Linear Scoring Course

To attend this course, you must be a competent Box style or electronic scorer already, as this session does not include any Laws of Cricket or scoring basics but takes your existing skills and transfers them to a linear style scoresheet.

During the course, you will be doing some linear scoring from a video of a game, so please bring your own pens/pencils. Linear scoresheets will be provided but if you have one of your own that you want to try out, please bring a paper copy of it with you.

Duckworth Lewis Stern (DLS)

This half day course aims to unlock the mystery of DLS and to explain about the two different forms (Professional and Standard) that are used. During the course you will try your hand at calculating DLS using both methods.

DLS Professional is calculated using software, for which you will require a laptop running the Windows ® operating system (v7 or later). You will need to bring your own laptop but the DLS software will be provided on the day. DLS Professional requires the latest version of Java (Java Runtime Environment), which you can download at no cost from the Java website. Please ensure Java is downloaded and installed before attending the course. If you cannot bring a Windows ® based laptop, you can be paired with someone else to during the Professional exercises.

We will be calculating DLS Standard manually. You will find the use of a calculator helpful and be prepared for lots of maths

PCS Pro Course

Scoring electronically has become ever more popular as a method of scoring and this workshop covers the use of Play Cricket Scorer Pro (PSC Pro®), which is a free scoring program for Microsoft Windows ® based computers, developed in conjunction with ECB ACO scorers and with direct links to the Play-Cricket League Management system.

This one-day workshop will take you through scoring using PCS Pro from setting up a match to printing out a scorecard or a player’s wagon wheel and will give you some handy hints on how to make amendments as quickly as possible, while play continues.
