Frequently Asked Questions

A free, online basketball scoreboard that runs in any browser. It tracks team scores, fouls, quarters/periods, and a game clock, with a large display mode for projectors or TVs and a controller view for the scorekeeper.

Yes. You can run a configurable game clock with quarter/half settings, and the buzzer sounds when the period ends so players hear the stop on a speaker or stream. A separate shot clock countdown is available for organisers who need it.

Yes — the scoreboard exposes a transparent overlay URL that you drop into OBS or Streamlabs as a browser source. It works for league streams, high-school broadcasts, and pickup-game streams alongside your camera feed.

Coaches, parents, school PE teachers, gym operators, rec-league organisers, and streamers who broadcast amateur, school, or pickup basketball. It's also popular for “basketball scoreboard simulator” use cases — fan-made content, training videos, and YouTube edits.

Yes — both team names, colours, and logos can be configured before tip-off, so the scoreboard can match team kits or a school's branding. Paid tiers add ad-free display and sponsor logos.

Sport-specific apps like Hudl and ScoreCenter, dedicated hardware scoreboards from Daktronics or Nevco, Mac-based broadcast software like Renewed Vision's ProScoreboard ($2,500/year), and DIY OBS plugins. KeepTheScore is the lightest of those: it works on any device, is shareable by URL, and costs nothing for a basic game.

Each board has a viewer-only link you can paste into a group chat, embed on a school site, or display on a courtside TV. Viewers see live updates without being able to change the score.

"We use Keepthescore.com to update our livestream through OBS and it is FLAWLESS. I chose it because it was the easiest to incorporate into OBS and easiest to update. No installation needed, just adding a simple weblink and you're up and running!"

"I use Keepthescore.com for an annual Twitch event with roughly 300 players and it never lets me down! Scores are super easy to add or remove, the designs are very clean and adding images and easily being able to share a public link is what made me a loyal user, truly nothing does it better!"

"The scoreboard works amazingly well with OBS. Our scorekeeper has been very happy with how simple it is to operate and keep track. We have the output ran to a large TV and the audience is able to easily see the team names and score throughout our game."

"I use Keepthescore for my son's high school ultimate frisbee game streaming. It works great. Very easy to use and I love that another parent can keep score while I'm busy with the video streaming. The interface is so easy that you only need about 30 seconds to train up a new user!"
