I had the pleasure of scoring Boise v. Purdue dual meet last Friday evening.

This was a last minute assignment, but no matter. From scratch, setup took about ten minutes and most of that time was spent scouring the Internet for suitable team logos (thank you, Amanda).

After the last match, I emailed the scorebook and box score to each team’s Sports Information Directors and posted the relevant reports to social media. Both officials praised the scoreboard layout and functionality.

Below are the benefits of scoring a dual meet (or tournament) with Takedown.

Of course, these reports are much more powerful as more events are scored. Trends and tendencies become obvious, post-event analysis is data driven rather than belief based. Your fan base is happier, it's easier to update your website or compose an email update. All the content you need is automatically generated and immediately available.  No logging into websites or copying from paper to a spreadsheet.
