Great App … with a question!
Because of a recent change, they are shutting down their regular Internet website for stats.
If I choose another option to upload the stats for the players and their families, I have a slight problem.
Basically, I do the shots and fouls, using the app, but I do rebounds, assists and turnovers by having someone record them manually.
Is there a way to add the total number of rebounds etc. to a player’s stats for that game, and then process the report, or do I have to try to add them as individual entries?
Thanks

Plenty of different reports that’re customizable. Exports to MaxPreps.
I can send a backup file to Head Coach so its all at his fingertips.
I’ll be using for a very long time.

Digital Scout
At that time I was going to run it on a palm pilot, but the cost of the equipment/software was not coming down at a rapid enough rate for me to move forward with a purchase.
Fast forward to today. I have three grandson’s playing. I was just going to track everything by hand (something I had gotten good with during my daughters playing days).
There was a player on my oldest grandson team that I thought put up a lot of bad shots and wished that I had been tracking his number to see if it was just an eye test thing or if stats would back up my conclusions. I remembered that a lot of those questions could be answered if I tracked the stats of the entire team.
I looked at software available on the Android platform and while there is a vast number of options, each lacked some feature that I wanted. If the data was easy to enter then reporting was bad. If it had reporting it would not include a shot chart of hits and misses.
Finally I took another look at Digital Scout. I knew it had everything that I wanted in a software package, but it ran on the Apple Platform.
I finally broke down and purchased a used IPad. Needless to say it is one of the best investments that I have ever made.
Tracking stats is straight forward and simple. The reporting is great and I can track multiple teams.
To help ease the work load on my end (when there are back-to-back rebounds and shot attempts you can have a hard time trying to enter stats and keep an eye on the action) I have found it helps if you partner with a “spotter” to work with you to help make sure you do not miss anything. Also, I only track the true status of our team. I keep up with the scoring of the opponent and in tough games the fouls of the opponents best players, otherwise work overload becomes a problem. If your player is in 6th grade or lower the action happens slow enough that you will not run into problems.
All-in-all I highly recommended it and just love the app overall.
This my 4th year of using it. I am VERY happy with my purchase and my only regret is that I did not do this sooner.
Buy with confidence!!!!

Customer service woes, but I love the app
My only complaint is that my attempt to get help from customer service fell on deaf ears, very disappointing considering the first time I reached out, they couldn’t do enough to help me.
I discovered a glitch in the latest version and I hoped to get it fixed. For some reason, the system randomly adds an additional free throw attempt as a miss when two or more free throws are recorded. There is no pattern to what triggers it to happen, but during the course of a high school basketball game, I’ll find 3 - 5 occurrences. I hope someone sees this and it results in an update to fix.
This app has gotten me through my two boys 4 year high school career and one college career. I’m looking forward to the start of a second college career with this app, hopefully, with an updated free throw fix!

Great scoring tool
Best stats app!
Easy to fix mistakes by editing the running play log. Export shot charts, which my coaches love and all major scoring and non-scoring stats.
