Most youth sports tournaments don't have a scoreboard. Sideline Score is the one in your pocket. Built for parents on the sideline of football tournaments, baseball diamonds, basketball gyms, and soccer fields, Sideline Score is the fast, no-fuss way to keep score during your kid's game — so you stop doing math in your head and start watching them play. WHY PARENTS LOVE IT • One-tap scoring. The score is the biggest thing on screen, exactly the way it should be. • Configurable scoring rules per tournament — touchdown points, PATs, interception scoring, all dialed in once and then forgotten. • Save every game. Browse them later that night, or three months from now. • Personalized to your family. Your kids' names. Your team's colors. The app feels like it belongs to you. • Works offline. Sideline reception is unreliable; the app isn't. • No accounts to create. No ads. No tracking. SUPPORTED SPORTS • Football — Tackle, Flag, and 7-on-7 • Baseball, Softball, and Tee Ball • Basketball • Soccer • Lacrosse FREE TO TRY • 1 child, 1 team, 1 sport, up to 8 games • Curated team-color palette • Local-only storage on this device PREMIUM ($2.99, ONE-TIME PURCHASE) • Unlimited children, teams, and games • All sports unlocked, switchable any time • Full team color picker • iCloud sync across all your devices • Family Sharing supported YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Sideline Score is a single-purpose tool. Your family's data lives on your device and, if you upgrade to Premium, syncs through your private iCloud account. We never see it. The only thing the app sends us is anonymous, privacy-first usage statistics — never your names, teams, opponents, or scores, and never anything that can identify you. Built for parents, by a parent. Made for the moment your kid scores and you want to remember it.
