About

Callback is the volleyball tryout evaluation app built for the gym floor. Rate a player in two taps without looking away from the drill, keep working when the Wi-Fi drops, and get your club's list from the spreadsheet you already use. Evaluate, rank, and build your rosters — all in one place. COURT-SPEED CAPTURE Tap a player, tap a score. That's it. The shirt-number grid puts every athlete a thumb away, skill focus keeps you on the drill you're actually running, and quick filters by position and wristband color narrow the floor in a second. Rate players without breaking eye contact with the court. WORKS OFFLINE — REALLY Gym Wi-Fi fails. Callback doesn't. Every rating is saved on the device the instant you enter it and syncs automatically when you're back online. Multiple evaluators can rate side by side and their scores merge cleanly. No spinner, no lost data, no "please reconnect." YOUR SPREADSHEET, NOT OUR FORM Import your tryout list from a CSV or spreadsheet export in an afternoon — names, ages, positions, shirt numbers, wristband colors, and check-ins come straight across. No rigid template to fill in, no re-keying your roster. The list you already built is the list you tryout with. RANK WITH CONFIDENCE See every athlete ranked by position-aware scoring — a setter isn't judged on passing. Open any player for a per-skill, per-evaluator breakdown and an age-group bell curve that shows exactly where they stand. Physical measurements (height, reach, block and approach touch) sit right alongside the skill scores. KNOW YOUR COVERAGE A live coverage view shows who still needs eyes on them before you make cuts — no athlete falls through the cracks because one evaluator ran out of time. FROM TRYOUT TO TEAMS Build rosters and track offers by age division, right where you evaluated. Move a player from the ranking straight onto a team, record offers and their status, and export the whole thing to a spreadsheet when you're done. 6v6 ON-COURT PLACEMENT Split your pool onto courts by position and rank for live 6-on-6 play, adjust on the fly, and watch the board update as scores come in. BUILT FOR CLUBS Invite your evaluators and admins, control who sees what, and run every age group from 12u to 18u. Callback is made for the way club volleyball tryouts actually run — fast, loud, and Wi-Fi-optional. Accounts are created by your club. Callback is free on iPhone and iPad; club subscriptions are handled separately by your club administrator. Questions? support@mckerinsoftware.com
