Water polo scoring app for clubs and tournaments

Eggbeater is a water polo scoring app for clubs and tournaments: a volunteer scores each game from a phone or from Eggbeater Desk, and every family follows the live score on any phone in about five seconds, with no account. Scoring is free for a club’s teams and hosting a tournament is $199 an event; other apps are a better fit for some jobs, and this page says which, using only facts we read and dated on their own pages.

Eggbeater

A volunteer scores each game at the player level for both teams (goals, assists, exclusions, saves, timeouts, penalty shots and shootouts, with a shot map) from the Eggbeater app on a phone, or from Eggbeater Desk on an iPad, a Mac, an Android tablet or a Windows computer. Spectators follow in any browser with no account, or in the apps for iPhone, iPad, Android, Apple Watch and Apple TV.

Live scoring, the live page, game stats, the game report and season History are free for a club’s teams (two age groups). The Club plan is $24.99 a month or $199 a year for the whole club; tournament hosting is $199 an event with pools, brackets and flights. Eggbeater is independent and is not affiliated with any governing body. It does not film from the phone: its live video needs a separate camera.

6-8 Sports Game Desk

6-8 Sports makes Game Desk, a scoring desk for iPad and the web, and the 6-8 Scoreboard, a public site with real-time scores and play-by-play. USA Water Polo named 6-8 Sports its official statistics provider on 2022-06-21. Game Desk Basic is free for one team; Game Desk Pro is $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year (2026-11-05). Its own page says Game Desk cannot be used on a phone.

Pick it for an event 6-8 already scores. Full comparison: Eggbeater vs 6-8 Sports.

The Water Polo App

The Water Polo App, from Activebeans, is a free iPhone app that scores a game and shows followers the score, the play-by-play and the stats; a second iPhone can film the game with the scoreboard on the video. It is for iPhone only, and a shared game link asks you to download the app and create a free account (2026-11-05).

Pick it for one team that wants its games on video from two iPhones. Full comparison: Eggbeater vs The Water Polo App.

Water Polo Stats

Water Polo Stats (Water Polo Team Stats on the App Store) is a stats app that records or streams the game to YouTube from the same phone or tablet, and builds highlight reels for each player. It is free to try, with a subscription at $12.99 a month or $99.99 a year (App Store, 2026-11-05).

Pick it for free video of each game that relatives can watch. Full comparison: Eggbeater vs Water Polo Stats.

Water Polo Scorebook+, AquaScore and KAP7

Water Polo Scorebook+ (Scorebook Plus Inc.) is a free iPhone and iPad app that scores a game and keeps team and player stats with CSV export, and shows a scoreboard with an optional game and shot clock on a TV or projector over HDMI or AirPlay. Its listing does not describe a live page for families away from the pool (App Store, 2026-11-08).

AquaScore is a free scoreboard and game manager for macOS, Windows and Linux: game timers, possession, goals, exclusions, tournament groups and brackets, and CSV or JSON export (its Product Hunt listing, 2026-11-08; we found no official site).

KAP7 Live is a connected system of LED scoreboards, wireless shot clocks and software for clubs, schools and venues. Its Digital Scorecard and Live Scoring, a web page fans can follow, are $1,995 a year each; scoreboard kits are priced by quote and the first year of Digital Scorecard comes with a kit (KAP7, 2026-11-08).

Pick Scorebook+ or AquaScore for a free scoreboard at the pool, and KAP7 for a club or venue that wants LED scoreboard hardware with the software.
