LEARN MORE
"We have loved our partnership with Scoreboard Media! In addition to enhancing the game and fan experience, it has allowed us to build another aspect into our competitions: Our partnership with Scoreboard Media has allowed more students to be involved. Many of our students have interests other than sports or music, but are still eager to be part of our competitions and the production around that experience. It has become a great learning experience for them. And it has helped generate revenue that we previously did not have. That money has gone right back into our programs to keep them continuously improving."
"I have worked with Scoreboard Media for about 8 months now and they have been great. Charlie is always helpful and is easy to work with. We are hoping that are partnership with Scoreboard Media will not only upgrade our Gametime experiences for our student athletes and the community, but will also generate revenue for our athletic programs to help make APS one of the best in the State."
"Our partnership with Scoreboard Media Company has created valuable advertising and sponsorship opportunities that directly connect our school with local businesses. The LED video boards in our gym and at LPS Stadiums provide high visibility, professional platforms that enhance the game-day experience while generating much needed financial suppportfor student programs. Scoreboard Media has made the process seamless, and their commitment to building strong community relationships has been a tremendous benefit to our LHS athletic and activity programs."
Scoreboard Media and the officials from the school or district, often the Athletic Director and/or the Superintendent, work together to select equipment based on the school’s scoreboard wants and needs. Then Scoreboard Media puts together a professional sponsorship marketing package and launches the sponsorship effort. Depending on the size of the project, the number of venues and other factors, often times we'll pre-raise a portion of the sponsorships, but we also have programs that allow for the immediate purchase of boards. Not all schools will qualify.
Yes. Scoreboard Media purchases all the capital equipment, typically videoboards and scoreboards, computer/software racks, iPad controllers, etc., as well as freight and installation. The school is responsible for running power and data to the site(s) as well as the operating software license and any ancillary devices that may be purchased/installed simultaneously such as LED shot clocks, if desired.
YES, we work almost exclusively with high schools and even many private/Catholic schools, so we understand the need to ensure that the messages and advertising are appropriate for the audience and for the venue. All the usual suspects like politics, alcohol, tobacco, vaping, gambling, etc. are standard exclusions in our contracts, but we can add any other industries/categories and even specific names, as necessary. As an extra layer of security, the school has “veto” rights, which we’ve never had anyone use, but it’s nice to have. One of the additional benefits of digital advertising is that the copy can be removed immediately, with the click of a button.
All of the above, plus scorers tables! We’ve bought football (including track, general outdoor), baseball, softball, soccer and indoor (basketball, volleyball, wrestling, etc.). We don’t dictate what kind of board, that’s based on the school’s needs. The scoring and game production software can be customized for almost any sport you can think of.
Just like with your current scoreboards, the school is responsible for operating the new videoboards. The sponsorship program is largely run by the software, so operating the videoboards is often easier than operating the old equipment. It’s a very intuitive, iPad-based interface that’s very attractive and easy to use. In addition to keeping score, it will automatically track stats. Once the team (faculty, athletic staff, students, etc.) are comfortable, we can begin introducing fun features like instant replay and live streaming (to the included mobile fan app). We provide a complete training and educational program that has benefits far beyond athletics.
The school will have several options at the end of the contract. They may choose to end the program entirely, to continue on with the existing program, replace the equipment and agreement with all new equipment, or buy the equipment for a deeply discounted residual value.
