Questions
What is Next Inning?
Next Inning is a native iOS and Android app that helps youth baseball and softball coaches plan fair lineups, set fielding positions, and track playing time from the dugout. It works offline at the field and syncs when you are back online.
How is it different from GameChanger?
Next Inning is the thinking coach's planning tool, not a live-scoring or streaming platform. It focuses on fairness-aware lineups, fielding plans, and playing-time analytics rather than broadcasting games.
Is Next Inning free?
Yes, it is free to start. The free Rookie tier covers planning a lineup; paid tiers add cloud sync, backup, and advanced fairness analytics.
What ages is it for?
It is built for youth baseball and softball coaches, roughly U8 through U14, where fair playing time and position rotation matter most.
