Run your football league with a true gridiron scoreboard
Touchdowns are six, field goals three, the extra point one, the two-point try two, a safety two — BallOBall knows the difference and adds each correctly the moment you tap it. From opening kickoff through overtime, score the game down-and-distance, build passing-rushing-receiving stat lines from the play log, push a broadcast-grade scorebug to the stream, and give every fan a points-difference table on a page that refreshes itself.

One engine, tuned to American Football
The whole platform re-skins to American Football — labels, scoring, period structure, and brand accent all follow the sport.
- 01
Points-accurate live scoring
Every scoring play moves the board by its own value — touchdown 6, field goal 3, extra point 1, two-point conversion 2, safety 2. Tap the play and the scoreline moves on the console and the scorebug together, with the try kept separate from the touchdown so a 6 never becomes a 7 by accident.
- 02
Down-and-distance context
The play log captures the drive the way the chain gang sees it — completions, rushes, receptions, sacks, and penalties in sequence. Fans following along get the story of the drive, not just the final number on the board.
- 03
Offense & defense stat lines
Passing, rushing, and receiving yards build from completions, rushes, and receptions; sacks, interceptions, and fumbles tally the defensive side. The full both-sides-of-the-ball box score is computed live from the events your scorekeeper taps.
- 04
Four quarters, overtime handled
Four timed quarters with overtime past regulation — the period model follows the gridiron, relabeling extra frames as OT automatically. No generic half timer, no mental math on a game that already has plenty of clock management.
A American Football console & table — not a spreadsheet
The scorekeeper buttons and the standings columns below are exactly what American Football gets — generated from the sport engine, not a generic grid.

The full American Football operation
From the first fixture to the broadcast scorebug — every surface your American Football league runs on, built in.
Schedules & playoff brackets
Conference round-robins, divisional matchups, and — with the Tournaments module — single- or double-elimination playoff brackets to a championship. An odd number of teams gets a bye each round, conflict detection warns when a team or a field is double-booked, and you set the kickoff windows under the lights.
Tablet-first scorekeeper
Big touch targets for every play — touchdown, field goal, extra point, two-point conversion, safety, plus completions, rushes, receptions, sacks, interceptions, fumbles, tackles, and penalties. Undo any play, tolerate a weak signal on the sideline, and every snap is pushed to the scorebug.
Broadcast scorebug & overlays
A gridiron-themed scorebug with the quarter, the game clock, and the score, a player lower third, and a halftime card — one browser source into OBS. The scorekeeper drives the graphics from the same tablet; no separate booth operator.
Team fan pages
Publish the league and every team gets a branded public page with the live scoreboard, the play-by-play feed, the standings, and passing-rushing-receiving leaderboards. No login — students, scouts, and supporters just follow the game from any phone.
What American Football leagues get
- 4 quarters
The gridiron clock, handled
Four fifteen-minute quarters, a forty-second play clock between snaps, and three team timeouts a side that refill at halftime — anything past regulation is relabeled OT on its own. The console folds the timeout bank per half the way the sideline counts it, so the last one before the break is never in dispute.
- 6 / 3 / 1 / 2
Scoring values that are always right
Touchdowns, field goals, extra points, two-point tries, and safeties each add their own value with no manual tally — the board can never drift one point out the way a hand-kept scoresheet can.
- 0
Spreadsheets in the press box
Replace the paper play chart, the group chat, and the post-game stats email with one tablet that scores the game, builds both stat lines, and runs the stream at once.
