Coach Skip
Skip the lineup hassle
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Squeeze. Count. Coach. Log pitches with your iPhone's Action Button — phone locked, in your pocket, without taking your eyes off the game.
Every volunteer coach knows the feeling: it is 5:45 on game day, you are standing at the dugout with a clipboard, and twelve parents are watching to make sure their kid does not sit the bench two innings in a row. Again.
CoachSkip takes the stress out of lineup management so you can focus on what matters — coaching the kids.
THE SMART FILL ENGINE
Tap one button and CoachSkip builds your entire lineup for you. It automatically assigns every player to a field position while respecting your league's rules, each player's restrictions, parent preferences, and fair play guidelines. No more scratching out names on a napkin.
PITCH COUNTING FROM YOUR LOCK SCREEN
New in this release: track pitches without ever unlocking your phone. Start a pitcher and a Live Activity appears on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Tap + to log a pitch, tap – if you miscounted. See the current pitcher, inning count, and game total at a glance. Stand at third base, watch the game, and count — no more digging through your phone between pitches.
PITCH COUNT TRACKING WITH REST DAY COMPLIANCE
Enter pitches as they happen and CoachSkip handles the rest. It calculates mandatory rest days based on official Little League thresholds, flags when a pitcher is approaching their limit, and enforces no re-entry and catcher-to-pitcher restrictions so you never get caught off guard at a post-game protest.
SMARTER MID-INNING PITCHER SWAPS
Swap a pitcher mid-inning and CoachSkip handles the field for you. Bring in your left fielder to pitch, and your outgoing pitcher automatically slides into left — exactly like it happens in real life. Your batting order stays untouched.
BATTING ORDERS MADE EASY
Build batting orders manually, randomize them with a tap, or copy a previous game's order as your starting point. CoachSkip keeps it fair and keeps it fast.
FAIR PLAY RULES YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE
Set the rules that matter to your league and let the app enforce them for you:
Prevent back-to-back bench innings
Require every player to rotate through infield and outfield
Set maximum bench innings per game
Limit how many times a player repeats the same position
Protect your starting lineup when you need to
WORKS FOR EVERY LEVEL
Whether you are coaching Tee Ball, Farm, Minors, or Majors, CoachSkip adapts to your division's rules and roster size.
SEASON STATS AT A GLANCE
Track attendance, view stats broken down by player or by position, review pitching logs across the full season, and keep a running win-loss-tie record. When the board asks how the season went, you will have the answer.
SHAREABLE LINEUP CARDS
Generate a clean lineup card and share it with your assistant coach, team parent, or the scorer's table. No more deciphering anyone's handwriting.
INTERACTIVE BASEBALL DIAMOND
Drag and drop players directly onto field positions using a visual diamond. Mark players absent before the game and CoachSkip adjusts automatically.
MULTI-TEAM AND MULTI-SEASON SUPPORT
Coach more than one team? Manage them all in one place. Your data syncs across your devices with iCloud so your lineups are always with you — whether you are planning at the kitchen table or standing behind the backstop.
Built by a coach, for coaches. CoachSkip is the assistant you wish you had in the dugout from day one.
Download CoachSkip and take the clipboard out of coaching.

Action Button Pitch Logging
The Action Button just became your most powerful coaching tool. Assign the new "Log Pitch" shortcut to your iPhone's Action Button and count pitches with a single squeeze — phone locked, in your pocket, eyes on the game.
No unlocking. No app. No looking down.
You're standing at third base with a runner taking a big lead. Pitch comes in — squeeze the side of your phone. Pitch count goes up on the Lock Screen Live Activity. That's it. No one else on the Little League field has this.
Works on iPhone 15 Pro, 15 Pro Max, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max.
Guided Setup
A new "Action Button Setup" screen walks you through the 3-step assignment process in iOS Settings, plus troubleshooting tips. Find it in Settings → Pitching Rules & Smart Fill → Action Button Setup.
Voice Control Support
Even if you don't have an Action Button, you can now trigger "Log Pitch" with your voice. Just say the phrase and the pitch count goes up. Handy when your hands are full.
Under the Hood
Faster Live Activity updates on the Lock Screen
Improved reliability for the pitch counter across app launches
Cleaner integration between the app and iOS Shortcuts
Coming Soon
Edit pitch counts after the fact (correct mistakes without deleting the game)
Real hitting, pitching, and fielding stats
Post-game recap texts for parents
Share your lineup as an image or PDF
As always, thank you to every coach in the beta who shapes this app. Keep the feedback coming. The more I hear about what's working (and what's not) on actual fields, the better CoachSkip gets.
Play ball.
