Founding rate $249 a year. 15 months for your first year, 4 Coaching Labs and a 90-day guarantee.

Six things founders get.

You’d be trusting RBN before it has a long track record. Every coach gets good onboarding, support and the funding letter. Founders get a real advantage on top: more time, a lasting price, my coaching experience and a genuine voice in the product.

a year, kept while you stay subscribed

15months4Labs90days to decide

Founding rate $249 a year. 15 months for your first year, 4 Coaching Labs and a 90-day guarantee.

Up to 49 active athletes. The three extra months are worth about $75 at the regular rate.

Season months are rough, and every state runs a little differently. Everything you pick stays on this page. If you join before the app opens, your 15 months start the day it does.

The Founders Coaching Lab

Four coaching conversations. Not release notes.

Four live, founder-only group sessions with me during your first year, with recordings. Send questions beforehand. I choose the themes that help the most coaches.

The quarterly roadmap conversation is part of these sessions. That’s something nobody else can bundle: my coaching experience and the thinking behind RBN.

These are group sessions, so there’s no promise of individual consultations, and nobody gets a prescribed training plan.

The 90-Day Founders Guarantee

The clock starts when your athletes do.

A brand-new product is asking for your trust, so you get enough time to decide whether it deserves it. Your 90 days start the day you push your first workout to your athletes, or on January 31, 2027, the day founding closes, if you haven’t by then. Setting up your season and waiting for practice to start don’t use any of it.

  1. You join

    Pay for founding yearly. Nothing’s counting yet.

  2. You set up

    Season, athletes, anchors, invites. Still not counting.

  3. Day 1 to day 90

    From your first pushed workout. If RBN isn’t useful to you, email for a full refund and keep the book.

No requirement to hit a training result or prove you used every feature. If it isn’t useful, that’s enough.

Founders questions

How do I join?

Start free with your team, then choose founding yearly from your billing page by January 31, 2027. Checkout is by card, including a school card.

Can I join before December 1?

Yes. The app opens December 1, 2026. Join before then and you get the book right away and a few emails from me while you wait. Your 15 months start December 1, so joining early doesn’t cost you any time.

When do my 15 months start?

When the app is available to you, not while you’re waiting for it. If you join before it opens, your 15 months start the day it does. After that, you renew once a year at your founding rate.

What happens at renewal?

Your plan renews automatically at $249 (or $349 for 50 or more) until you cancel. You keep that rate while you stay subscribed.

What if we go over 49 athletes?

Move up to the 50+ plan from your billing page. You keep founding pricing.

Does the monthly plan count?

No. The Founders Club comes with founding yearly. Monthly is $29.95 or $39.95 a month, without the founding price or the founding extras.

Will you build what founders vote for?

Not automatically, and I’d rather say so now. Founders weigh in, and I report back on what I’m exploring, postponing or passing on, and why. You get heard. We still steer the product.

Are the Labs one-on-one coaching?

No. They’re group sessions with recordings. Send questions beforehand and I’ll pick the themes that help the most coaches. Nobody gets a prescribed training plan.

Can my Booster Club or school pay?

Yes. The pricing page has a letter you can fill in and send to your Booster Club, athletic director or principal. Write the letter

Founding closes January 31, 2027.

After that, yearly plans are $299.50 under 50 athletes and $399.50 for 50 or more, and the Founders Club extras aren’t part of them. There aren’t a set number of spots. There’s just a date.
