The Dugout
The Dugout is a team management platform for youth sports, with tools for coaches, players, families, and tournament directors. Coaches can manage rosters and schedules, send messages and announcements, run polls, collect RSVPs and attendance, and track team finances. Game tools include pitch-by-pitch scoring, live box scores and statistics, and pitch-limit tracking with automatic rest-day calculations and warnings. Practice plans, a drill library, scouting, pitching tools, recruiting profiles, and highlight reels support player development. Teams can import rosters and stats from GameChanger, TeamSnap, or CSV, and collect payments through Stripe. Payments collected in the app carry a 2.5% platform fee in addition to Stripe processing fees. Tournament Director covers registration, brackets, live results, umpire assignments, multi-field scheduling, and conflict detection. The Dugout lists baseball, softball, soccer, basketball, football, volleyball, lacrosse, hockey, and more, and runs on Android, iOS, and the web. Fan, parent, and player plans are free; coach access is $5.99 a month after a free trial, and tournament plans are $49.99 a month or $499 a year.
