Can players enter scores or only admins?
Yes! Players can enter scores right from their cell phones and before submitting final results the admin can review or make changes to any of the matches. We recommend before starting announce to players to have only 1 person per court enter the scores for their match to avoid error. Some groups prefer to just report scores to the admin to submit.
