Game day, every day

More than the score.

A scoreboard helps fans follow the game, gives athletes a professional stage and opens new sponsorship revenue. NEXT helps you choose the size, pixel pitch, brightness, mounting and controls before you buy.

Retrofit

Upgrade your scoreboard without starting over.

Most schools don’t need a full tear-out to go from fixed digits to full color. NEXT displays fit existing structures and work with your current scoring system.

Before After
  • Keep the structure.STAX is the lightest display on the market, so retrofits need smaller lifts and crews.
  • Match the size.1′ × 2′ modules fit most existing scoreboard openings.
  • Keep your scoring.Works with Daktronics, Nevco, OES, Fair-Play and more.

Sponsorship

Turn your scoreboard into a sponsorship asset.

Rotate sponsor logos, run video commercials and animated ads during pre-game, halftime and big moments. Families, students, alumni and local business owners are already watching, and sponsorship revenue can help offset the cost of the scoreboard over time.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about LED scoreboards.

Straight answers about revenue, indoor vs outdoor, software and how long a scoreboard lasts.

01 How does a digital scoreboard generate revenue for a school or sports venue?

Unlike a fixed-digit board, a NEXT digital scoreboard is a 365-day advertising platform. With sponsor zones that rotate, schools can sell digital sponsorships for pre-game, halftime and big moments during the game. Many programs recoup their investment quickly; one generated over $12,000 in sponsorships in its first two months.

02 What is the difference between indoor and outdoor LED scoreboards?

Outdoor scoreboards are built for sunlight and weather, with 5,500+ nits of brightness and IP65 sealing against rain and snow. Indoor scoreboards are built for clarity up close, with a tighter pixel pitch (about 1.9mm to 3.9mm) so stats and player photos stay crisp for fans near the court.

03 Does a NEXT scoreboard need a dedicated IT team or complex software?

No. Every NEXT scoreboard includes cloud-based control software. Staff or students run the game clock, live stats and sponsor rotations from a tablet or laptop browser, and updates arrive automatically, with no local servers or on-site IT setup.

04 How does solid-state engineering extend a scoreboard’s life?

Traditional scoreboards often fail because of moving parts like cooling fans and relays that wear out in high-vibration stadiums. NEXT displays use solid-state components rated for 100,000 hours, which means 10 to 15 years of reliable performance for a typical athletic program.
