BMBL uses GameChanger as our preferred baseball scorekeeping app. While the app is very easy to use, there are little tips and tricks that can be helpful to scorekeepers and fans - see the links at the bottom of this page. Scorekeeping tips include recommendations for best practices to aid in consistency and ease-of-access across BMBL teams.
Why GameChanger?
GameChanger is an easy-to-use scorekeeping and team management app for smartphones and tablets. Coaches can use the app to communicate game and practice schedules to their teams and for players to RSVP to those events. Scorekeepers can use the app to electronically score the game. If a game is scored with a device that has an internet connection, fans of the team can 'watch' the game stream live, similar to ESPN GameCast. They also have a video streaming option. All of this makes GameChanger ideal for family and friends who are interested in keeping tabs on the game but are unable to attend in person.
Which version of GameChanger should I use?
There are two versions of GameChanger:
- GameChanger << this is the one BMBL uses (the green logo)
- GameChanger Classic
BMBL is using the new GameChanger instead of GameChanger Classic because of the video streaming feature. For prior users of the GameChanger Classic app, the user interface is almost exactly the same, so the transition should be easy.
You can get the GameChanger app for Android or IOS, for phones or tablets by going to this download page. Admins can also access GameChanger from a PC using their web interface.
