Start writingThe team came out flat in the first ten minutes. We fixed it by shifting to a 2-3-1 and asking the wide mids to drop in when we lost the ball.
What I noticed: Maya tracked back every time she lost it. That is the habit we are building.
Tuesday we work on receiving on the half-turn. We will be different in two weeks.

Hobbit AI is a soccer coach AI built for youth football coaches working with players aged U5 to U18. It generates training session plans with SVG drill diagrams, manages teams and rosters, produces player portraits and graphic design for clubs, writes match reports, and answers coaching questions grounded in DGC (Decision-making, Game-related, Creativity) methodology and national federation frameworks (US Soccer, FA, KNVB, DFB, RFEF, FFF).
Yes. With deep thinking off, chat is free and unlimited for any signed-in coach, so you can ask training and coaching questions all day without spending a credit. Every new account also gets 160 starting credits for the deeper work: deep-thinking chat, full session plans with SVG drill diagrams, player portraits, and design. Heavier users (clubs, academies, full season planning) can buy more credits when they run low. The Academy, Guides, and Tools libraries are free to read without an account.
Hobbit AI supports the full youth range from U5 to U18. The session generator adjusts complexity, drill length, and tactical depth to age: U5 to U8 sessions stay short and game-based, U9 to U12 introduces tactical themes inside small-sided games, and U13 to U18 layers phase-of-play work, position-specific coaching, and longer scrimmages. Every output is age-appropriate by default.
Hobbit AI takes a plain-language prompt (for example, "U10 passing session, 16 players, 60 minutes") and produces a complete four-phase training plan: warm-up, technical, skill, and game. Each phase includes drill instructions, SVG pitch diagrams with player and ball movement, age-appropriate progressions, coaching points, and timing. Sessions follow game-based learning principles aligned with US Soccer Play-Practice-Play and similar federation models.
No, Hobbit AI is a tool for coaches, not a replacement. The platform handles session design, drill diagrams, team admin, and content creation so coaches spend less time on planning and more time on the pitch. The coaching itself, the relationships with players, the in-session decisions, and the long-term player development still depend on a real human coach. Hobbit AI is designed to make a good coach better, not to make a coach unnecessary.
Hobbit AI supports 8 languages: English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Vietnamese. The app interface, AI responses, generated sessions, drill descriptions, and coaching articles are all available in each of these languages. Coaches can switch languages at any time and prompts in one language can produce responses in another for multilingual clubs.
Hobbit AI is purpose-built for youth football; ChatGPT is a general-purpose tool. The deepest difference is what we optimise for: Hobbit's #1 training objective is developing Game Intelligence (the term Horst Wein coined and that federations like DFB, RFEF and KNVB list as their top youth priority), teaching young players to read situations, decide, and act under real match pressure. ChatGPT has no such anchor and gives generic football advice. In product terms: Hobbit turns one sentence into a full four-phase session plan with age-appropriate progressions enforced by default (ChatGPT gives the same tactical depth to U6 and U16), and pairs it with real SVG drill diagrams (ChatGPT cannot draw football pitches), all grounded in DGC methodology and federation training models (ChatGPT improvises). And Hobbit is not just a chat box: session design, drill diagrams, team management, player portraits, club graphic design, and match writing live inside one AI agent.
