Nights by division
One division plays Tuesdays and Thursdays, another only Mondays. Set the days and times each division or team can play, and games stay inside them.
Softball League Scheduling Software
Softball league scheduling software, from youth fastpitch to adult slo-pitch.
Lots of divisions, a few diamonds and only so many nights a week. SportsPlanr builds the regular season, playoffs and tournaments from the diamond time you already have — games, practices, travel and every team's blackout dates solved together in minutes, and re-planned when the weather turns.
Fast and easy, from setup to the last game.
- MinutesTo build a full season
- SecondsTo re-check a rule change
- Plain languageTo set up your rules
Describe your league's rules in plain language, or use the forms. A Spot Check tells you straight away if they can't all be met — before you generate anything — and you confirm every change.
Built for leagues that live on weeknight diamond time.
SportsPlanr is not a diamond-booking system, and it is more than a softball schedule maker. It takes the diamonds and nights your league already has and turns them into a season that works.
- Adult slo-pitch (slow pitch) leagues with many divisions, playing weeknights after work.
- Youth fastpitch associations with age-group divisions, practices and travel to other towns.
- Organizations that share diamonds with baseball and need both programs on one calendar.
- One convenor who juggles every team's requests in a spreadsheet each spring.
Every division, every night, solved together.
Any one of these is easy on its own. The hard part — the part that eats a volunteer's weekends — is all of them at once: diamonds, divisions, practices, travel and blackouts competing for the same time. SportsPlanr solves them as one problem, and tells you before you generate if they can't all be met.
Early and late games shared evenly
Start times are spread as evenly as possible across your teams, so nobody is stuck with the last game of the night all season.
Lit and unlit diamonds
Every diamond has its own available time. An unlit diamond's night ends at dusk; a lit one's runs late. Games are only placed where they fit.
Doubleheader nights
By default a team plays once a day. Allow two games in one night at the same diamond, with the gap you set between them, for the divisions that play doubleheaders.
Team blackout dates
Holidays, tournaments and the weekend half the team is away, entered once and respected across the whole season.
Travel to other towns
Youth fastpitch teams travel. Each division sets the days and times its teams can travel, and away games are placed inside those windows.
Shared with baseball
Softball and baseball programs in the same organization draw on the same diamonds' time without double-booking.
Youth practices too
Fastpitch practices compete for the same diamond time as games, so they are scheduled together rather than squeezed in afterwards.
Fair for every team
Balanced home and away games, opponents spread across the season and enough days between games for every team.
Softball regular season, playoffs and tournaments, in one place.
Every part of your year is built from the same diamonds, in the same place, by the same scheduling engine.
- Regular season. Every division's games and practices across the whole season, with travel and blackouts built in.
- Playoffs. Seeded matchups, configurable series formats and a structure that progresses as teams advance.
- Tournaments. Round-robin group play, bracket structure and seeding, with game progression handled for you.
- Compare before you publish. Build several versions of any schedule, read each one's report card, and publish the best.
Washed-out nights, closed diamonds, team changes? Reschedule only what has to move.
A wet week takes out a night of games, a diamond closes for repairs, the city pulls a permit, a team moves divisions. SportsPlanr re-plans only the games affected, with every rule still applied — no rebuilding the season, no starting over in a spreadsheet.
- Say what changed. A diamond is closed for the week, the city pulls a permit, a team moves divisions.
- Pick the date the change takes effect. Everything before that date stays exactly as it is.
- Only the affected games are re-planned, with every rule still applied.
- Review every move before it goes live. Where each game was, where it is now and why — then publish or discard. Single games can also be moved by hand.
One scheduling engine, every team sport.
The same engine schedules softball, baseball, soccer, hockey, basketball and volleyball. It has solved complex multi-city league logistics since 2018 — balancing games, practices, travel and contended field and facility time across dozens of sites.

Softball scheduling questions
Can we run adult slo-pitch and youth fastpitch in one account?
Yes. One subscription covers every league and program in your organization — adult and youth, recreational and competitive — and they all draw on the same diamonds' available time without double-booking.
Can a division play only on certain nights?
Yes. Set the days and times each division or team is allowed to play, such as Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and games are only placed inside those windows.
Will the same teams always get the late game?
No. SportsPlanr spreads early and late start times as evenly as it can across your teams, so no team is stuck with the last game of the night all season.
Does it handle doubleheaders?
Yes, where you allow them. By default a team plays once a day. You can allow doubleheaders for a division or a single team: two games on the same night at the same diamond, with the minimum gap you set between them.
What happens when games are rained out?
Use Reschedule. Say what changed, such as a diamond closed for the week, and pick the date the change takes effect. Only the games that have to move are re-planned, with every rule still applied, and you review each move before anything is published. Individual games can also be moved by hand.
Can youth fastpitch away games stay inside each team's travel times?
Yes. Each division sets the days and times its teams are able to travel, and SportsPlanr places away games inside those windows, alongside every other rule.
Can fastpitch practices go on the same diamonds as games?
Yes. Practices compete for the same diamond time as games, so SportsPlanr schedules them together, and a block of time can be kept for practices only.
Does it schedule softball playoffs and tournaments?
Yes. Playoffs use seeded matchups, configurable series formats and a structure that progresses as teams advance. Tournaments get round-robin group play, bracket structure, seeding and game progression. Both are built in the same place, from the same diamonds, as your regular season.
How quickly can we build a slo-pitch season?
Most organizations generate a complete schedule in minutes and re-check a rule change in seconds. Next season is faster still: clone this season's settings and start from there.
Is SportsPlanr a softball schedule maker or schedule generator?
Yes, and more. A typical schedule maker or schedule generator pairs teams and assigns times. SportsPlanr generates the full softball schedule — regular season, playoffs and tournaments — while solving diamonds, practices, travel and blackouts together, and tells you before it generates if your rules can't all be met.
