Time to Sign Sports: a bold, recruiting-first baseball website.

We designed and built a new website for Time to Sign Sports, an elite travel baseball program with teams in five US regions. It opens like a highlight reel, shows the program's record in the first scroll and moves every family toward one step: register for a tryout through LeagueApps.

The brief

The job, in three parts.

01

The challenge

  • A strong program whose record was hard to find on the old site
  • Five regions to explain in one place
  • Tryout registration living on a separate platform, LeagueApps
02

What we did

  • Designed a bold athletic system in navy and sky blue with slanted cuts
  • Built custom Beaver Builder modules: video hero, region map, commitment list, staff profiles
  • Linked every tryout's Register button to its LeagueApps registration
03

The outcome

  • Families see the record and find their region in the first scroll
  • Every page ends on Register for a Tryout
  • Staff add tryouts, staff and commitments without a developer
What we built

Inside the baseball website.

Real screenshots from the live site. Every feature here is one you can try at timetosignsports.com.

Time to Sign Sports homepage with the video hero and Register for a Tryout button
01

A cinematic first impression

The site opens with an animated TTS wordmark, then a video hero cut from the program's own footage, with a separate portrait cut for phones. The proof numbers, 1,000+ commitments, 180+ drafted and 30+ MLB alumni, sit right under it.

Interactive region map on the Time to Sign Sports homepage
02

Find your region

An interactive map of the eastern US marks the five regions with numbered pins. Pick one and it opens with its states, a photo, a short story and buttons to explore the region or register for its tryout.

Searchable college commitment list filtered by graduating class
03

Every commitment, searchable

All 1,043 college commitments live in one list with college logos. Families search by player or college, or filter by graduating class from 2010 to 2027, and the same records feed the homepage and the recruiting page.

Upcoming tryouts table with Register buttons that open LeagueApps
04

Tryouts straight to LeagueApps

The tryouts page lists every upcoming session with its date, venue and price. Each Register button opens that session's LeagueApps registration, so a parent goes from reading to signing up in one click.

Interactive TTS player folder showing ten recruiting resources
05

The player folder, opened up

Recruiting is part of the offer, so the homepage shows the private folder every team player receives. Families click through all ten parts, from player profile to action center, before they ever come to a tryout.

TTS Florida and South Florida Bandits region page with a map of Florida
06

A page for every region

Each region has its own page with a map, the states it covers, the 14U to 17U teams, its leaders and its tryouts, plus the four steps from tryout to getting recruited.

Also built

  • Staff profiles with credentials and full bios
  • MLB alumni wall with debut dates
  • Player interest form for families not ready to register
  • Mega menu across teams, recruiting, results and about
  • Portrait cut of the hero video for phones
On phones

Built for the phone in your hand.

Most families arrive on a phone, so the tryout button lives in the header, the hero reel plays in a portrait cut and each region page opens on its map.
