Tryout Pro vs Sunrise Baseball

Tryout Pro is the complete tryout management tool for youth baseball and softball coaches. Set up a tryout, register players, evaluate skills with your coaching staff, and instantly rank your results — all from your iPhone. COACHES — CREATE & MANAGE TRYOUTS Set up tryouts in minutes with customizable evaluation criteria. Choose from six skill categories — Hitting, Fielding, Throwing, Pitching, Bunting, and Speed — each with detailed sub-skills. Select your preferred grading scale (1-10, 1-5, or qualitative) and configure age groups, birthday cutoffs, and public or private registration. REGISTER PLAYERS WITH EASE Share a registration link via text or email. Players and parents register for free — no account needed. Coaches can also add walk-in players on the spot. Set birthday cutoffs to automatically enforce age eligibility. Past tryouts are automatically closed to new registrations. EVALUATE WITH YOUR FULL COACHING STAFF Invite assistant coaches and evaluators by email. Each evaluator grades players independently, and Tryout Pro automatically averages scores across your entire staff for fair, unbiased results. Evaluate by player (grade one player across all skills) or by skill (grade all players on one category at a time). RANK & EXPORT RESULTS View instant player rankings sorted by overall average, individual categories, or specific sub-skills. Expand any player to see a full skill breakdown with color-coded score bars. Export a complete CSV report with rankings, contact information, and every evaluation score — ready to share with your coaching staff or organization. A separate player roster export is also available with just contact information.

Sunrise Baseball is the player evaluation app for youth baseball coaches: weekly skill ratings, tryout and draft preparation, position-weighted player rankings, and private progress reports for parents. RATE PLAYERS ON THE 6 TOOLS Evaluate hitting, power, speed, fielding, throwing, and attitude in about 60 seconds per player. Pitchers and catchers get dedicated battery ratings for velocity, control, blocking, receiving, and more. POSITION-WEIGHTED RANKINGS A simple average treats every player the same. Sunrise Baseball weights each skill by position — a center fielder's speed counts more than a first baseman's, and a pitcher's arm drives their rating — the same approach travel ball and showcase programs use, adapted for youth leagues. A SMARTER DRAFT Your draft board builds itself, ranked by composite score with tier badges (Elite, Strong, Average, Developing). Export it as a PDF for the draft meeting. Before the draft, every verified coach in your league sees the same league-wide valuations — everyone drafts from the same data. PRIVATE PARENT REPORTS Email each family their own child's progress report — parents only ever see their own child. Season-end summaries show growth across the year, top strengths, and offseason focus areas. BUILT FOR LEAGUES - Coaches join with a one-time invite code from a league administrator - Coaches can only edit their own team; league-wide ratings are read-only - Admins upload the league player pool from a CSV - Import team rosters from GameChanger CSV exports - Data syncs securely to the cloud across your devices A verified league account is required. Coaches: ask your league administrator for an invite code.
