We recommend recording live on mobile or tablet. The buttons are built for touch and one thumb.
Build your squad
Before you start the match, set up the Squad tab for the season.
For each player you fill in:
- First and last name
- Jersey number
- Position (Wing, Backcourt, Line, Goalkeeper or Multi-position player)
You can add players one at a time, or paste a whole list from a text file or spreadsheet. If you coach more than one team, you can switch between them from the «Teams» button at the top.
Create a match
Go to the Matches tab and select «New match». Fill in:
- Home or away and the opponent
- Date and throw-off time
- Match length and period length
- Tournament or league if relevant
- Which players from the squad are taking part
Once the match is created, you find it in the match list. It shows as planned until you start live recording.
Live recording
Open the match from the match list on match day. You will see a setup screen with match info and the squad. Check that the squad is correct and start the clock when the match begins.
During recording, the screen is built for one thumb:
- A bottom menu switches between Attack and Defense, with the match clock in the middle and play/pause next to it.
- On iPad and desktop there is also room for a Live stats panel on the right side, with a real-time summary and event log. You open it from «More» in the bottom menu.
The buttons available:
Attack Goal, Assist, Drew 7m, Missed 7m, Miss +, Miss −
Technical errors (under Attack) Pass/catch, Steps, Line crossing, Offensive foul, Illegal screen, Other technical
Defense Steal, Free throw, Plus, Minus, Sanction, 7m against
Goalkeeper Saves and Goals against split by Wing, Short, Long and 7m.
For each event you pick the type first (for example «Goal» or «Steal»), and then which player it applies to.
If you tap the wrong thing, you can undo or delete individual events as long as the match is in progress.
Recording afterwards
If you did not get to record live, open the match after it ended and fill in the same events per player. Numbers entered afterwards count the same as live-recorded numbers in season totals.
After the match
When the match has ended you get a detail view with three tabs: Events, Court players and Goalkeepers. Here you see all registered events chronologically and tables per player.
The events themselves are locked after the match ends, but you can still edit the match details like opponent, date, tournament and so on.
