Free Scoreboard
A universal two-team scoreboard with a game clock.
What is the Scoreboard?
Whenever two sides are competing — a driveway basketball game, a family board-game night, a five-a-side match — someone has to keep score, and 'wait, what's the score?' is the argument nobody wants. This scoreboard settles it: two big tap-to-score panels, a game clock, and names you can set, all on the screen everyone can see.
It saves the game on your device, so a stray refresh won't wipe the score.

What does this tool do?
It shows two large team panels. Tap a team's number to add points — one, two or three at a time, whichever you set — and use the minus buttons to fix a misclick. A built-in stopwatch times the game, and you can rename each team. The whole state is remembered in your browser between visits.
It's deliberately sport-agnostic, so the same board works for anything with two sides and a score.

Tips
- Set the points-per-tap before you start — 2 for basketball buckets, 1 for most other games.
- Cast or plug the screen into a TV so the whole room can see the board.
- Rename the teams to real names so nobody loses track of which side is which.
- Use the minus button the moment you mis-tap, rather than trying to remember it later.
- Reset scores and clock together from the reset button when you start a new game.
Common mistakes to avoid
Wrong points-per-tap
Fix: Set it to match the sport first, or every tap scores the wrong amount.
Forgetting to start the clock
Fix: Tap start when play begins; the stopwatch doesn't run on its own.
Not fixing mis-taps immediately
Fix: Use minus straight away so the score stays trustworthy.
Expecting cross-device sync
Fix: The game saves on this device only; run it on the one screen everyone watches.
