tournament software available. TourneyScore 2010, League/Bowling Center Edition is the basic module. It
handles standard type tournaments that have a team event (5's & 4's) , doubles, singles, and all-events. It
requires Excel 2007 or later. It contains a self-teaching tutorial. Prize fund division can be handled easily with
DivvyItUp! which can calculate payouts in seconds. Winners and payouts lists are easily created and printed.
The basic module, which handles up to 1,000 bowlers, can be expanded via a Composite Results Module to
handle tournaments with up to 30,000 bowlers, as described below.

The basic module of TourneyScore is suitable for managing league-level, local, and some city-wide events. It
handles 200 teams of 5 or 250 teams of 4. It is also usable for running standard doubles and/or singles
events or even isolated team events. It handles up to 1,000 bowlers. It is designed to be used by leagues,
bowling centers, tournament clubs, and local associations. You can have the results of your tournament in
seconds.
It is aggressively priced. Products & Prices.
If you have used SweeperScore or SuperSingles-n-Doubles or SuperSweeperScore, the look and feel will be
very much the same.
After feedback from users, larger editions and even newer versions of TourneyScore, possibly with additional
features, will be made available. However, all versions and all editions of the current version will be highly
price-competitive. The first level expansion module is already available, as described further below.
If you purchase the initial version and decide later you need a later version with more features, or a larger
edition of this version, we will give you a definite price break on the upgrade.
Purchase now or contact us for further information.
NOTE!
Facilitating software has now been completed which will permit the combining of scoring data from multiple
locations and/or multiple sessions so that results from very large tournaments, possibly spanning weeks or
even months, can be quickly sorted, printed, and even displayed on the Internet. It can handle up to 30,000
bowlers. Later versions will eventually enable the determination of, for example, the team rankings for a
national tournament having 20,000 teams and 100,000 bowlers and being bowled over a period of months in
Reno, Nevada, in the National Bowling Stadium or in a huge Las Vegas bowling center. Same thing for the
doubles rankings, singles rankings, and all-events rankings. Within minutes of the last teams finishing their
games, everyone interested, from coast to coast, could see the results on the Internet. You could find out
within minutes that your team from New Jersey placed 6,786th in the team rankings. That is the state of
current computer technology.
Why Did We Create This New Line Of Software?
The specialty events software lines such as SweeperScore, SuperSweeperScore, SuperSingles, and
SuperSingles-n-Doubles were so successful and so well-received that we decided it was now time to invade
and conquer the main/standard bowling events arena where I have seen and heard about a number of
ridiculous examples of nice people in the bowling world being totally fleeced by computer geeks. Perhaps the
most extreme example was a nice couple who spent $20,000 on software to handle their annual tournaments
and are way too embarrassed to admit they were totally taken to the cleaners. A little birdie told me they are
now in trouble because they need updates and can't arrange to get them.
I also have received several complaints (since early 2011) about software from another company that has
inadequate capacities, is slow, is hard to use, and has actually failed in the middle of tournaments, taking the
data down with it.
The initial version of TourneyScore was of moderate capacity (1,000 bowlers) with the emphasis on features
and ease of use. It can give you the results of a standard tournament in seconds. The recent addition of a
Composite Results expansion module will allow coverage up to 30,000 bowlers. Later versions will cover
even larger national and even multi-national level tournaments handling tens or perhaps even hundreds of
thousands of bowlers bowling in multiple divisions or regions. The expansion to the 30,000 bowler level is
just the opening shot in what can be done with modern technology.
I heard a while ago about scoring of a national tournament where it took five weeks to get score results out to
the participants. The TourneyScore software now available can reduce that to five seconds per event to
calculate the results and five minutes to get all results up on the Web for people from coast to coast or border
to border to review at their leisure, accessible 24x7. Bowlers in the very last squad can put on their street
shoes, walk into the bar, get a burger and a beer, connect to the Internet, and see the final results on their
laptop computer, tablet computer, or smartphone.
