Problem Statement

Sports fans and organizers face a gap in accessible, real-time match tracking tools.

It enables fans, commentators, and organizers to track ongoing matches with live updates, visualizations, and in-game statistics.

Goals

  • Deliver an interactive event timeline with animations for substitutions, cards, and other milestones.
  • Allow organizers to set up matches by creating teams, players, and schedules.
