Team Admins can set their game lineup ahead of time both from the web and from the app. These lineups will automatically be imported when Admins begin scoring a new game. This allows the lineup to be set by one Admin, sync to the team’s profile, and be used when any Admin opens a game to score.
ADD A LINEUP FROM THE WEB
1) From your team page on the website, click the Roster & Lineup tab
2) Go to the Lineup sub-tab
3) Click Adjust the Lineup
4) Drag players from Reserves to Starters and assign defensive positions
5) Take a look at the Helpful Hints at the bottom of the page for help setting a DH or an extra fielder or for additional tips
6) Click Save Changes
Note: Only one lineup may be set from the website.
ADD LINEUPS IN THE iOS APP
1) Open the GameChanger Classic app and go to the Team tab
2) Tap the Lineups sub tab
3) Tap Add Players from Roster to begin adding your lineup (add them in batting order)
4) Assign defensive positions
5) Tap Order to adjust the batting order if necessary (tap and hold to drag players to a new position in the order)
6) Create additional lineups or create a custom name by tapping New Lineup 1 or the current lineup name.
Note: The active lineup will be the one that was most recently viewed. Be sure to go to the Lineups tab and switch the active lineup when necessary.
ADD LINEUPS IN THE ANDROID APP
1) In the GameChanger Classic app, go to the Lineups tab
2) Tap Create New Lineup to get started or if you already have an existing lineup, tap the “+” to create a new one
3) Enter your lineup from the roster, and add defensive positions
4) Save
5) Tap the 3 dots next to the lineup you want to use, and tap Set as Active Lineup to switch between different lineups

“Tap ORDER to adjust the batting order if necessary”
???
I see:
“add new player”
”add from roster”
“clear line up”
but no ability to adjust the order is available...
In our league, we have to rotate players through positions (pitching limitations, catching limitations, benching limits). We know who we want to play which positions for each inning. Is there anyway to pre-setup substitutions before the game. It's a lot of work to reset the fielding positions during the middle of the game while trying to keep score.
Looking for the same thing.
Re. Add lineups for all 6 innings before game start. Gamechanger was working on incorporating this two years ago according to another thread. Any progress?
Sorry. Should have said need ability to add fielding positions for all six innings prior to game start.
Do you have to exit the game in order to switch your line-up every time? Similar to the posts above, I want to have everything pre-set before the game bc our team switches positions so much and I don’t have time to make the changes between innings.
I have the same questions regarding setting up lineups for six (6) innings. Has anyone received answers to this inquiry? If any of you have learned to do this, can you please post to this thread?
Unfortunately I don’t believe there is any way to do the pre-set lineup for each inning. GameChanger is a great app but not being able to do this is very frustrating!!
Thank you Christy! I was able to preset six innings on my phone (can't find online though). When it came to actually doing it in "Game" mode, I wasn't able to change the "Active" line up. I am going to try to do a test run and see if I can figure it out!
I tried the same thing Craig and had no luck as well. Let me know if you come up with anything! In the meantime, I am gonna try and change the positions for the following inning while we are batting. Not ideal bc I need to focus on each at bat but gonna give it a try.
Craig and Christy, we do not allow for preset inning lineups, only game lineups. We plan to add preset inning lineups down the road.
Thanks for your response and confirmation that you can’t do this on the app currently. Can you clarify “down the road”? A year from now, 2 years, longer? Thx!
Thank you Elizabeth, but I am betting this won't happen. I found a thread from a few years ago that was "closed" where GameChanger promised the same upgrade. I don't remember the exact year, and don't want to waste any more time researching. It would be ideal for an app to come up with this ability to do what we are asking.
Same as John Wolff!
Preloading a lineup for 6 innings on both teams would be a huge timesaver! As it currently stands I’m setting new positions for the next inning while the players are leaving the field and getting ready to bat. If I forget and/or I am talking with a parent I have to do the change on the fly. It’s not a huge deal when using my iPad, but on the phone (iOS) it’s really difficult. Please add this feature!!
Same as above - when will we be able to preset multiple innings?
NFHS and NCAA now both allow the Pitcher and DH to be the same player. Any way to get GameChanger to allow that?
Bummer that they still haven't updated the app to be able to do Muti inning positions. This app would be killer for managing little league but without this im moving on
It’s been two years and GC still doesn’t account for multi position innings (players playing multiple positions in a game). Little League and Pony baseball scorekeepers need this ability! I’m not focused on the game if I’m constantly setting player positions every inning. Please add this, please!!
