Match Day Scoring

Q: How can I, as team admin, score the match and enter in incidents and injuries using the Rugby Match Day app?

Note

  • You must have 'Team Admin' or 'Scoring Admin' user permissions and for your competition to be published before you score the match in Rugby Match Day App.

Scoring Options

  • Score my Team: recommended option, as you will only be required to manage your own team's scores and movements.
  • Score both Teams: when only one scorer will manage both team's scores and movements. Both team managers should not select this as it will duplicate the scores.
