If you are a production company covering sport, you already know how weekends can feel.
10 fixtures. 3 operators. 3 laptops. Everyone is juggling scoreboards, sponsors, and team sheets at the same time.
Most production companies hit the same wall: they want to take on more games but cannot justify the extra payroll.
That is where OBScoreboard comes in. It helps production teams handle more matches per weekend without hiring a single extra staff member.
The hidden time killer: Graphics prep and matchday setup
Every live stream has the same routine:
-
Set up the scoreboard template
-
Add team names and colours
-
Drop in sponsor logos
-
Double-check everything before going live
That all sounds simple until you are doing it ten times in a weekend.
Most teams spend 25–40 minutes on pre-match setup per game. Multiply that across ten fixtures, and you have lost an entire workday before you have even gone live.
With OBScoreboard, that same setup takes under 10 minutes, saving five to six hours over a single weekend.
The Shift: One dashboard for every game
OBScoreboard control dashboard showing multiple live sports matches managed simultaneously.
OBScoreboard was built for exactly this challenge.
Instead of managing each broadcast separately, your team can handle everything from a single control panel.
-
Create overlays once, then duplicate them across every match.
-
Assign each operator their games with pre-filled templates.
-
Update scores, timers, and team formations live from a laptop or mobile device.
No more jumping between Photoshop, spreadsheets, and OBS templates. Everything is ready to go from one screen.
Real Example:
From weekend chaos to total control
One of our customers, a regional production company in Ireland, used to spend their weekends rushing between games, reconfiguring graphics, and trying to keep everything in sync.
They were constantly under pressure, juggling multiple scoreboards, changing team line-ups, and occasionally having crew members mix up formations between different matches.
After switching to OBScoreboard, everything changed.
Now they pre-configure all their scoreboards before the weekend, saving them as templates for each club. If there are any last-minute changes, they can update everything in seconds.
During matchdays, they can run multiple live games at once, with overlays already prepared and synced.
Their crew can even watch from the sideline while controlling the live score directly from their phone.
Here is what changed:
-
They built one set of branded overlays and re-used them across all clubs.
-
Team line-ups and sponsors were uploaded once and auto-filled for matchs.
-
The broadcast director now manages all score updates remotely from a tablet.
The result:
– More games per weekend
– Consistent sponsor placement
– No increase in staff costs
Their team estimates OBScoreboard saves around 30 minutes per match, adding up to six hours saved every Saturday, and far less stress between games.
Key Features That Make It Possible
1. Match Templates You Can Duplicate in Seconds
Copy and customise overlays for each fixture without rebuilding graphics.
2. Sponsor Slot Automation
Upload sponsor logos once and let OBScoreboard automatically assign them to the right layout.
3. Remote Control for Live Updates
Update scores, substitutions, and timers from your phone. Perfect when your operators are split across different venues.
4. Multi-Sport Ready
From soccer, football and rugby to basketball, tennis, padel, pickleball and GAA, each sport has tailored overlays ready to go.
5. Team Formation Builder
Add team line-ups and formations with simple drag-and-drop 4-3-3, 3-5-2, or your own custom layout.
Why scaling without hiring matters
Hiring new staff for every extra match quickly eats into your profit margins.
Wages, training, extra hardware, and coordination all add up fast.
OBScoreboard changes that.
It lets one operator handle multiple streams efficiently and keeps graphics consistent across every broadcast.
This means your company can confidently take on more matches, expand into new sports, or cover tournaments without worrying about staffing limits.
The Payoff: More Streams, More Revenue, Same Team
Every additional match you can take on means more billable hours and more sponsor value.
And when graphics look polished across every stream, you win the trust of clubs, leagues, and sponsors who expect professional results.
That is how many of our enterprise customers grow, by increasing output, not headcount.
