Tower Scoring · For the scorekeeper’s table

Scoring that knows the rulebook.

Tap the ice on an iPad and Tower Scoring records where every shot came from, every faceoff and every hit. It times the penalties, marks the power-play and shorthanded goals, and sends the final to every phone that follows the game.

Advanced Mode on an iPad: a tap on the ice opens Goal, Shot, Blocked and Missed around the spot.

What you can do

Everything at the table, in one app.

Every shot, where it came from

Advanced Mode on iPad: tap the ice where the shot came from, then goal, shot on net, blocked or missed. Faceoffs, hits and stoppages each have their own button.

In beta

Penalties that time themselves

Tower Scoring runs every penalty clock and ends a minor early on a power-play goal. Power-play, shorthanded and empty-net goals mark themselves, and the game-winner resolves on its own.

In beta

A backup for bad Wi-Fi

A paper scoresheet prints before puck drop. If the rink Wi-Fi drops, Tower Scoring shows what didn’t save and lets you retry.

In beta

Officials sign in the app

The refs sign the scoresheet from their own accounts, so the final is the crew’s too.

In beta

One scorekeeper, one phone

Rec Mode runs the whole game live from a phone: goals, assists, shots and penalties.

In beta

Paper sheets count too

Not scoring live? Photograph the paper sheet after the game. It’s checked before the stats count.

Available now
