Flexbord

In order to join a basketball competition in the Netherlands, you are obliged to handle a lot of administration work: all games need to be administrated by hand, the score sheet must be posted and your games result must be filled in on a site. For being late and for administration faults your club is being fined for extra money for Dutch Basketball Federation (NBB).

If you need to organize this for all your teams with just a few persons, you will make mistakes and you will need to pay more money you do not have. Another bad thing about the way things are organized is that not talent decides whether you will play in top competitions, but way your club is organized. To play in higher competitions you need to have Shot Clocks and you need to have referees, not talent. We had and still have talent, but no parents (referees) and money for shot clocks.

These problems and the fact that the registration of actions of a basketball game is a lot of work made me come up with the idea to build a system to organize everything for our club better. The result is Flexbord. Flexbord is not a scoreboard, it is an application, a tool, to make organizing sport easy for everyone. Now we share it with everyone!
