bbstats vs LeagueApps
Youth-sports operations platform — how the two platforms differ for basketball leagues.
LeagueApps is a US-focused youth-sports operations platform built around registration, payments, facility booking and parent communication. Stats and live scoring are typically shallow or handled by third-party tools.
bbstats.am is the inverse: a basketball-specific multi-tenant platform centered on FIBA-grade live scoring, a phone scoring console, real-time public sites, OBS overlays, YouTube Live and federation box-score import — with lighter league-ops tooling today.

FAQ
Is bbstats a LeagueApps alternative for basketball?
Yes if your priority is game-day scoring, stats and a live fan site. LeagueApps remains stronger for youth registration, payments and parent apps.
Does LeagueApps offer FIBA-grade live scoring?
LeagueApps focuses on league operations. Sport-grade play-by-play, a phone scoring console, OBS overlays, YouTube Live and FIBA PDF import are bbstats features, not LeagueApps strengths.
Can I use both?
Some organizers keep an ops tool for signups and use bbstats for live scoring and the public league site. bbstats also offers paid registration for leagues that want one stack.
