The Practice Planner

Most practice plans ignore what's actually going wrong.

Common weakness

Overthrows to first base

Generic infield drills don't target arm accuracy specifically — so the same throw sails every game.

Common weakness

Missed ground balls

Without diagnosing footwork vs. glove work vs. reads, practice time gets spent on the wrong fix.

Common weakness

Can't find the strike zone

A pitcher who's wild needs a different drill than one who's just missing low — the app knows the difference.

Try It

Pick a weakness. Get the drill built to fix it.

This is exactly how the Weakness-Based planner works inside the app:

1

Pick a category

Hitting, fielding, outfield, pitching, catching, or base running.

→
2

Pick the problem

The general issue your team is actually having — like arm accuracy or reads.

→
3

Identify the weakness

The app narrows it down to the exact sub-cause, out of 400+ it can pinpoint.

→
4

Get suggested drills

Matched specifically to that sub-cause, not the general category.

→
5

Add to your plan

Drop the suggested drills straight into a practice plan, ready to run.

The Weakness-Based builder in the Toolkit app: Hitting, Weak contact, Casting hands away from the body, with the Hands In Front Drill and Connection Ball Drill suggested
Inside the app

Try it below — the same three dropdowns as the app, with real drills from the library.

Start by picking a category.

A sample of the taxonomy and drills, shown for demonstration — the full app covers every weakness and matches against 344 drills across 400+ specific sub-causes.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Is this a subscription?

No. The Digital Coach’s Bundle is a one-time purchase, and the guides, games, ready-made plans and drills in your bundle are yours to keep. The only optional subscription is the practice planner, at $9.99/month after your free 3 months.

What’s the practice planner, and what happens after 3 months?

The planner is Fix a problem, Build your own, saving your practice plans and 15 Team Passes. Every bundle gets it free for 3 months, and we’ll email you before the trial ends. Keep it for $9.99/month, or let it end: your saved plans are kept (locked) and come back if you turn it on later. Everything else in your bundle stays open.

Can I upgrade to a bigger bundle later?

Yes. Choose Advanced or Travel any time and you pay only the difference from the bundle you already own.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

Yes, on the Advanced and Travel bundles. If either isn’t right for your team, email support@mbaseballacademy.com within 14 days of buying and we’ll refund you in full. The Beginner bundle is final sale. The $9.99/month planner, if you keep it after your free 3 months, isn’t refunded for partial months.

What happened to the PDF version?

The Digital Coach’s Bundle now lives in the MBA Toolkit app instead of PDF downloads. You get the same guides plus the quiz games, the animated plays, ready-made practice plans and drills, all on your phone at the field. Already bought the PDF bundle? It’s in the app too, with 90 days of the practice planner free from the first time you open it. Claim your bundle.

Can I cancel the planner anytime?

Yes. Cancel from the Toolkit’s Settings or My Account. You keep the planner until the end of the month you’ve paid for. Payments aren’t refunded for partial months.

Does this work on my phone?

Yes — the app is built mobile-first, since most coaches are pulling up drills and plans from the field, not a desk.

Can I share it with my team?

Yes, with the practice planner (free for your first 3 months). You get 15 Team Passes for your players and assistant coaches. Send your team link and each phone, tablet or computer that opens it gets the quiz games for your guides plus up to 12 situations you pick. Players don’t sign up or give us a name or email, and you can turn off any pass from the app.

How is this different from just Googling drills?

You get a complete system instead of scattered videos: the situations your players need to know, quiz games that make them learn it, and ready-made practices with every drill written out. And with the practice planner, the app diagnoses the actual weakness (one of 400+ specific sub-causes) and builds the practice around fixing it.

Stop guessing what to run at practice.

The situations guides and quiz games, 150 ready-made practice plans and up to 344 drills, on your phone at the field. Pay once and it’s yours.
