Requesting assistance
During a busy event, a scorer may need an organizer — a scoring question, a dispute, a missing player. The Need help? button lets them call for help without leaving the full-screen scoring screen.
For players & kiosks
In the cornhole and Other Sport scorers, and on a kiosk, there's a 🆘 Need help? button at the top. Tap it and confirm to send an alert to the club's organizers; the button then reads Organizers notified.
The button appears only where it makes sense: on a match in a club's event, for the players in that match and on the court's kiosk tablet. It's never on a Quick Play game, even a club's own Quick Play, because there's usually no organizer around to answer (a wrong Quick Play score is fixed by the players with Fix score, see Confirming & disputing scores). Organizers don't see the button at all — they are the help. After a tap it waits a minute before it can be used again, so a button mash doesn't spam the organizers.
For organizers
When a request comes in, every organizer of that club sees an assistance banner at the top of every page — showing who asked and which court — regardless of whether they've turned on push notifications. If they have push on, they also get a notification.
The banner gives you a Go to match link and a Resolve button:
- Go to match takes you straight to the court that needs help.
- Resolve clears the request for all organizers — once someone handles it, it disappears for everyone.
Note
There's only ever one open request per match, so a player re-tapping the button won't stack up duplicate banner entries (though it can re-send the push as a reminder). Completed matches drop off the banner automatically.
This in-app banner is the reliable channel — push only reaches organizers who opted in, but the banner reaches every organizer the moment they're on any page.
