What a softball app should do for your team
Enough players, every game
Rec softball lives and dies on whether you have enough players. Every game asks the team who's in, reminders go out on their own, and with PRO players just reply Yes or No to a text.
Still short? Invite spares from your list by email, push or text (PRO), with a fee if you charge one, and accept them from the waitlist.
See how finding a sub works →Batting order and positions
Softball teams get a batting order alongside field positions. Build it from the players who said yes, reuse last game's order, and post it to the team chat or print it for the dugout.
See how lineups work →League fees, duties and stats
Track league fees, tournament entries and jersey money per player. With PRO, BenchApp sends the payment reminders for you. Hand out the scorebook, balls and cooler so the same person isn't doing it every week.
Save the final score in seconds or keep score live with the Scorekeeper (PRO). Player stats are free and fit softball.
