What LL Administrators Actually Need

Running a Little League isn't like coaching a team. You're managing 15-25 teams, dozens of coaches, hundreds of families, and a rulebook that changes annually. The tools you need are different from what your coaches need:
League-wide visibility — who's pitching how much, who's getting playing time, which coaches are staying within the rules.
Evaluation day management — running a draft evaluation with 6-8 evaluators and 60-80 kids without drowning in paper.
Registration and scheduling — getting 200+ families signed up, assigned to teams, and on a schedule.
Rule compliance documentation — having the data to back up your decisions when a parent challenges a coach's playing time distribution.

The Top Apps for LL Administrators

1. Rizzler — Best for Coaching Oversight & Compliance

Rizzler's League & Club plan gives your board the organization dashboard — a single view of every team in your league. See pitch count compliance, playing time distribution, and coach activity across all teams. When every coach in your league uses Rizzler, your board has real data instead of self-reported paperwork.
Rizzler also handles evaluation events — your annual draft evaluation day with multiple evaluators scoring simultaneously on their phones. Scores average automatically and feed into a draft board.
Best for: Boards that want coaching oversight, evaluation day management, and rule compliance documentation.
Pricing: League & Club plan — $799/yr for the full organization. Individual coaches get Pro features included.

2. Blue Sombrero / SportsConnect — Best for Registration

Blue Sombrero (now part of SportsConnect) is the dominant registration platform for Little League organizations. Online registration, payment processing, team formation, and basic scheduling. It's what most leagues use for the administrative backbone.
Where it falls short: No coaching tools, no evaluation scoring, no playing time or pitch count oversight. It handles the business side, not the baseball side.
Pricing: Platform fees based on registrations.

3. TeamSnap — Best for Communication

TeamSnap keeps teams organized — scheduling, availability, messaging, and payment reminders. Many leagues use it for team-level communication and leave league-level administration to other tools.
Where it falls short: No league-wide oversight dashboard, no evaluation tools, no rule compliance monitoring.

4. Sports Connect — Registration + Scheduling

Part of the Blue Sombrero family, Sports Connect handles registration and league scheduling. Good for getting families signed up and games on a calendar.

5. GameChanger — Scoring Only

GameChanger provides game scoring and parent-facing live updates. It doesn't help administrators manage the league — no compliance monitoring, no evaluation tools, no coaching oversight. Coaches can import GC stats into Rizzler for the coaching side.

The Best Stack for LL Administrators

Most well-run leagues use multiple tools. A strong combination for 2026:
Blue Sombrero for registration and payment → Rizzler for coaching tools, evaluation days, and league-wide oversight → TeamSnap or GameChanger for parent communication.
Rizzler doesn't replace your registration system — it fills the gap between registration and what actually happens on the field.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can board members who aren't coaches use the dashboard?

Yes. The organization dashboard is accessible to designated administrators. They don't need to be assigned to a specific team.

Do all coaches have to use Rizzler for the dashboard to work?

The dashboard shows data for teams that actively use Rizzler. The more coaches on the platform, the more complete your league-wide picture. Teams not using Rizzler show as "no data."
