Update down and distance
Tap the down after each play and adjust the distance. A first down resets it. This is the part the scorer will thank you for handing them.

Score, with the right points

Manage the clock and timeouts
On Advanced, start and stop the game clock from the scoring screen and tap a timeout to take one off the board. When regulation ends tied, step into overtime and the broadcast reads OT 1.

Sports with a game clock
Football joins basketball, soccer, ice hockey, and lacrosse as the clock sports. All five show overtime the same way, on the broadcast, your phone, and the remote scorer.
