    Questions.

    Is this rugby scoreboard free?

    Yes, for club, school and social games alike. You pay nothing, sign up for nothing and your score stays on your own device.

    How many points is a try on this board?

    In union and sevens a try is worth 5, a conversion 2, and a penalty or drop goal 3. In league a try is worth 4, a conversion or penalty 2, and a drop goal 1. Switching the code changes the buttons.

    Why does the clock not stop at 40 minutes?

    A half in rugby ends when the ball goes dead after time is up. So the clock keeps counting, and you pause it when the referee ends the half.

    Can the rugby score go up on a big screen at the ground?

    Yes. Plug the screen in as a second display, open Second screen and slide the window across. One click fills it. The ground sees points, time and cards, free of any buttons.
