Quick Setup

A step-by-step walkthrough of your first match day with Scored — from creating a league to collecting payments on court.

Step 1: Create a League

Navigate to Leagues in the left sidebar and click New League. Fill in:

  • League Name — e.g. "Tuesday Night Netball"
  • Sport — select from Cricket, Netball, Volleyball, Basketball, Football, Badminton, or Pickleball
  • Start Date and End Date
  • Game Price and Season Price — used when collecting payments via the POS or daily log
  • Registration Settings — whether registration is open or invitation only

Click Save to create the league. You can edit all settings at any time from the league's Settings tab.

Step 2: Add Teams

Open your league and go to the Teams tab. Click Add Team to create teams manually — enter the team name and assign a team contact. You can add players to each team immediately, or do so later as players register. If open registration is enabled, players can register and form teams from the venue's landing page or kiosk.

Step 3: Schedule Fixtures via the Calendar

Go to Calendar in the sidebar. Click New Fixture to schedule a match — select the league, home and away teams, court, and date/time. For a full season, use the Auto-Schedule tool inside the league's Fixtures tab to generate a complete round-robin draw automatically.

Step 4: Open the Daily Log on Match Day

On the day of your fixtures, navigate to Daily Log in the sidebar. This is the main operational screen for staff — it shows all fixtures for today grouped by court, with check-in status, payment status, and player attendance per fixture. Use the date picker at the top to browse fixtures on any date. Staff can mark players as checked in and record payments directly from this screen.

Step 5: Launch the Scoring App

Open the Scoring App on each court-side device. The app's dashboard shows upcoming fixtures sorted by time — find the relevant fixture card and click Start Scoring to go directly to the scoring screen. Alternatively, use the Quick Game panel to create a casual match on the spot: select sport, choose a template, enter home and away team names, configure advanced settings (periods, overs, etc.), and click Create & Start.

Step 6: Collect Payments via the Kiosk

Open the POS App on your kiosk device. Staff sign in with their PIN. Go to the Terminal screen and select the Fixtures tab. Find the relevant fixture — each team shows a PAID or OUTSTANDING status. Click a team, choose the payment type (game per team, game per player, season per team, or season per player), then select a payment method — Cash, EFTPOS, or Split — and complete the transaction.
