5/5A MUST for roller derby!
If you have a iPhone and work as an official in roller derby, this is a must. Works 100%. The girls in the box find it much easier to read what their time remaining is. Just make sure that you set the phone into airplane mode to keep anyone from calling/texting you while timing penalties.

Awesome app!!!

5/5Best app for penalty timing
I have been using a version of this app for almost seven years and have to yet to find anything better. It is constantly updated to the changes in rules and have always been solid.

5/5Takes the stress out of a stressful position.
I’ve been using this app for several years and it keeps getting better. There is no easier way to run a box. Now if it only did the paperwork.

5/5Great derby app!
What a great penalty tracking app! In the past I've done the stopwatches taped to a clipboard trick, but not only does this app make tracking penalties faster, it also saves you the problem of missing a stopwatch when tracking multiple people in the sin bin. AND it has the forethought to allow you to set custom penalty times, such as someone getting a double-major or when a jammer becomes a blocker due to a jammerless jam.
