Dugout iPad
Up now, on deck, in the hole, next-inning positions, score, outs and the clock. Big enough to read from the bench. Needs a data connection. A phone hotspot works fine.
Coming soon Youth baseball game-day system
Every kid knows where to be.
DugoutDeck builds a batting order to score more runs, rotates fielding so every kid develops, and puts it all on an iPad in the dugout, run live by a parent on scorekeeper and DJ duty.

01 Batting order model
A batting order built to score next game.
Not alphabetical. Not a hunch. DugoutDeck learns from every plate appearance your scorekeeper logs, then searches thousands of orders for the one with the most expected runs.
- Trusts track records, not hot streaks: one big game won’t reshuffle the whole order.
- Tournament-aware: game two learns from game one.
- Plans around the clock: games end on time, so it counts how often each kid will really bat.
- Explains itself: see why each kid bats where they do.
- 1 Maya R. Table-setter
- 2 Leo S. Gets on base
- 3 June P. Contact hitter
- 4 Theo K. Gap power
- 5 Ava M. Drives them in
- 6 Nora B. Keeps the line moving
- 7 Sam T. Speed on the bases
- 8 Eli W. Moves runners along
- 9 Zoe H. Sparks the top of the order

02 Fielding optimizer
Fair rotations without the clipboard math.
Every inning, DugoutDeck solves the whole field at once, balancing your goals for each kid, who has played where all season, and the score.
- Set targets per kid: where they compete and where they’re developing.
- Season-long position shares keep playing time honest.
- Reads the scoreboard: up big, kids rotate into new spots. Close game, your best defense stays put.
- Swap anyone by hand, any time.
Sample
Big lead: kids get to try the spots they’re learning.
