You can see what each kid needs. Keeping track of it is the hard part.
One player steps out on the curveball. One cannot find the ball off the bat. One finally got their throw down last week and you have not built on it since.
Then comes the question: “What are we working on tonight?”
You can spend the evening searching for drills and still wonder whether they fit the players you have. Or fall back on the same routine, and the things you noticed never turn into anything.
You care about doing a good job. You deserve practical support that helps you do it.
Give your players a clear path forward.
Built by youth baseball coach Clint Losch, BenchCoach helps you turn what you notice about your players into something you can take to the field.
Whether you're helping your own child or coaching an entire team, the work carries forward: what you record about a player informs the practices you build and the advice you get back.
You bring your knowledge of the kids. BenchCoach helps you organize what to do next.

See what you could take to your next practice.
A plan lays out how the activities fit together, what each drill involves, and what to focus on while coaching it. Build one for your team, change what you want, and save it.
Ask the question you'd ask another coach.
A player who flinches at the ball. A skill that is not clicking. A practice that keeps running long. Ask about it, read what comes back, and decide what fits the kids in front of you.
Development is a loop, not a one-off practice.
What you notice about your players shapes what you work on. What you work on gives you something new to notice.
Know your players
Capture strengths, challenges and what you saw at practice. Team and player notes keep your observations in one place instead of in your head.
Target the right skills
Turn those needs into a development plan for a player, or a practice built around the skills your team needs most.
Build on the work
Record what happened and advance a player when you judge they are ready. Your notes and your season so far feed back into the plans and advice you get next.
Spend practice helping your players take the next step.
There's a difference between arriving with a few drill ideas and arriving with a plan you understand.
You know what the session is for. You know what you're teaching. And when a player needs extra help, you have somewhere to start.
That leaves more of your attention for the moments you signed up for: a kid making a clean catch, trying again after a mistake, or finally understanding what you've been teaching.
Make room for more of those moments. Start with a plan for your next practice.
Working with your own player? Start here, too.
Find drills and coaching guidance for the skills your child wants to work on. Whether you're planning backyard practice or looking for a different way to explain a skill, BenchCoach can help you prepare.
