USA Pool League Scoring App

4/20/2021

 
One of the great benefits of the USA Pool League is free mobile scoring. There is no need for complicated score sheets, paper, pencils or a math degree. Simply login to the USA Pool League Scoring App, score the match and submit it to your League Manager.
🛑 The app can be downloaded from the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store by searching "USAPL."
Below is an overview of how to score a match with the app and submit it to your League Manager.

Scoring a Set

A USA Pool League team match consists of a number of sets in which one player plays one other player from the opposing team. Each player races to his or her race-to number as determined by their Fargo ratings.
Picture
After selecting your team's match, you will see the number of sets scheduled for that match. This example is for 3-player teams (i.e. 3 sets). Select "START SET" to begin scoring.
​---
Picture
Select the players for the set, the race length and which team gets the first break. New players, those not already on your team's roster, can be added by clicking the + icon. Click the "START" button after selecting the players.
​---
Picture
The set is displayed with each players' race-to number. In this example, Anthony is racing to 50 points while John is racing to 31 points. Click "Score Game #1" to score the first game (rack).
​---
Picture
This example is scoring 9-ball. The balls that each player pockets for 9-ball & 10-ball must be tracked. Simply flick each ball up or down to indicate which player pocketed each ball.
​---
Picture
Anthony won the game (14 points) with John pocketing two balls (2 points). There are also options to track whether the win was a break-and-run, table run, win-zip or win-on-break. Click "FINISH" to record that game.
​---
Picture
The set screen now displays the current score and how many points each player needs to get "on the hill" (i.e. within 14 points of winning the match). Click "Score Game #2" to begin scoring the next game.
​---
Picture
Anthony won game #2 by a score of 14-5. Click "FINISH" to record that game and view the set screen.
​---
Picture
The score is now 28-7 in favor of Anthony after two games. Click "Score Game #3" to begin scoring the next game.
​---
Picture
Although Anthony made eight balls, John won game #3 by legally pocketing the 9-ball. Therefore, John gets 14 points for the win and Anthony gets 8 points for the eight balls he pocketed.
---
Picture
The set screen now shows the score to be 36-21 in favor of Anthony. It also shows that both players are within 14 points of their race-to numbers (indicated in red). Therefore, the winner of the next game, wins the set regardless of who reaches their race-to number first.
​---
Picture
Anthony won the game 14-4 by pocketing the 9-ball early. Note that balls not pocketed do not get moved to any player. 
​---
Picture
The set screen indicates Anthony as the winner of the set. Now that a set is complete, pull the blue "SCORESHEET" bar up to display the current match score.
​---

Team Scoresheet View

Once a set has been scored, you can view the overall team score sheet by dragging up the blue bar labeled "SCORESHEET."
Picture
Pulling the score sheet up displays the current overall score of the match. Anthony has earned 112 points for his team (100 points for the win plus 12 margin of victory points).
​---
Picture
Select the other team to view its overall score. John has earned 25 points for his team because that was his total score after losing his set.
​---

Timeouts

Each player may take up to three timeouts per set. A timeout is a maximum of 90 seconds. The USA Pool League Scoring App makes it easy to manage and track timeouts.
Picture
To begin a timeout, click "TOs" under the name of the player who is taking the timeout.
​---
Picture
A 90-second timer will begin.
​---
Picture
The window will indicate when the 90-second timeout expires.
​---

Handoff Feature

It's common for more than one person to keep score. For example, you may be scoring the first set on your phone but you may have to play in the second set. You can handoff score keeping duties to a teammate with the Handoff feature.
Picture
To handoff score keeping, click the arrow icon in the upper right corner of the screen.
​---
Picture
This generates a handoff code. When your teammate selects the match using his or her mobile device, it will ask for this code. He or she can then pick up where you left off.
​---

Win Scenario

When there is only one set remaining in the match, it is helpful to know what each team needs to do in order to win the match. After setting the final set lineup, the "WIN SCENARIO" feature will do this for you. You can even view the win scenarios for different players to determine your best final set lineup strategy.
Picture
Set #2 was scored in the same manner. Miguel won the set because he won the final game with both players being "on the hill."
​---
Picture
When there is one set remaining, it is helpful to know what your team needs to do to win the match. Set the lineup for the final set and pull the score sheet up.
​---
Picture
Click "WIN SCENARIO" to see exactly what each player needs to do in order to win the match for their team.
​---
Picture
In this example, Ray on team The Sandbaggers, needs to score at least 18 points for his team to win the match.
​---
Picture
Conversely, the final player on team Mark's Team needs to hold his opponent to 18 points or fewer for his team to win the match.
​---

Final Match Score

Once all sets are scored, the overall score sheet for both teams can be reviewed. To submit the score sheet to the League Manager, click "SUBMIT MATCH." Both teams are encouraged to score the match and compare score sheets at the conclusion of the match for accuracy. Both teams may submit the match.
Picture
In this example, Steven did in fact hold his opponent to fewer than 18 points.
​---
Picture
This shows the overall scoresheet for The Sandbaggers.
​---
Picture
This shows the overall scoresheet for Mark's Team.
