Run your bowling side action
from one iPad.
Brackets, eliminators, and high game pots — signed up, scored, and paid out without a recap sheet, a calculator, or a line of bowlers at your table asking who won.
Sign bowlers up
Name, lane, average, and which pots they want, as they walk in.
Start the event
Brackets generate instantly with the fewest possible repeat matchups.
Enter scores
Once per bowler per game — every bracket and pot updates everywhere, live.
Pay out
Winnings are computed the moment the last game locks. Check names off as you pay.
Built by a tournament director, for tournament directors
Smart brackets
8-bowler, 3-game elimination brackets that keep the same people from bowling each other over and over — even when someone buys five entries. Round-2 rematches are avoided by design.
Eliminator pots
Scratch and handicap eliminators with per-game cut scores. Set the cut, survivors advance automatically, and the cut line is obvious to everyone.
High game pots
Scratch and handicap high game for every game of the set. Standings sort themselves the moment scores go in.
Apple Pencil score entry
Write scores straight into the grid the way you would on a recap sheet — no keyboard popping over your hand. Lock each game when it goes final.
Payouts, done
Every pot is calculated automatically the moment game 3 locks. A paid checkbox for every bowler means nobody gets missed and nobody gets paid twice.
Live for your bowlers
Print a QR poster right from the iPad. Bowlers scan it and follow brackets, standings, and winnings live on their phones — no app to install, no crowd at your table.
The whole night, on one screen at a time
Your bowlers are already holding the scoreboard
Every event gets a QR code and a 5-letter join code. Post it at the counter and the whole house follows along at viewer.bowlingsideaction.com.
