Share Practice Plans and Game Lineups With Your Coaching Staff

You can now share any practice plan or game lineup with one click. Open a practice plan or game page, look for the Copy Link button, and paste the link in your team group chat or email. Anyone with the link can view it. No Dugout Edge account needed for viewers.

Get everyone on the same page

One of the biggest challenges for youth baseball and softball coaches is communication. Your assistant coaches need to know the practice plan. Parents want to see the lineup before game day. And you do not have time to type it all out in a group text.

Now you can share any practice plan or game lineup with a single click. Copy the link, paste it in your team group chat, and everyone can view it instantly. No account needed for viewers.

How shareable links work

1. Open any practice plan or game page in Dugout Edge
2. Click the Copy Link button
3. Paste the link in a text message, email, WhatsApp, or any group chat
4. Anyone with the link can view the full plan or lineup

The shared page shows everything: drill names, time blocks, station assignments, defensive positions, batting order, and notes. It is a clean, read-only view that looks good on phones.

Why this matters for youth coaching

Most youth teams rely on a head coach and one or two assistant coaches who are also volunteer parents. Practice runs smoother when everyone knows the plan before they show up. Sharing a link takes 5 seconds and eliminates the pre-practice huddle where you explain what is happening.

Use cases for coaches

• Practice plans: share with assistant coaches so they can set up stations before you arrive
• Game lineups: share with parents so they know which inning their kid plays where
• Co-coaching: if you split coaching duties with another parent, both of you have the same plan
• Record keeping: save links to reference past practice plans and lineups later in the season

Privacy and control

Only you can create and edit your plans and lineups. The shared link is read-only. Viewers cannot modify anything. If you want to stop sharing, the link is tied to your account and you control access.

Works with any device

Shared links are responsive and work on any phone, tablet, or computer. Your assistant coach can pull up the practice plan on their phone at the field. Parents can check the lineup from anywhere.
