Default The next great invention.........

of miniature football, what will it be????

I hope someone comes out with a scoreboard. Handheld, tabletop, or mountable to the field it self. Miggle's is just okay. The display is too small. The size is good, but you can't see the display unless you pick it up, and hold it to your face.

I know this is not on the list of many people, since a lot of leagues use plays instead of time. But for the NEFL & PEFL of Philly, and the DFW, (that's over 70 coaches between those 3 leagues) a better device would be great.

That's my choice, anything you coaches have in mind?

Default One exists

There is a scoretable timer that just came out a few years ago for lacrosse. It keeps the game clock plus three separate penalty times on it. All run together. This could work - but the cost - about $175.00 I believe!

There is also one you can run from a PC - but you would still need to reset the play timers after each play - but ,oghtwork.

Google Lax timer

Default hey corey, scoreboards

I have my eyes on a table top scoreboard. very profresh looking. I cost $419 and i saw some for $500. Imay just get it for season 2 of the b.a.m.

It would add to the game greatly.

Default I saw those Dre

They were a little big, and a lil costly. I'm looking for something maybe a lil bigger than the miggle scoreboard, but with better, and bigger display.

It can have a set up timer as well as the game time. The quarter, and maybe a ball next to the team on offense. Have a detachable face so you could change the home team. This would take away the need to have 3-4 timers around a game table.

RR, keep me in the loop on this one! If a new scoreboard is on the table in Reggie's World, Nat'l wants to put in a pre-order!!!

Reg, I told you via our last convo. that there was need. I know you have the plans already, but the cost is the challenge.
