Linear Scoring Courses
Linear is the paper-based scoring method used by many scorers in the professional game as a back-up to their electronic scoring. Whether you choose to score on a laptop or tablet there is always the potential for technical issues. Linear Scoring is a quick and effective way of keeping a paper record, and much more straightforward than trying to complete a scorebook. Our four-hour course will give you all the skills and opportunity to practice.
