Embed an Interactive Football Tactic on Your Website
One iframe puts a live, animated tactic in your article, newsletter or club site. Readers press play; the frame links back to the full breakdown. No plugin, no sign-in, no cost.

A real community play, embedded on this page with exactly the code shown beneath it. Press play.

The embed code
Every public play has this snippet in the sidebar of its page. The iframe is the play; the line beneath it is a plain, crawlable link that credits the author and lets readers open the board.
How embedding works
Publish a play from the board to the community library and it gets a public page, an oEmbed document and the embed code above. Paste the code into any page that accepts HTML — a WordPress custom HTML block, a Ghost HTML card, a Substack or Beehiiv embed, a Webflow or Squarespace code block, your club's own site. The frame renders at up to 560 pixels wide and scales down to fit narrower columns, so it sits comfortably in a blog post or a newsletter without any styling from you.
Live, not a screenshot
The embed is the actual play. Readers press play and the sequence moves through its stages — the runs curve, the passes travel, the shape shifts — exactly as the author built it in the animation creator. If the author updates the published play, the embeds follow — there is no code to re-paste. It is an interactive tactic, not a GIF that goes stale.
Paste a link and let oEmbed do it
Platforms that support oEmbed — WordPress, Ghost, Notion, Discourse and many more — expand the plain link to a play into the embed when you paste it, the same way a YouTube link becomes a player. If your platform does that, you never need to touch the code.
Fast, private, free
The frame lazy-loads, so it downloads nothing until a reader scrolls near it, and it fetches only that one play's data and a lightweight renderer — no analytics, no cookies, no sign-in wall for your audience. Publishing and embedding are both on the free plan with no traffic limits. Because the play links back to its page on the board, an embed in a well-read article also sends readers to your published work.
When an embed is not the right tool
Embeds are drawn from the public library, so a tactic has to be published to be embedded. For a private analysis or a client report, export the board as a PNG or the animation as an MP4 and place the file instead — the board supports both, with your own logo on paid plans.
Frequently asked questions
How do I embed a football tactic on my website?
Open any play in the community library, find "Embed this play" in the sidebar and copy the code. Paste it into your page's HTML — a WordPress custom HTML block, a Ghost HTML card, a Substack or Beehiiv embed block — and the animated play appears at up to 560 pixels wide, scaling down to fit narrower columns.
Does the embedded tactic animate?
Yes. The embed is the live play, not a screenshot. Readers press play to watch the sequence move through its stages, and the frame carries a link back to the full breakdown.
Does it work with oEmbed?
Yes. Every public play publishes an oEmbed document, so platforms that support oEmbed — WordPress, Ghost, Notion, Discourse and others — expand the plain play link into the embed when you paste it. No code needed.
Is embedding free?
Yes. Publishing to the community is on the free plan and every public play can be embedded anywhere, with no traffic limits. Publishing requires an account; embedding does not.
Can I embed my own tactic privately?
Embeds are drawn from the public community library, so a play has to be published to be embeddable. If you need a tactic on your site without publishing it, export it as an MP4 or PNG from the board and place that instead.
Will the embed slow my page down?
The snippet uses a lazy-loading iframe, so nothing downloads until the reader scrolls near it. The frame loads only the one play's data and a lightweight renderer — no analytics, no cookies, no sign-in.
