Type your roster once on the Roster tab and the Lineup Card tab fills the names in; position cells have a dropdown so entries stay consistent.

No form, no email gate. If you want the card filled out for you, the free lineup generator builds the batting order and fielding rotation from your roster and prints the same formats.

What a Good Lineup Card Includes

The cards that survive a full game day have five things: batting order slots for the whole roster (12, not 9, because most youth teams bat everyone), a position column per inning rather than a single position box, jersey numbers next to names for the opposing scorekeeper, a substitutes line for late arrivals, and enough white space to make changes with a pencil when your starting pitcher wakes up sick.
The by-inning position columns matter more in youth ball than any other feature. Little League's continuous batting order keeps the batting order fixed while fielding positions change every inning, so a one-position card is out of date by the second inning.

How to Fill Out a Baseball Lineup Card

Write the batting order first, positions second. List every player present in batting order, including bench players in a continuous order. Then fill inning 1 positions, then pencil the rest: pitcher and catcher plans first because they carry pitch count and rest-day consequences, infield next, outfield and bench rotation last. Make three copies before the game: one for the umpire or official scorekeeper, one for the opposing team, one for your dugout rail. Page 2 of the PDF prints all of them at once.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this lineup card really free?

Yes. Both files download directly from this page with no email address, account, or payment. Print as many as you want for your team.

How many players does the card hold?

Twelve batting order slots plus a substitutes line, which covers standard youth rosters batting a continuous order. If you carry more, the Excel version's roster tab holds 14 and you can add rows.

Does the card work for softball?

Use the softball lineup card instead: it adds DP/FLEX rows and a note on how the rule works, which baseball cards don't need.

Can I get the lineup filled out automatically?

Yes. The free lineup generator builds a batting order and a fair fielding rotation from your roster, checks rules like minimum play, and prints game-ready cards. It is free and there is no usage cap.
