Training

New and returning volunteer umpires working the 60-foot diamond — including the teenagers doing their first season.

• ▸72 lessons across five levels, 5–10 minutes each — stop and resume anytime
• ▸Positioning questions you answer by tapping the field diagram, not by picking from a list
• ▸Four repeatable modules: Positioning Practice, Division Differences, Safety Awareness, Ending the Game
• ▸Six self-guided field stations, every one of them runnable alone
• ▸A 35-question Final Knowledge Check, and a Certificate of Achievement at 85%

Umpires working softball, and baseball umpires picking up softball games — where a confident baseball instinct is the likeliest way to get a call wrong.

• ▸Baseball-to-Softball Differences: what carries, what does not, and what this course has not settled
• ▸Pitching Rules: the boundary cases where legal and illegal look almost identical
• ▸Pitching Limits: innings rather than pitches, and the questions it hands back to your league
• ▸Deliberately partial — blocks are added where the two rulebooks diverge, not to fill out a level map

Parents, team managers and anyone keeping the book for a rec, travel or league team, on paper or in an app.

• ▸70 lessons across five levels, 5–10 minutes each — stop and resume anytime
• ▸Score the Play: you pick the finished scorebook cell that records what happened
• ▸Five extras: the Hit or Error drill, plus Know Your League, Paper vs. App, Sport Differences and The Scorekeeper's Lane
• ▸Six self-guided live-rep stations you can run from the couch with a game on
• ▸A 40-question knowledge check, and a Certificate of Achievement at 85%

No account, no course — built to pin to a phone home screen and open one-handed mid-game.

First-time and returning volunteer coaches at any age group, in any organization, with or without playing experience.

• ▸Five levels, three cross-cutting modules and two repeatable drills — 54 lessons, 871 screens, free start to finish
• ▸Thirty practical reps in six stations, all doable before you have a roster
• ▸A 40-question knowledge check with no pass mark — a self-check, not a credential
• ▸Draft Day: the three weeks before your first practice, where most of a season is decided
• ▸First Practice: running the group, built on one idea — a kid standing in a line is not practising
• ▸Game Day: lineups, substitutions, the dugout, umpires — and managing rather than teaching
• ▸The Long Season: playing time, the parent in the car park, injuries, and your own capacity
• ▸Actually Coaching: one cue at a time, teaching what you cannot do, and did any of it work
• ▸Cross-cutting: safety on your field, baseball vs. softball, and the youngest division
• ▸Two drills that draw a fresh mix every run — plan a practice, and is that fair to expect
• ▸Build a real session against a clock that does not move — every minute comes off another block
• ▸No numbers on pitch counts or rest — those differ by league, and the pitch count tool has yours
• ▸Takes no side on hitting or throwing mechanics, on purpose
