THE PROBLEM

Junior sport should be the best part of the week.

Most kids play to have fun and be with their friends. But volunteer coaches get no plan, game time ends up uneven, the same kids land on the same teams, and team managers spend their week chasing oranges. When sport stops feeling fun and fair, kids stop playing.

GAME DAY

"The three on the bench go on."

That's all the parent on the bench needs to know. Halftime Oranges works out the rotation, counts down to every change and tells you exactly who's on and who's off. At the final buzzer, every child has played the same time. No maths, no arguments, no one left out.
