Nightlydata rebuild

Live now: college football, women’s soccer and women’s volleyball. Basketball is being built — make an account and you will be told the day it opens.

What you get

Five sheets. Every sport. Every time.

The spotting board's layout changes with the sport — a formation for football, a squad list for soccer — but the kit never does.

Sheet 1

The matchup page

Both records, both slates, the season numbers side by side — so a comparison can be read aloud without holding a figure in your head.

Sheets 2 & 3

A spotting board per side

Numbers, vitals, season lines, who plays behind whom — and the respellings typed where the name actually is.

Sheets 4 & 5

A photo roster per bench

One sheet a team, the number set large, big enough for a camera operator to match a face from across a truck.

Yours to change. Type a pronunciation beside any name, add a note, swap a player, take one off the board. It prints the way you left it.

How it works

Where the data comes from

You are going to say these numbers out loud.

✓
What the schools publish Rosters, results, season statistics and staff, taken from the pages the programmes maintain themselves.
✓
Checked against a second source Where two independent publishers agree, a number is trustworthy. Where they disagree, we say so instead of picking one.
✓
A number that cannot be true never prints Every figure is bounds-checked on its way to the page. A blank tells you that you have nothing; a wrong number does not.
✓
Rebuilt every night Rosters move all season. The sheets are refreshed nightly, and regressions are alarmed on rather than discovered on air.

Who it's for

Play-by-play and analysts

The chart you would have built by hand on Thursday, waiting for you — with the pronunciation box already beside the name you were going to have to ask about.

Directors and camera operators

Print the photo rosters and hand them out. Number, name, position, in a grid that can be scanned from across a truck without asking anyone to repeat themselves.
