Organize sessions

Once you have built a lot of sessions, the list quickly becomes a lot to scroll through. Planr has two tools for keeping the session list tidy: pin the sessions you use often, and group them in whatever way makes sense to you.

Sessions and drills

Pin your most important sessions to the top

Each session card has a pin button. Tap it to pin the session. Pinned sessions gather in their own section called Pinned sessions at the top of the session list, and they stay there regardless of search, filter and sorting.

Patterns that work well:

  • Standard templates. Pin a good technique session or standard warm-up, and copy from it each week instead of searching.
  • Active projects. Pin the sessions you are working on right now, so you don't have to scroll.
  • Inspiration. Pin some sessions you admire, so they are always handy as a reference.

Tap the pin button again to unpin. Pinning is personal, so the sessions you pin are only visible to you.

Group the sessions

Above the session list you find «Group by». It splits the sessions into sections based on a property, so long lists become manageable.

You can group by:

  • Theme (e.g. technique, tactics, conditioning)
  • Intensity
  • Month created or month last used
  • Subtheme, phase or age
  • Source (own, the club's, public)
  • Creator

Pick «None» when you'd rather have all sessions in one clean list sorted by date or name.

Examples of practical setups

  • Coach several teams at the same age? Group by Theme to see where you have covered technique, defense, scoring and so on.
  • Want to reuse last year's season? Group by Month last used to find what you ran the previous season in the same period.
  • Building a template bank? Group by Creator and keep your own sessions separate from shared ones.

Tips

  • Combine grouping with search and the theme filter to narrow down further.
  • Pinned sessions override all filters, so you can experiment with search and still reach your favorites in one click.
  • Keep session names consistent. «Shooting after breakthrough» is easier to find than «Wednesday session».
