Gilbert Digital Countdown Timer
The Gilbert Digital Countdown Timer is a compact timekeeping tool built for coaches, referees and players who need accurate timing at training or on match day. It suits rugby, netball, football, cricket fitness blocks and school sport sessions. Small enough to fit in your pocket, it is practical for sideline or gym use.
If you are running drills, managing halves or timing conditioning sets, this timer keeps things simple and reliable.
Built for Real Sporting Environments
This digital sports timer counts up or down to 99 minutes and 59 seconds, giving you flexibility for everything from short sprint intervals to full training blocks. Whether you are timing a 40 minute rugby half or repeat shuttle runs, you can set it and focus on coaching.
The magnetic back lets you fix it securely to metal surfaces such as goalpost padding frames, gym rigs or whiteboards. That matters on busy sidelines where loose gear gets knocked around.
The display is clear and easy to read at a glance, even when you are moving between groups.
