Basketball scoreboard software that runs on the computer you already have

Two windows: a control pane on the desk computer, and a full-screen scoreboard on the wall display, always in sync. Clock, score, fouls, possession, timeouts, rosters and your own logo — run by one volunteer who was handed the laptop five minutes before tip-off.

macOS — ready to deliver today Windows — coming soon

Free for unlimited games, forever. Every download includes 21 days of Pro — no card, no key.

Turn a TV or projector into a full-size scoreboard

Plug the computer into whatever is already on the wall — a TV, a projector, an LED panel — and the scoreboard fills it. No console to mount, no wiring to run, and no second box to buy.

The ScoreFlow wall display with player stats up: team names and scores, the game clock, period, shot clock, timeouts, fouls and bonus for each side, both rosters listing points and personal fouls, and the gym's logo in the center
Stats up — every player's points and fouls, for the crowd and the coaches.
On the wall display

Scoreboard

Full screen, read-only, built to be legible from the far baseline. It only ever shows what Control sends it, so there is nothing on the wall to knock out of sync.

On the desk computer

Control

Every button the operator needs on one page that never scrolls. Score, fouls, clock, timeouts, possession, announcements and the horn — all reachable without hunting mid-game.

The ScoreFlow control pane on the desk computer: game clock with start, reset and adjust buttons, a break timer, period and shot clock controls, possession, a horn button, both team cards with jersey numbers and plus-one, plus-two and plus-three scoring, foul and timeout buttons, an announcements composer, and the roster with points and fouls per player
The control pane, driving the same game. One page, no scrolling, nothing buried in a menu.

Or drop the stats and go big

One click hides the rosters and the score fills the wall. Raise stats between quarters when people are reading them; drop them for play, when the only things that matter are the score and the clock — legible from the far baseline.

The same ScoreFlow wall display with player stats hidden: two large scores, the period and game clock filling the center, the shot clock beneath, timeouts, fouls and bonus for each team, and the gym's logo along the top
Stats down — the same game, sized for the back row.

The banner everybody watches for

Every basket, foul and timeout announces itself across the bottom of the wall — the scorer, the points, the call — then clears itself and gets out of the way. Players look for their name. Parents finally know who that was. And when you need to say something the game can't say for you, type it and send it.

The ScoreFlow wall display with a full-width teal banner along the bottom reading SCORE — 2 PT — #11 J. CROSS, beneath the scores, game clock, shot clock, timeouts, fouls and both rosters
Scored, called and announced — without anyone touching a microphone.
  • It announces itself. Add two points to #11 and the banner writes itself. Nobody has to remember to post anything, and nobody has to look up from the game to do it.
  • Say anything else you need to. "Blue team to the far bench", "last call for the concession stand", a birthday, a sponsor — type it, send it, and it takes the same banner.
  • It knows when to leave. Announcements clear themselves after a few seconds, or hold on the wall until you drop them if it is something people need time to read.
  • The horn backs it up. Sound the buzzer from the same panel, with your own horn sample if the built-in one isn't right for the room.

Built for whoever is at the table tonight

Most gym scoreboards are operated by a parent, a student or a volunteer who has never seen the software before. That is the whole design brief.

The clock is never a surprise

Quarters or halves, overtime, and a shot clock tied to the game clock so it can never drift. Periods can advance themselves at 0:00 — after holding on zero long enough for the gym to see it.

A break timer for between quarters

Its own countdown, independent of the game clock, in amber so nobody mistakes it for game time. It horns at zero and clears itself.

Undo, eighty times over

Every score, foul and period change can be taken back with ⌘Z. A wrong number on the wall is a thirty-second problem, not an argument.

Rosters from the file you already have

Import from CSV, Excel or Numbers. Save up to forty teams to a library and load one in a click, with names, numbers and colors ready to go.

Player stats on the wall

Points and fouls per player beside each score, raised between quarters and dropped during play. Export the whole game to CSV when it's over.

Your logo, not ours

Drop in your gym's logo and it sits on the wall display all night. Team names and colors are yours too.

It survives the room

The game is written to disk on every change, so a knocked cable or a flat battery costs you nothing. It will never quietly restart a clock on you after a relaunch.

No internet, no hardware, no dongle

  • The scoreboard runs offline. The clock, score, fouls, timeouts and horn never touch the network, and your license is checked on the computer rather than against a server — there is no validation request, ever. When the gym wifi drops in the third quarter, the scoreboard doesn't notice. ScoreFlow does check for a new version when it has a connection; switch that off in Settings and it makes no network connection at all.
  • It uses the computer and the screen you already own. Any laptop or desktop at the scorer's table, any TV or projector on the wall. No control console, no wiring, nothing to mount.
  • No USB key. Nothing to lose, forget, or hunt for ten minutes before tip-off.

Available today. The free version is a download; for Pro, contact us to purchase and we'll set your gym up with a licensed copy. Prices are per sport, per gym — one license covers every computer at your address. Your license is verified on the computer, never against a server, and no license is ever switched off remotely. If a license ends, the scoreboard carries on as the free version — nothing is deleted. What happens when a license expires.

What it doesn't do

Worth knowing before you buy, not after.

  • Basketball only, today. Volleyball and pickleball are planned as separate add-ons. Neither exists yet, and neither is included.
  • It is not a video board. No sponsor reels, no replays, no live streaming overlays. It is a scoreboard.
  • One court at a time. Two courts means two computers — which the site license already covers.

Common questions

No. ScoreFlow runs on a Mac you already own and shows the scoreboard on whatever display is already in the gym — a TV, a projector, or an LED panel with an HDMI input. There is no console to mount, no wiring to run, and no USB dongle to keep track of.

Yes. The scoreboard window is a normal full-screen window, so anything the computer can drive as a second display works — projector, TV, or panel. The operator keeps the control pane on the laptop screen while the scoreboard fills the wall.

No. The scoreboard runs offline — the clock, score, fouls, timeouts and horn never touch the network, and your license is checked on the computer rather than against a server. If the gym wifi drops in the third quarter, the scoreboard doesn't notice. The one thing ScoreFlow does use a connection for, when it has one, is checking whether a new version is available; if there's no internet it simply doesn't check, and nothing about the game changes.

Yes — read the operator manual in your browser, or download it as a PDF. Twenty pages covering setup, running a game, announcements, rosters, stats export, keyboard shortcuts and troubleshooting. No form and no email: read it before you download anything. It is written for the volunteer at the scorer’s table, so the PDF prints well and can sit next to the laptop.

That is the whole design brief. Most gym scoreboards are operated by a parent or a student who has never seen the software before, so the clock is never a surprise, every action can be undone, and the controls are big enough to hit without looking down.

Yes. Unlimited games, forever, with no account, no card and no expiry. It is the same app everyone else runs, not a cut-down demo — a gym can run a whole season on it. Six features are held back for Pro: rosters, player stats, saved teams, the break timer, stats export and your own logo.

No. Download it and run it tonight. We ask for your name, email and organization so we know who is using ScoreFlow — we never sell that and we do not send marketing unless you tick the box. Every download includes 21 days of Pro, which starts at first launch and needs no key.

ScoreFlow checks nesflow6.com for a new version when it opens and every few hours after that, and installs one the next time you quit — never during a game. The check sends nothing about you, your games or your computer: it asks our server for a version file and that is all, so it cannot tell us which version you are running, which computer you are on, or who you are. If the check fails or there is no internet, nothing happens and nothing is shown. You can switch it off in Settings, and then ScoreFlow makes no network connection at all.

Your license tells you 30 days ahead, naming the exact date, and runs through 11:59 PM on its last day. After that ScoreFlow keeps working as the free version — the clock, shot clock, score, fouls, timeouts, horn and announcements never stop. Rosters, player stats on the wall, saved teams, the break timer, stats export and your own logo need a current license. Nothing is deleted: renew and it all comes straight back. If you need the full version for one more night, you have two bonus days you can switch on yourself, 24 hours each. And if you move ScoreFlow to a new computer, the full version keeps running for 7 days from first launch there while you get a new key.

ScoreFlow is free for unlimited games, with no account and no expiry. Pro adds rosters, player stats, saved teams, the break timer, stats export and your own logo: $349 per year for churches, schools and community centers, or $895 to own it outright. Commercial gyms are $499 per year or $1,295 perpetual. Every paid tier includes a site license covering every computer at your address, and every download includes a 21-day trial of Pro.

Not yet. macOS is ready to deliver today and a Windows build is coming — if you need one, tell us, because demand is what schedules it.

Basketball today. Volleyball and pickleball are planned as separate add-ons and neither exists yet, so nothing else is included.

Yes, with Pro. Drop in your gym's logo and it sits on the wall display all night. Team names and colors are yours on the free version too.
