eligible completed game.

    GameView is not video. StatHawk does not record or stream the game.

    Free MaxPreps export for high school programs

    For an eligible finalized high school game, StatHawk can export a MaxPreps-ready player-stat file.

    This is a file export, not a sync, an API, or an automatic upload. The coach saves or shares the file and imports it through MaxPreps Team Admin. The file does not set the final score or game result in MaxPreps.

    Before the season, make sure every player has a valid, unique jersey identifier. Missing or duplicate identifiers can block the export. The complete sequence is covered in How to Export Flag Football Stats to MaxPreps.

    Does it work for youth and high school flag football?

    Yes. StatHawk includes preset formats for:

    • 5v5 Standard
    • 5v5 Air-It-Out
    • 6v6
    • 7v7 Girls High School
    • 7v7 Boys

    Custom format settings are also available. They should not be treated as automatic support for every league rule. Confirm the format, downs, scoring options, and other local rules before creating the season.

    For high school girls flag football, StatHawk includes rules-aware support for an NFHS baseline and a California CIF overlay. That includes differences in periods, zones to gain, punts, tries, penalties, and overtime for supported configurations.

    What happens if the field has poor service?

    If the device loses its connection during an active game, StatHawk can keep scoring that game. The coach can finish the game, and the pending data syncs later when the device is back on the internet.

    This is connection-loss protection during a game. It does not mean a coach can open StatHawk, sign in, or start a new game without an internet connection. GameView also cannot receive new information until the scoring device reconnects and syncs.

    What Pro adds

    The free version answers, What happened in the game?

    Pro goes further into patterns across games and seasons. Depending on the available data, Pro can add:

    • Team efficiency analysis
    • Player performance and development analysis
    • Play-calling tendencies
    • Season insights
    • The full Insights PDF export
    • AI Season Summaries

    Pro does not make the basic box score possible. It adds analysis to the game and season record that the free app already builds.

    What StatHawk does not claim to do

    A clear product fit matters more than a long feature list.

    • StatHawk is currently available on iPhone and iPad.
    • GameView is a live stat viewer, not video streaming.
    • Parents and players do not need StatHawk accounts to view a shared game.
    • MaxPreps uses a file export and manual import workflow, with no sync, API, connection, or push. The file does not set the final score or game result in MaxPreps.
    • First downs and important field-state decisions remain scorer-confirmed.
    • Yardage Mode does not create automatic GPS or exact-yardline tracking.
    • The app is built around the coach's team, not full player attribution for both teams.

    If those boundaries match what your team needs, the free product can carry the scoring and stat record for an entire season.

    FAQ

Without Pro you get live game scoring, core player and team statistics, box scores, standard game, player, and team-season PDF reports, a completed game play-by-play CSV, GameView, a Game Recap for an eligible completed game, Points Per Drive, and eligible MaxPreps-ready file exports.
