How to Score in BallerCam for Soccer (Primary or Secondary Device)

Scoring in BallerCam helps create a professional, engaging game experience for fans and players. You can score directly from your filming iPhone or from a secondary iOS device using the BallerCam app.

✅ Reminder: Creators and Members can score games. Fans cannot.

📱 Scoring from the Filming iPhone (Primary Device)

Considerations

• Not practical if filming from a tall tripod — you won’t be able to reach the screen.
   
• Works if filming from low setups like bleachers, tables, or walls.
   
• You can always enter the final score at the end of the game when you lower your tripod.
   
• Scores can be edited after the game in the BallerCam app.
   

How to Score on the Primary Device

1. Start the stream.
    
2. On the filming screen, tap the Score button (sport-specific ball icon next to the Stop button).
    
3. You’ll see + / – paddles appear on each side of the screen for each team. (Team colors match what you selected during game setup.)
    
4. Tap + to add a point or goal. Tap – to remove or correct a point.
    
5. Tap the Score button again to hide the paddles if you want to clear your view.
    

⚙️ Period Selection: When you score the first point, BallerCam will prompt you to select the current time period (1st half, 2nd half, etc.).

Editing Scores

• Tap the pencil icon next to a team’s abbreviation to manually edit the score or team details.
   
• On this screen, you can also adjust jersey colors or correct team names if needed.
   

Attributing Goals to Players (After the Game)

• If you’re scoring from the filming device, you cannot tag players in real time.
   
• After the game:
   
  1. Go to the Games tab.
      
  2. Select the game you want to edit.
      
  3. Scroll to the Scoring Plays section.
      
  4. Tap the pencil icon to edit specific scoring plays.
      
  5. Adjust the timestamp (optional).
      
  6. Assign the scoring play to a player on your roster.
      
  7. You can also add missed goals here.
      
• BallerCam will automatically generate highlight clips that cover 15 seconds before and after each marked goal.
   

📲 Scoring from a Secondary iPhone (Recommended)

Scoring from a second device is much easier and more common.

Who Can Score

• Creators
   

• Team Members with Scoring permissions.
   

  

How to Score from a Secondary Device

1. Login to the BallerCam app using your creator or member account.
    
2. On the Home tab, you’ll see a game in progress: “[Creator’s Name] is streaming live” You’ll also see how long ago the game started.
    
3. Tap View Game.
    
4. Tap the white button: Keep Score.
    

5. You’ll now see the live scoring interface.

   
    

Scoring Interface (Secondary Device)

• Select Time Period (1st half, 2nd half, etc.).
   
• Tap Goal every time a team scores.
   
• Edit Score at any time if you need to make adjustments.
   
• Attributing Goals to Players:
   
  • After you score a goal, BallerCam will prompt you to tap on the jersey number of the player who scored.
     
  • You can select any player from your roster.
     
  • If the player isn’t listed, tap the empty jersey with the “+” sign to add a new player immediately.
     
  • If you don’t know who scored, tap “I’m not sure” to skip player attribution.
     

Assists in Soccer

• You can also track assists by entering the player’s number when prompted after each goal.
   
• If you’re not interested in tracking assists, there’s a “Skip Assists” toggle you can activate.
   

Viewing and Editing Player Stats

• On the Roster tab during the game, you can see each player’s live stats for goals and assists.
   
• You can toggle “Track Player Statistics” on or off if you want to hide this data.
   
• To edit stats:
   
  • Go to the Game Log tab and tap the pencil icon next to any scoring entry to edit or delete it.
     
  • You can change the player, scoring team, or remove the action.
     

Post-Game Editing

• After the game, creators and members can both access the Scoring Plays section in the game edit/summary screen.
   
• This section is identical to what’s available to creators on the primary device.
   
• You can:
   
  • Adjust timestamps.
     
  • Attribute missed scoring plays to players.
     
  • Add new goals or points that weren’t captured during the live game.
     

👥 Multiple Scorers & Visibility

• The BallerCam app will show who is currently scoring the game (based on the last person to enter a point or goal).
   
• There’s no way to “claim” scoring responsibility in advance — members may need to coordinate offline.
   
• Multiple scorers are allowed. Creators and members can score simultaneously, which is great for crowd-sourcing the task.
   
• Be cautious to avoid accidental duplicate entries when multiple people are scoring at the same time.
   

✅ Key Reminders

• Scoring is optional but enhances the experience for fans and players.
   
• Scoring can be done from the filming iPhone, a secondary iPhone, or both.
   
• Fans can see scores update in real time but cannot score themselves.
   
• Final score alerts will be sent to all team fans and members.
   
• Scoring overlays will appear on the livestream and replay, including the team colors selected during game setup.
