The demo loops — when a champion is crowned, a fresh bracket tips off. Updates every few seconds via the same public bracket link you'd send your team.
Every job the table has to do. Covered.
Game clock, shot clock, fouls with auto-bonus, timeouts with pip indicators, undo on everything, shot %, per-player foul attribution. Run the whole game from your phone on the bench or a tablet at the scorer's table.
Game & shot clock
Full game clock counts down with an optional 24-second shot clock alongside. Start, stop, reset with one tap. Auto-pause when a quarter ends or a timeout is called.
+1 / +2 / +3 scoring
Big tap targets for free throws, field goals, and three-pointers. Per-player attribution flow logs who scored each bucket so the box score writes itself.
Fouls with auto-bonus
Tap a foul, pick the player, pick the foul type (Personal / Shooting / Tech / Flagrant 1+2 / Unsportsmanlike). At 5 team fouls in a quarter the BONUS badge fires automatically.
Timeouts & possession
Per-team timeout pips show what's left. Possession arrow tracks the jump-ball alternation. One tap to flip on every turnover.
Halftime, OT & final
Period transitions, halftime, automatic overtime, and the final buzzer all run themselves. The scoreboard never blocks you on a screen you don't need.
Offline & resumable
Loads once, then runs offline — Wi-Fi dropping in the gym never drops your score. Close the tab mid-game, come back, tap Continue, pick up at the exact clock you left.
From tip-off to final buzzer. Tap less.
Setup takes under ten seconds. Scoring takes one tap. Period transitions, halftime, and overtime all run themselves.
Pick a format
NBA, WNBA, FIBA, High School, College, Rec, or custom. Each preset auto-sets the period length, period count, shot-clock rules, and bonus threshold.
Name the teams
Optional. Leave blank for "Home" / "Away" defaults. Roster names can be added later from the in-game attribution flow.
Tap to score
+1 / +2 / +3 buttons. Fouls fire the bonus badge automatically. Possession arrow flips on every turnover. Undo any tap with one button.
Wrap the game
Final buzzer hands you a clean box score. Pro users get cloud save + share links so the next coach picks it up from anywhere.

A Basketball Scoreboard for Every Court
From driveway 1-on-1 to a packed high school gym
Basketball scorekeeping is harder than it looks: a game clock, a shot clock, team fouls with a bonus threshold, timeouts per half, 1/2/3-point scoring, and possession. Paper scoresheets miss plays, chalkboards smear, and rented scoreboards cost more than the gym rental. Our online basketball scoreboard runs the whole game from one screen — the phone in your pocket or a tablet on the scorer's table.
Setup takes under 10 seconds: enter team names, pick NBA / FIBA / college / high school / rec, and tap Start New Game. +1, +2, +3 buttons score. A 24-second shot clock ticks alongside the main clock. Team fouls hit the bonus threshold and the scoreboard shows a BONUS badge automatically. Undo any mistake. Save and resume. It runs offline once loaded, so a dropped Wi-Fi connection in the gym doesn't drop your score.

Frequently Asked Questions
What coaches, refs, and scorekeepers ask before tip-off
Is this basketball scoreboard free?
Yes — the online basketball scoreboard is free to use. Track scores, game clock, shot clock, fouls, and timeouts with no signup and no download required. Optional paid plans exist for teams who want cloud sync and saved rosters, but the core scoreboard does not require a subscription.
What basketball formats does it support?
NBA (4×12 min), FIBA (4×10 min), High School (4×8 min), College (2×20 min), Recreational (2×15 min), and fully custom formats where you set the number of periods and minutes.
Can I use this as a shot clock?
Yes. Enable the 24-second shot clock in the setup form and it runs alongside the game clock. Reset it with one tap on every change of possession.
Does it handle fouls and the bonus?
Yes. Team fouls are tracked per quarter, and when a team reaches the bonus threshold (default 5 fouls in a quarter) the scoreboard shows a BONUS indicator for free throws.
Can I undo a mistake?
Yes — one-tap undo is available for scoring, fouls, and timeouts. Full history is tracked so you can step back through the sequence.
Can I use this scoreboard on my phone at the gym?
Absolutely. The scoreboard is fully responsive and works on phones, tablets, and desktops. Use it courtside on your phone, connect a tablet to a projector for the whole gym, or run it full-screen on a laptop at the scorer's table.
Does the basketball scoreboard work offline?
Yes. Once the page is loaded, the scoreboard runs entirely offline. Your game state is saved locally, so even if you lose connection during a game your scores are preserved.
Can I resume a game later?
Yes. If you close the tab or lose connection mid-game, open the scoreboard again and tap Continue on the Recent Matches card. Your game picks up from the exact clock, score, and foul count you left.
