Run your rugby league for the full eighty
Two halves, every way to put points on the board, and the cards that change a match — BallOBall runs it the way rugby is actually scored. A five-point try, the two-point conversion that follows, penalties and drop goals, and the sin bin tracked live. Schedule the fixtures, hand the touch judge a tablet, and the clubhouse follows every phase.

One engine, tuned to Rugby
The whole platform re-skins to Rugby — labels, scoring, period structure, and brand accent all follow the sport.
- 01
Try, then the two that follow
Tap a try for five, then the conversion for two — the scoreline moves by the right value every time. Penalty goals and drop goals add their three, so the board reflects exactly how the points were scored, not a flat tally.
- 02
Cards & the sin bin
Yellow and red cards roll up to a live discipline log. A yellow puts a player in the bin and the match center shows the team a man down — fans and the touchline see the ten-minute disadvantage as it plays out.
- 03
Fifteen on the team sheet
Props, hooker, locks, flankers, the number eight, halves, centres, wings, and fullback all have a home in the roster, so the forward pack and the back line are tracked the way a rugby team sheet is actually built.
- 04
A points-difference table
Played, Won, Lost, Win %, Points For, Points Against, and Points Difference — sorted by win percentage with PD as the tiebreaker a rugby table needs. Pool play and knockout brackets come with the Tournaments module.
A Rugby console & table — not a spreadsheet
The scorekeeper buttons and the standings columns below are exactly what Rugby gets — generated from the sport engine, not a generic grid.

The full Rugby operation
From the first fixture to the broadcast scorebug — every surface your Rugby league runs on, built in.
Fixtures & brackets
Round-robin leagues, a one-day sevens tournament block, or group stage into knockouts with the Tournaments module. Conflict detection warns when a club or a pitch is double-booked across the season; you assign the pitches and the kickoff times.
Tablet scorekeeper
Big touch targets for tries, conversions, penalty goals, drop goals, cards, penalties conceded, and substitutions. Undo any event, offline-tolerant pitchside, and every score is pushed to the scorebug.
Broadcast scorebug
A rugby scorebug with the score, the half, and the clock, plus lower thirds for the try scorer and the player binned. One browser source into OBS, driven by the scorekeeper — no separate operator.
Club fan pages
Every club can publish a branded public page with the live score, the phase-by-phase feed, the table, and try-and-points leaderboards. No login — supporters just open the link and follow the match.
What Rugby leagues get
- Union / League
Both codes, priced right
Pick the code in league rules and the whole catalog re-prices itself — union pays a try five with the penalty and drop goal at three; league pays a try four, the penalty two, the drop goal one. Buttons, hotkeys, the optimistic scoreline, and the posted delta all move together, so a 13-a-side match is never scored at 15-a-side values.
- PD-correct
Tables that tiebreak right
Points difference is applied as the tiebreaker after win percentage, so the standings match what the competition rulebook says — every round, without a manual recount.
- 0
Clipboards on the touchline
Replace the paper sheet, the card tally, and the post-match results email with one tablet that scores the points, tracks the bin, and runs the stream at once.
