PLAYER CENTER

o The comp sheet for your match

o The schedule
    
o The live scoreboard for your division as it actually happens.
    
o The race matrix for new players

LIVE SCORE BOARD
• Pressing this option all you have to do is put in your Div ID.  This gives you all ongoing matches for that division as they are happening.  You can view your own match here as well just to make sure it is being entered correctly.
• The opposing team, the one not keeping score, should monitor the match on this option.  Pay particular attention to the bonus points given.  You don't want your player to not get what they deserved.

• Press Go Back when done.

SCOREKEEPER:
• Click on Scorekeeper App
• Put in the Division ID (ie 4985
) and ONE of the captains ID playing the match (preferrably the home captain).  Only ONE person can keep score.  Everyone else can monitor the match on "Live Score Board"

  • The default for make up match is NO.  If it is a regular match leave as it is.  If it IS a make up match answer YES and then pick the date you were supposed to play.
• Click “Sign in”
• Here you can view and do many things.  Enter a matchup, view the Comp sheet, the scratch sheet, the schedule, the live scoreboard, add a player, send NAPA a message, view the race matrix and rules, and logout.
• At the top you will see home team and visiting team.  The progressive team skill level total will be displayed as you enter the matches (260 limit).

• Enter a match:
    
o Click “enter a matchup”.  
    o If a make up click yes

    
o Click on the down arrow or in the space to select the winner of the lag.  Choose from the correct team.  A comp sheet will also appear below the winner of the lag and opponent.
    
o Click on the down arrow or in the space to select their opponent from the other team.  Click submit.
    
o Notice the team skill levels changed on top.  That is the team handicap total at that point.  Everything is entered for you.  The yellow boxes are the maximum number of games allowed.
    
o When the first game is complete click the box for the winner of game 1.  The wins total on the far right will change.  Mark each game as it is won and the total keeps changing. If you mark the wrong winner of a game you can change it by selecting the correct game for the right player.
    
o Click the down arrow to select the number of bonus points like 8 on the break (snaps) or break and run (BO) or rackless.  Keep a running total of BO (Break and Outs) and snaps. Rackless is either a yes or no.  Should put a “N” when it appears like it is a rackless when it is not.  For example, won the break and all games but fouled on a break thus losing the rackless.  The hill to hill bonus point will be added automatically.
    
o When the match is complete click “finished”.  A pop up window will come up if the player on top shows they won the lag and all the games asking if it was a rackless match.  Just press "Yes" or "No".  The scores will turn red showing the match has been sent off to NAPA.
    
o You can enter another matchup at the same time if you are running two tables.  Just click “enter a matchup” again and enter the second match.  You can do this at the same time as the first match.  
    
o You will notice an “X” by a player that has played to prevent you from selecting him twice.

  • FORFEITS!!  No one likes forfeits but how do you handle them on this app?

    o Must be the last match.  Enter the player that will receive the forfeit the usual way.  The team receiving the forfeit must list the player first.
    
o Click FORFEIT on the team having to forfeit.  It is located at the bottom of the team roster of the team that has to forfeit.  Click Finished.  Done!!

  • TIMEOUTS.  You can keep track of timeouts by:

    o Clicking on the winner of the lag.  A window will come up with the correct number of timeouts for each player.  Simply close the window to finish.

Oops!!  Make a mistake?  Like wrong person or wrong player who won the lag.  You can start all over again if you haven’t clicked finished.  Notice, there is an “X” to the left of the match.  This deletes the entire match.  Then you can enter the correct data.  The system will ask you to confirm the deletion before it will delete it.
o If you marked the wrong game for the wrong person simply mark the game for the right person and it changes.
o What if you already clicked finished?  The match will still be displayed but where there was an “X” to the left of the match earlier there will now be an “E” for Edit.  Click “E” and the match will return so you can make adjustments or even delete the match.

NOTE:  You will not be able to go back and edit a match once the fourth matach is "Finished".

• Want to see what is going on in other matches around the league?  Just click “Live Score Board” and select the match you want to view.

• Adding a player:
o Click on Add a player
o Click on “Existing Player” or “Brand new Player”.

  • On existing player just click on the down arrow and find the new player and click on them.  They are automatically entered on your team and all data!
  • On Brand new player enter their name, gender, and handicap.  However, this is very dangerous because I want to verify the handicap of all brand new players before you enter them as it is instantly added to your team.  So just call me with their name and handicap and I will give you permission to enter them at a designated handicap.


• Send a message to NAPA.
o You can send a message to NAPA such as player X did not get a rackless because they fouled on the break.  Or Team X will do a makeup match Friday
.  Typically make up matches should be make up before the next league match.

After all matches have been sent to NAPA, click “Logout”
and you are done!!  The handicaps will be updated by 9 AM the next morning and maybe by the time you get home that night!

Y
ou can do the electronic scoring for makeup matches as well.  Just click NO for current date and then put in the date that you are making up.
