IntroductionBallStat/BallScore


BallStat and BallScore are two separate programs with two different purposes.


BallStat is used to accumulate stats and create reports. All you need to get started with BallStat is to create your league. Teams and players will be added when you import your first scoresheet. You will need to score your games with BallScore then import a teams scoresheet into BallStat ( see BallScore below ). Once the first scoresheet is imported you will be able to create an unlimited number of reports using BallStat. You only need to create a report once as all reports will reflect the most current stats each time a report is opened.  


BallScore is used to score your game. You can score your game live using a laptop computer or copy your paper scorebook into BallScore at home. The whole game as it is scored ( both teams ) is known as a scorebook. You can save a whole scorebook in the form of a sbk file to disk at anytime. This would allow you to reload the scorebook to finish scoring a game or to simply review a previously scored game. Each teams portion of the scorebook is known as a scoresheet. When a game is over you export each scoresheet ( or just your scoresheet if you don't want to track the other team ) to disk in the form of a sbx file. This sbx file will contain all the statistics and other information that BallStat will need to import and accumulate stats for reports.
