How Live Youth Scores works

Scores reported by people at the game, labelled by their published status. Fixture pages can show permitted player names; children are not searchable.

A parent’s guide to getting started

What the labels mean

UnconfirmedJust reported. Useful straight away.

CorroboratedBacked up, so it’s more certain.

VerifiedConfirmed.

DisputedBeing checked. The match keeps being scored.

To score a match, you need to be at the ground: the score page asks for your location.

Children stay private by default

Match pages show shirt numbers, and a player’s name once it’s confirmed. Pages that show a player’s name are kept out of search engines.
Nobody can search for a child. Children cannot be searched for. Public career sharing is unavailable in the current testing service.
Household details stay private. My kids holds your private family links; it does not switch on public career sharing.
Coaches never message a child privately. Notices go to the whole squad and their guardians, one way.
Your data is yours. Ask for a copy, or ask us to erase it, from Privacy and your data.

For parents

Follow your child’s matches and they show up on your Today page. Add your child under My kids: their details stay inside your household.

For coaches

For schools and clubs

Register with your own eligible school email to manage a school account. Community-added schools can be used for matches before registration.

Check your administrator status on School. Team tools and event organising also depend on the registered season and your role.

Apps and agents

Other apps and AI assistants can read public, nameless scores, and act for you only with your permission and within the limits you set. You see what they do and can disconnect them at any time. Connected apps
