SideBets App
Bowling side bets, live scores
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Run your league's side bets, blind draws, brackets, and full tournaments from your phone — with a live scoreboard the whole alley can follow. Free. Built by bowlers.
SideBets is the all-in-one app for running bowling league night — side bets, blind draws, brackets, full tournaments, live scoreboards, and your own personal scorekeeper, all from your phone. Built by bowlers, for bowlers.
RUN THE POT WITHOUT THE PAPERWORK
• Blind Draw Doubles — random partners, combined scores, drawn in one tap
• Brackets — 8-bowler single elimination that advances automatically as scores come in
• Full tournaments — scratch, handicap, or a traditional high game / high series split
• Multiple entries per bowler, with the pot scaling automatically
EVERYONE WATCHES LIVE
• A real-time leaderboard the whole alley can follow
• Anyone can follow along from any phone or browser with a 6-character code — no account needed
• Podium standings, lane assignments, and side-bet pots update the moment scores go in
SET IT UP IN MINUTES
• Pull your roster and lane assignments straight from League Secretary or LeaguePals
• USBC handicap built in (base and percentage configurable per event)
• A guided step-by-step takes you from check-in to cash-out
• Export final standings and payouts as a clean, printable results sheet
GAMETRACKR — YOUR POCKET SCOREKEEPER
• Frame-by-frame scoring with live pace and off-the-sheet projections
• Track which ball is carrying with MyBag
• Strike %, spare conversion, clean frames, and your best series — tracked automatically
• A Lock Screen Live Activity while you bowl
SideBets is a score-tracking and organizing tool. It calculates side-bet pots and payouts for reference only — all money changes hands between bowlers in person, and the app never processes payments.
Free to download. Built by Bowlers, for Bowlers.
