Scorekeeping has been on your wishlist and we’re thrilled to share that HiCast Sports now provides a new scorekeeping and scoreboard feature within our product so our venue partners, tourney organizers, and/or volunteers can keep score on our coverage. Users can now follow match/game scores while watching live, in DVR mode, or anytime on-demand.
Currently, only authorized users have the ability to keep score to ensure accuracy. The decision to score a tourney or a game is up to each of our venue partners, so while we can’t guarantee a scoreboard will be present, our tool makes it easy for our partners to share the score with you to keep you in the game. Over time, we look forward to expanding scorekeeping access to all fan volunteers to increase the amount of games scored across our network.
Volleyball matches can be scored in sets of 3 or 5 and we’ve built in logic to auto advance sets based on set score.
Baseball/Softball games can be scored with basic innings and runs, or more advanced scoring to track balls, strikes, outs and top or bottom of each inning. We’ve built in logic to auto advance innings on the third out and reset counts when a batter reaches a fourth ball or a third strike.
If you are interested to be among our test group of fans to score games in the future (yes, we’ll offer perks!), contact us and we’ll be in touch when we’re ready to roll that out.
