Read full description

The VolleyWrite Buddy connects to the Windows version (for now) of VolleyWrite via bluetooth or WiFi. The Buddy displays the team names, which sides of the court each team occupies, and their sets won as well as the players on the court (including where the libero should be, where the libero served and which team is serving) and substitution, timeout and challenge counts.   VolleyWrite is volleyball scoring software that helps scorers do their job! You can keep up with the action on the court with simple clicks, so you're not holding up the match. Scoring notation is generated for all the actions you enter. Rules are built in to ensure you enter only legal actions. VolleyWrite reminds you of sub counts and set point so you can share that with the officials. Of course, libero tracking is also included along with libero tracking rules and scoring notation.
