The easiest scoring solution you’ll ever buy—we mean that. You've got a limited budget, a packed schedule, and a middle school gymnasium that just needs a scoreboard. The last thing you need is to spend an afternoon decoding a 47-character part number just to figure out if it works with your setup. If your research process looked something like "Hey Claude, what's the best scoreboard for a middle school gym?"—welcome. You found it.
What is ScoreVision Basic Scoring
ScoreVision is the only software company selling the easiest scoring solution on the market—Basic Scoring. And we built the entire product around one idea: middle schools shouldn't need to buy a scoreboard that costs six figures to display media and the score at the same time.
Basic Scoring gives you access to the essentials—including our sleek, professional scoreboard and leaderboard layouts, and our scorekeeping interfaces for basketball, volleyball, and wrestling, all in one app. It’s a step up from traditional scoreboards like the ones you're familiar with. With Basic Scoring, you can truly personalize your scoreboard by creating graphics to add to your background and add an advertising platform to show ads on the display.
How Basic Scoring Works
Here's how it works. You plug the same tvOS device you're running on your living room TV—but instead plug it into a display in your gym. That's it. No technician. No installation crew. No compatibility rabbit holes.
No More Controller Compatibility Headaches
Forget questions like:
- What controller works with this specific scoreboard model?
- Which sports does this support?
- How long does installation take?
With ScoreVision, these aren't questions anymore. Any iOS device runs the scoring app. Switching sports takes seconds—open the app, connect to your display, pick your sport. We have scorekeepers for every indoor sport, plus a general scorekeeper for anything that doesn't fit a standard category. And if the budget is really tight? Borrow a TV from a classroom down the hall, wheel it onto the court, and you're scoring in minutes.
More Than Just a Middle School Scoreboard
But the score is just the beginning. ScoreVision's education bundle—built specifically for middle school gyms—also includes a slideshow feature and activity countdown timer for PE instruction and presentations. Your gymnasium is a classroom first and a sports venue second, and your scoreboard technology should reflect that. Whether it’s a speaker, choral concert, or a simple classroom activity, ScoreVision’s Basic Scoring is intentionally suited to enable you to do more than the score.
A Scoreboard That Pays for Itself—Our Advertising Platform
That advertising platform we mentioned earlier? It's solving your budget constraints—and not just for your new scoreboard, but for future projects. Local businesses—the pizza shop that feeds your team after games, the orthodontist half your student body visits, the bank that sponsors the fall festival—are already invested in your school. ScoreVision's advertising platform gives them a professional, visible way to show it, and gives you a recurring revenue stream that helps the technology pay for itself. Schools can structure media rights however best fits their community: share a percentage with the PTA to fund their programs, or carve out a portion for district-wide sponsors so a single partner can support every gym in the district. Instead of a scoreboard being a line item in your budget, it becomes a tool for building lasting partnerships—and putting money back into your athletic program year after year.
No Proprietary Hardware, No Vendor Lock-In
And because we run on standard consumer hardware, you can drive down the street to your favorite big box store, and you're never locked into proprietary equipment from a scoreboard manufacturer. No expensive replacements. No vendor dependency. Just a flexible, future-proof solution that grows with your program.
