For scorekeepers

Score your first play with your voice

0:18

Hold one button, say the play out loud, and watch it land in the scorebook. Your eyes never leave the field.

Fix a play you called wrong

0:16

Tap the last play and say what really happened. It re-reads the play, nothing starts from scratch.

Too loud to talk? Tap it

0:16

When the crowd drowns out your voice, tap ball, strike, and foul on the count. Same scorebook, same stats.

Softball, same app

0:16

Fastpitch or slowpitch, the voice scoring and scorebook work the same. Softball rules handled under the hood.

For parents

See your kid's stats, free

0:16

Every play you log rolls up into a full season line for every player. Batting, pitching, your kid highlighted. No paywall.

Follow your kid's team

0:15

Can't make every game? Follow the team and their scores and your kid's stats come to you.

Stream the game, save the clips

0:16

Go live with one tap and anyone can watch free. A Bleacher Pass adds the replay and turns the big plays into clips you can share.

Recaps that read like a story

0:16

A plain-English recap after every game, plus a season recap that shows how your kid actually grew.

Follow one player

0:16

Grandparent or scout? Follow a single player and their line comes to you. Parent-controlled; kids stay private.

See where they hit it

0:16

Every ball in play mapped on the field. Pull side, oppo, gaps. Built from the plays you scored, not guesswork.

For coaches

Create your team in three taps

0:17

Name it, add a roster, invite a parent. Three steps from nothing to ready for first pitch.

Build a fair lineup

0:15

Set the batting order and a position for every spot. Everyone bats, positions rotate, fair playing time handled.

Exchange lineups with one code

0:15

Share your lineup with a code or QR, and the other coach's comes right back, ready for the Dugout to scout.

Read the Dugout

0:16

Between innings, the Dugout hands you plain-English calls: matchups, pitch counts, and trends. Answers, not charts.

Bring your season from GameChanger

0:16

Switching from GameChanger? Export a CSV, drop it in, and your roster and stats carry over. No retyping.

Invite a parent to help

0:16

Email a parent a magic link. They tap it and land on your roster, no password to set up. Share the scoring load.

Unlock the Dugout

0:16

Scoring and full stats stay free. The Dugout adds matchups, recaps, and growth analysis. $49/yr parents, $99/yr coaches.

Mark a player not playing

0:16

Someone out for a game? Mark them not playing just for that game. The lineup adjusts and they're back next time.

Tournaments

Run your own tournament

0:17

Name it, pick a format, seed your teams, and generate the bracket. Single elim, round robin, or pools.

Invite another coach's team

0:15

Email a coach a link or share it any way you like. They pick which team to bring, and you see who's joined.

Accept a tournament invite

0:15

Got an invite link? Open it, pick the team you're bringing, and you're in the bracket with updates coming to you.

Getting started

0:16

Got an invite? Tap your kid on the roster once and their stats follow you all season.

What is Bleacher Notes?

The 20-second version: say the play out loud, it lands in the scorebook, and you never look away from your kid.

Keep the team on the same page

0:16

Times, lineups, and snack duty in one team thread, right next to the roster instead of a runaway group text.
