REGISTER FOR A PITCHERO ACCOUNT

As a club we use Pitchero to help us manage fixtures and training sessions for all our teams. In order to do this we require all coaches to register an account on Pitchero. When registering please select both Coach AND Team Admin roles and choose the team you manage.

Whilst you can manage your team on our website we highly recommend you download and use the Pitchero Manager App which is a convenient tool that will help you communicate directly with your players/parents and manage your team's training sessions, fixtures, and team selections on your smartphone.
