Built by a coach who wanted tryouts to be easier.

I’ve coached travel baseball for years. Every spring I run evaluations for 200+ rec players to help balance teams, and I run tryouts for three select teams: 9U, 11U and 13U.

With that many players and tryouts, staying organized took more work than it should have: clipboards, scoresheets, then hours of inputting all the data into spreadsheets and combing through the results. I needed a better way to run tryouts and a quicker way to make smart decisions, so I built BenchSlate to keep every player and every score organized in one place. I’ve been using it for my own tryouts since.
