Problem

Parents of elementary and middle school baseball players lack the expertise to assess their child's pitching form, training load, and injury warning signs, leading to overuse injuries such as elbow and shoulder problems (Little League elbow, etc.). Youth sports medicine information is scattered, and parents have no way to verify coaches' training instructions. When injuries occur, treatment costs $750–$3,750 (~100–500만원) per incident with 3–6 month recovery periods.

Solution

Input the child's age, position, weekly training volume, and pitch count to auto-calculate recommended training ranges and injury risk levels based on sports medicine guidelines. Provides pitch count limit alerts, stretching and cooldown routine video recommendations, and weekly reports with an injury warning sign self-check checklist.

Target: Parents of elementary–middle school baseball players (aged 30–50), youth baseball coaches, and local baseball club operators
Revenue Model: Premium monthly at $9/mo (~12,000 KRW) per player, team package (15 players) at $90/mo (~120,000 KRW). Free Plan (basic checklist only)
Ecosystem Role: Education
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
