What time is practice? Did they attend on Saturday? Is the fee due? If your child trains at a cricket academy on Skipper, all of it is on one screen. Here is your way around.

Getting Connected

• The academy enrolls your child and adds your phone number. You get an invite by SMS.
• Install Skipper and sign in with that same number.
• Open the app menu and tap Academies. Your child's academy is right there.

Looking for an academy instead? Open Academies and scroll to the directory. Search by name or browse near your city; the lime tick means Skipper has verified them. Open one and tap Join this academy to get in touch.

Your Home Screen

Open the academy and the things you actually check are at the top:

• Next session: the coming practice, with day, time, and ground.
• Attendance: how regular your child has been this month, as a simple percentage.
• Fees: a pill that says paid or due. Tap it to see the invoice.

Two kids at the same academy? A switcher at the top flips between them.

Announcements

When the academy posts a notice, a washout, a timing change, tournament news, it lands on your phone as a notification and sits on your academy home screen. Tap All notices to read everything, with the important ones pinned on top. Nothing to forward, nothing to miss.

Fees and Receipts

• When a fee comes due, the invoice shows up in the app, and a reminder follows if it slips your mind.
• Pay at the academy as you always have, cash or UPI.
• The academy records it, your invoice flips to paid, and a proper receipt lands in the app to view or share.

Book a 1:1 Class

• If the academy offers private coaching, the sessions are on your home screen: which coach, how long, what it costs.
• Pick one, choose from the coach's free slots, and tap Book this slot.
• The slot is held for you, so nobody can take it. Pay at the academy.

Your bookings stay on the same screen, so you always know what is coming up.

Order From the Store

• Open the Store tab to see the academy's kit, balls, and merchandise.
• Pick a size, tap Place order.
• Collect and pay at the academy. The order's status updates in the app as it moves.

One Identity, the Whole Game

Here is the quiet superpower. Your child's academy profile is the same Skipper player profile they use in matches and tournaments. Weekend scores, batting and bowling stats, the full analysis, all of it builds on one identity. You watch a career take shape from your phone, one session and one match at a time.
