How It Works

From First Registration to Final Roster

Six steps, one system. Every one of them feeds the next.

  1. Registration

    Share a link, QR code, or custom registration page. Families sign up online and add the tryout to their calendar.

  2. Evaluation

    Build an evaluation plan from your own drills and criteria. Every coach scores the same things the same way.

  3. Scoring

    Coaches score from their own phones at their own stations. No clipboards to collect, no sheets to retype.

  4. Rankings

    Scores roll up into leaderboards by drill, by criteria, and overall — with every coach's ratings side by side.

  5. Roster Selection

    Draft players straight onto your team. Share family reports with everyone who tried out.

  6. Player Development

    Evaluations stay attached to the player, so what you saw at tryouts guides the season ahead.

Stop trying to remember who stood out. Everything you see during tryouts becomes part of the player's record.

What's Included

The Tryout System Built for Coaches

Everything you need to run an organized tryout and make decisions you can explain.

Online Registration

A public registration page for every tryout, with a shareable link and a printable QR code. Families register without an account.

Custom Evaluation Plans

Choose the drills, criteria, and scoring scale. Reuse the plan for the next tryout instead of rebuilding it.

Drill-Based Evaluations

Score each player at each station so a strong arm and a weak bat show up as two numbers, not one impression.

Multiple Coaches Scoring

Invite your staff to evaluate together. Compare coach ratings before you make a cut.

Player Rankings

Leaderboards by drill, criteria, and overall — sortable, filterable, and ready for the roster meeting.

Notes & Observations

Capture what the numbers miss. Notes stay on the player, visible to the whole staff.

Reports for Staff & Families

Staff reports for decisions, family reports for the players who tried out. Both generated for you.

Printable Scoring Sheets

A paper backup for every station, so a dead battery never stops the tryout.

Tryout to Roster

Draft the players you select straight onto your team, with their evaluations already attached.

Tryouts and evaluations are included with Pro and Elite plans. Registration pages are free for families — no account or app required.

Everything Connects

Your tryouts shouldn't end when you select the team.

Keep those evaluations attached to the player and use them to guide the season ahead. Every score, ranking, and note becomes the start of a development record.
