Horizontal Ticker Embed

The horizontal ticker is an animated horizontal block that displays multiple scores from your district or association. It cycles through live and completed games automatically, and can be filtered by sport, level, and sublevel.

For more information about virtual scoreboards and web tickers, see the Virtual Scoreboards feature page.

Requirements

• A ScoreBird account
• Your district or association identifier from the ScoreBird Portal

JavaScript Method (Preferred)

The JavaScript method is the recommended approach. It handles responsive layouts and avoids the sizing issues common with the iframe method.

<div id="scorebird_ht_widget"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
  window.addEventListener('load', function () {
    ScorebirdHorizontalTickerWidgetV1.init({
      selector: "scorebird_ht_widget",
      district: "",
      level: "",
      sport: "",
      sublevel: "",
      all_sports: "",
      association: "",
      live_final_only: true,
      auto_navigate_timeout: 5000
    });
  });
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://widget.scorebird.com/scorebird-horizontal-ticker-widget-v1.min.js" async></script>

iFrame Method (Alternative)

Use the iframe method if you cannot add JavaScript to your page (e.g., some website builders).

<iframe
  style="border: 0px;"
  frameborder="0"
  width="100%"
  height="150"
  src="https://widget.scorebird.com/horizontal-game-widget.html?district=&all-sports=soccer,football,volleyball,field%20hockey&live_final_only=true&auto_navigate_timeout=&association=&sport=&sublevel=&level=">
</iframe>

Parameters Reference

Parameter	Required	Description
selector	Yes	The id of the <div> element where the widget renders
district	Recommended	Your ScoreBird district identifier
association	Recommended	Your ScoreBird association identifier (use instead of district if applicable)
level	No	Filter by level (e.g. varsity, jv)
sublevel	No	Filter by sublevel
sport	No	Filter by a single sport (e.g. football)
all_sports	No	Comma-separated list of sports to include (e.g. soccer,football,volleyball)
live_final_only	No	Show only live and final games; hide upcoming games (true/false, default true)
auto_navigate_timeout	No	Milliseconds between score rotations (default 5000)

Either district or association is strongly recommended — without one, the ticker has no scope and will not display games.

Troubleshooting

• No scores showing? Verify your district or association value is correct in the customer portal.
• Too many sports? Use all_sports with a comma-separated list to limit which sports appear.
• Ticker not fitting my layout? Switch to the JavaScript method — it adapts better to varying container widths.
