Live netball scoring & statistics

EVERY GAIN. EVERY TURNOVER. EVERY SHOT, EVERY MISS.

CourtSide turns the volunteer with the iPad into your club’s most valuable analyst. Live scoring, live stats, a live scoreboard for the sideline — from a single tap on the court.

Free trial Score your first quarter free — no licence, no card.

  • 7 court positions
  • 25 court zones
  • 16 turnover types
  • 0 paper sheets
01

For stat takers

One screen. One finger. Tap a shot — select the shooter position — done. Substitutions, turnovers, and centre passes are two taps each. Works on the bench iPad even when the venue Wi-Fi doesn’t.

Offline note: scoring keeps working without internet — the live scoreboard, live stats and Buddy enrichment go quiet until the connection comes back.

02

For coaches

Watch the stats fill in as the game is played. See exactly where possession is being won and lost, who’s shooting from where, and which combinations are converting.

03

For supporters

A live scoreboard your grandparents can read from the sideline. Same scoreboard streams to anyone with the link — no app, no login, no membership database to maintain.

Live capture

Built around the court, not a form

Every interaction is anchored to a real position on a real court. You’re not filling in a spreadsheet — you’re tapping the place the thing happened.

  • 25-zone court — shots, turnovers, and gains all land on the spot they happened.
  • 16 turnover types — from intercepts to held balls, classified properly.
  • Two-phase centre passes — the centre pass and the next receiver, tracked every time.
  • Rebound credit — attacking and defensive, with the right player attached.
  • Substitutions in two taps — on-court swaps included.
  • Offline-ready PWA* — bad reception at the venue won’t cost you a game’s data.

* The live scoreboard, live stats and Buddy enrichment all need a connection — they reconnect and catch up automatically once the venue is back online.

Share the load

Solo by default. Bigger crew when you can.

One volunteer with an iPad runs the whole game — that’s the way most clubs score with CourtSide and it’s the way the app is built. When you can bring a second or third person along, two optional roles step in to take pressure off the stat taker and make the stats more accurate without changing how scoring works.

Stat taker Required

The primary volunteer with the iPad on the bench. Captures every shot (shooter and made/miss), every centre pass and phase 2 receive, and the location of every turnover and gain. The whole scoring flow works with this one person and nothing else. Works fully offline — the only way your shooting stats survive a venue Wi-Fi outage.

Caller Optional

A second volunteer with their eyes on the game and no device in their hands. Calls out events to the stat taker — “miss, GA, top of the circle” — so the stat taker’s eyes never leave the iPad. Nothing gets missed while the primary is mid-tap, and accuracy goes up across the board. Anyone who knows netball can do this; no tech skill required. Coaches often pair a junior helper here so they pick up the stats vocabulary by listening.

Buddy Optional

A third volunteer on a second device running the Buddy app. The stat taker stays focused on where each event landed; the buddy fills in who turned the ball over and why — player attribution and turnover reason. Splits the cognitive load when scoring gets busy. The buddy app is shown on the right.

Stats that teach

Lead colour tells the story

The shooting table tints green when you’re ahead in a quarter, amber when you’re level, red when you’re behind — so a coach on the bench knows in half a second where the game is turning.

  • Shooting % by player, position, quarter, and zone.
  • Centre-pass success and gain-to-score conversion.
  • Court time tracked to the second — including on-court position swaps.
  • Turnover & gain heatmaps over the court’s 25 zones.
  • Per-period breakdowns for every metric, not just the final tally.
