Run a Aussie rules tournament from a phone

Footy carnivals and junior lightning premierships pack short games onto a few ovals. Set the quarter or half length once, and every game is scored in goals and behinds and advances its winner automatically.

Every match uses Aussie rules rules
  • Goal +6 and behind +1 buttons, scoreline shown 10.12 (72)
  • Four quarters on a clock that counts up; pause it for time-on
  • AFL, AFLW, finals extra time and junior presets
  • Super goal house rule for pre-season style games
