System Tournament has now created a range of computerised products to make like more bearable the Games Director and his committee on the day of the big tournament.
Producing a results sheet very quickly at the completion of a round and particularly at the end of the tournament, is now possible without the problems associated with a large scoreboard where the teams are listed in a fixed position and the sighting of the Tournament Leader and placegetters is a somewhat lengthy search.
Systems Tournaments produces a results sheet within ten minutes of receipt of the last card , listing the best performed team at the top of the page , the second best performed team next and so on. All points and margins and the proportional calculation when required are recorded for each team.

Each product is individually built to the requirements of the conditions of play and the scoring system for that particular tournament
This product has been developed to bring Lawn bowls on line with many other sports that have jumped on board the " information highway" and have taken advantage of the magic of the P.C. Our computer age has presented us with a marvelous tool that enables us to avoid a lot of agony and pain in the planning stage and particularly the recording of scores accurately during a tournament and arriving with a winner in quick smart time.
A major innovation of this product is in the publication of a very readable results sheet at the end of each round and at tournament end to enhance the overall presentation of the tournament and the sponsors.
The product contains a comprehensive collection of data which is displayed on the computer screen not only on a score sheet in the same format as the Official Score Board but also by Each Round on a separate screen display plus a Section Leaders Page.
Scores can be entered as early as the first completed end and at any stage of the game there after. This will provide the Tournament committee, spectators and the players with up to date information on the state of every game in each section plus showing the six teams in each section listed in Order of Current Performance.
The round results sheet and all the other pages of data can be accessed by the touch of a button and if required , can be printed at any time during the tournament.
A listing is available immediately each section has a score recorded to each team in the section . This applies to all 6 sections.
The conditions of play for each sectional play tournament includes the allocation of points for a win and a tie. These points are applied to the product.
System Tournaments
2 Days of Fours / Triples / Pairs
This product has been formulated to assist the Tournament Organiser with the management of the Main Scoreboard by presenting a very clear and accurate report at the end of each round and to provide spectators and players with an easy-to-read print -out of the tournament to date.
This report -" Round -Results" - records all results of the round and offers an easy checking facility to compliment the Main scoreboard and will be produced within ten minutes of receipt of the last scorecard of the round.
This is of particular significance at the completion of the last round where a printed results report will be available quickly. The hiccups and the resulting delay associated with a large scoreboard is avoided.
"Round Results" lists the current tournament leader at the top of the page with the second placed team and so on down the page showing margins and points gained by each team together with the proportional calculation for each team as detailed in the Laws of Bowls.
The "Round Results" for sectional play likewise lists by performance , within each section , the section leader then second best and so on.
"Round Results" is printed after each round for distribution to players and spectators and also has the sponsors logo or message.
