PitchSide

PitchSide turns any iPad into a professional-looking scoreboard for your football ground — score, live clock, and penalty shootout, all in one. PERFECT FOR GRASSROOTS & NON-LEAGUE No expensive hardware. No complicated setup. Place your iPad on the touchline, in the clubhouse window, or behind the goal — anywhere supporters can see it. Then control everything from your iPhone. Both devices pair automatically via iCloud. No account or sign-in required. HOW IT WORKS Add a match and choose your format Place your iPad where supporters can see it Kick off from your iPhone — the iPad updates instantly WHAT'S INCLUDED A live, accurate clock A large minute counter fills the display, driven by the actual kickoff time — always accurate, readable from 30 metres away. Automatic side-swap at half-time At half-time the display switches home and away sides, so the team attacking your end is always on the correct side of the board. Full penalty shootout mode Track each kick — scored or missed — with a visual penalty grid that players and supporters can follow. The shootout ends automatically when a winner is mathematically certain. Controlled from the dugout The club secretary or a volunteer updates the score from their iPhone while the iPad stays on display. Enable read-only mode to lock the iPad display against accidental touches. Visibility that goes the distance The high-contrast display is optimised for outdoor use. The score is legible from 30 metres away — ideal for small grounds and 300-seat stands.
