Everything you need for a professional tennis stream

No graphics operator. No OBS plugins. Just a browser.

  • Set & game tracking

    Track sets won and the current game score for each player. Update with one click and the overlay reflects it live on stream.

Frequently asked questions

What is a tennis scoreboard overlay?
A tennis scoreboard overlay is a transparent graphic that sits on top of your live stream video, showing the current set score, game score, and point score for each player — similar to what you see in professional broadcast coverage. ScoreLayer renders this as a browser source you add to OBS, Streamlabs, or vMix.
Does ScoreLayer work with OBS Studio for tennis streams?
Yes. Add ScoreLayer as a Browser Source in OBS Studio. The overlay has a transparent background so it composites cleanly over your court camera. You control the score from a separate browser tab — no need to touch OBS during the match.
Can I track sets, games, and points at the same time?
Yes. The ScoreLayer tennis scoreboard lets you show set scores, the current game score within each set, and the live point score (15, 30, 40, Deuce, Advantage) all at once. You decide which elements to show — if you only need sets and games, you can hide the point display entirely.
Does it handle tiebreaks?
Yes. During a tiebreak you switch to the point counter and update it manually — the same control you use for the regular game score. The scoreboard displays whatever value you enter, so tiebreak points work exactly like any other score update.
Can I show player seedings and nationalities?
Yes. The control panel lets you add a seed number and a country code for each player. Both appear alongside the player name in the overlay, which is particularly useful for tournament broadcasts where viewers may not be familiar with all competitors. The seeding shows as a bracketed number next to the player name — leave it blank for matches where seeds are not relevant, such as club or county-level events.
Can I update the score from my phone at courtside?
Yes. The ScoreLayer control panel works on any phone or tablet browser. Walk the baseline and tap to update between points — no laptop or extra hardware required at courtside. The overlay on the stream reflects your update instantly. This is particularly useful for outdoor tournaments where keeping equipment on court is impractical — one person can run the camera on a tripod while another handles scoring from a phone.
Do I need to install any software?
No. ScoreLayer runs entirely in the browser. You just add a URL as a browser source in your streaming software — there is nothing to download, install, or configure on your computer. The browser source overlays your tennis scorebug — set scores, current game score, and live points — transparently over your court camera. You can update the score from a phone at courtside without touching the laptop running OBS.
Does it work with Streamlabs and vMix?
Yes. Any streaming software that supports a browser source or web URL input works with ScoreLayer. This includes Streamlabs, vMix, Wirecast, and most other professional streaming tools. For tennis tournaments with multiple court cameras, vMix is a popular choice — ScoreLayer runs as a browser source layer on top while you switch between camera angles. Streamlabs works well for single-court club streams and academy match days.
Can I use ScoreLayer for padel or pickleball?
Absolutely. The tennis scoreboard works for any racket sport with a similar scoring structure — padel, pickleball, platform tennis, and more. Just label the sets and games however suits your format.
