Three steps to your first lesson. Five minutes from "just found this site" to a booked session — and you stay in control of everything your player sees and does.
Create your parent account
~1 minuteOne account manages your whole family — every player, booking, and program in one place.
- Create your login and a basic family profile: your name and email, plus a password. Add your mobile number if you want lesson updates by text.
- You'll accept the Terms & liability waiver as part of signup — it covers every player you add.
- Texting is opt-in: check the box only if you want lesson reminders by text (reply STOP anytime).
- We send a confirmation email — verify it to unlock everything.
Add your player
~1 minuteYour player gets their own report card, Development Score, and — if you choose — their own kid-safe login.
- In Settings, add your player's name, birth year, and position — you'll confirm you're their parent or guardian first (that's on purpose).
- You set up your player's account. From your own login you create your child's profile and stay in control of it — a coach can help get you started, but it's not required.
- Want your kid their own login? Ask your coach to switch one on — it's a friendly code plus a PIN, emailed to YOU, never to your kid. No email, no phone number, nothing personal from your child, ever.
- Players see their own dashboard: stats, progress charts, coach notes, and assigned training. They're prompted to pick a new PIN on first sign-in.
Book your first lesson
~2 minutesPick a coach, pick a time. Your first session is the DTP Assessment — 20+ measurements that set your player's baseline.
- Choose Coach Ryan (pitching) or Coach Elijah (hitting) and a time that works.
- Every booking is a request the coach personally approves — you'll get an email (and a text, if you opted in) the moment it's confirmed.
- Pay after approval: card or Cash App Pay online, or Venmo / Zelle / cash at the lesson.
- If your player requests a lesson from their own login, nothing books until you approve it.
Built parent-first
- You consent, not us. Terms, waiver, and text-message opt-in are all yours to accept — and yours to change anytime in Settings.
- Kid logins carry nothing personal. A code and a PIN — no email or phone — emailed to you, never to your kid. Players set their own PIN on first sign-in.
- Nothing books itself. Player-requested lessons wait for your approval; every booking waits for the coach's.
- Every text has an exit. Reply STOP to any message and texting turns off account-wide.
Five minutes. That's the whole setup.
Account. Player. First lesson. Everything after that is development you can measure.
