Setup
On the game settings screen enter the location and team names. You can choose from the drop-down or type in a custom team name.
These are optional. You can just click ‘Start Game’ for a quick start (teams will be named Team 1 & Team 2).
You can set minutes per half, the play clock time (in seconds), and the number of timeouts per half.
Click the button if you need a coin toss and then click ‘Start Game‘.
Game Play
- Game Clock: Start and stop as needed. Resetting will reset the number of timeouts for the second half.
- Play Clock: With ‘Auto Advance’ selected, starting the play clock will advance the downs.
- Downs: The down can be manually advanced by clicking the numbers.
- Scoring: Click the buttons to add specific scores or use + and – to manually alter the score. When clicking a button you’ll be able to enter the players numbers to fill out the score log.
- Defensive Stats: Click the button to add a player number in the right field to log a defensive stat.
