A typo in a team name, a missing logo, a venue you didn't know yet: you don't need a new match to fix any of these. Every detail you entered when you created the match can be changed from the Control Dashboard, even while the game is live. This guide shows where each one lives.
Where match details live
- Open the match's Control Dashboard from your match list.
- Open the Overlays tab, then the Customization sub-tab.
- Pick a graphic from the list on the left (on a phone, the row of buttons at the top).
Each graphic has its own section, and each section holds the details that graphic shows. That's why a team's name can appear in more than one place: the short scorebug name in Score Bug, and the full name in Title Card and Scoreboard.
| What you want to change | Where to find it |
|---|---|
| Short names on the scorebug | Score Bug: Away Team and Home Team |
| Title on the scorebug | Score Bug: Title |
| Team logos on the scorebug | Score Bug: Away Team Logo and Home Team Logo |
| Sponsor logo on the scorebug | Score Bug: Sponsor Logo (Network Logo in baseball and softball) |
| Full team names, mascots and records | Title Card: Away Team, Away Team Mascot, Away Team Record and the same for home |
| Venue, city and state | Title Card: Venue, City, State |
| Names on the break and final scoreboard | Scoreboard |
| Team colors | Classic: each graphic's Color Customization panel. Apex and Primetime: Graphics Template |
Change the scorebug names
The scorebug shows the short name you set when you created the match, in every template. To change it:
- In Customization, choose Score Bug.
- Type the new name in Away Team or Home Team.
The label depends on the sport. Soccer says Away Name and Home Name. Ice hockey, field hockey, MMA, tennis and pickleball say Player 1 Name and Player 2 Name. Doubles matches also have Player 3 Name and Player 4 Name for the partners.
Keep scorebug names short, like the four-character names from match setup, so they fit the bar.
Changes save on their own a moment after you stop typing, and the overlay updates. There's no save button.
Change the title, logos and venue
- Title: in Score Bug, type it in Title, for example "District Semifinal". Tennis, pickleball and MMA also have a Subtitle.
- Team logos: in Score Bug, click Upload Away Team Logo or Upload Home Team Logo and pick an image. Click Remove Logo to take one off. The Title Card section has its own Away Logo and Home Logo.
- Venue: in Title Card, fill in Venue, City and State. These show on the title card before the game.
Logos must be image files under 5 MB.
Change team colors
How you change colors depends on the match's template.
- Classic: each graphic has a Color Customization panel beside its fields. Use Match Colors sets every team color field in that panel back to the team colors from match setup. Reset puts the whole panel back to its defaults.
- Apex and Primetime: one set of colors covers every graphic. Open Graphics Template at the bottom of the Customization list and change Away team color and Home team color under Colors. The other graphics' sections show a note pointing you there.
See Switch templates for every Apex and Primetime color.
On the Free plan
The Customization tab comes with the Starter plan. On Free it shows as a dimmed preview with Upgrade Now, so you can't change names, logos or the venue after the match is made.
If you're on Free, check every name, logo and color on the Preview step before you click Create Match. See Create your first match.
Fix common problems
I changed the team name but the scorebug didn't change. You probably edited the Title Card or Scoreboard name. The scorebug uses the names in the Score Bug section.
"File Too Large" or "Invalid File Type" when uploading a logo. Use a PNG or JPG under 5 MB.
The color pickers are missing. The match is on Apex or Primetime. Change the colors in Graphics Template instead.
A field changed back after I typed in it. Wait a moment after typing before you move on. If you see "Change not saved", type it again.
