Balls! – The Cricket Scorer

media_1306426725469.png

Balls! is a score keeper designed specifically for cricket fans. It keeps track of the stats so you don’t have to!

Version 2.0 of Balls! has been completely redesigned from the ground up. Balls! is now a complete score keeping solution – and it’s easy enough to use while umpiring. All you need to do is enter the delivery details and Balls! keeps the score and tracks the statistics of the batting and fielding teams!

An eagerly awaited addition has been the action replay function. The user has the option of recording every ball using iPhone’s built-in camera and using the recordings to review umpiring decisions – all from the best seat in the house – right at the wicket! You have the option of saving each clip so players can enjoy their highlights and batsmen can learn from watching the ways they have been going out.

At the end of the innings you can email the innings stats to the entire team with the push of a button. Video clips are sent also – a particular favourite of many of the teams we receive feedback from!

Joanne’s compassion, inclusivity, and humility are hallmarks in all that she does, and is particularly evident in the platform she has built. In her words, “We all have the potential to remove ourselves from the centre of any circle and to expand a sphere of compassion outward; to include everyone interested in mobile art, ensuring every artist is within reach”, she has said. Promotion of mobile artists and the art form as a primary medium in today’s art world, has become her life’s focus. She has presented lectures bolstering mobile artists and their art from as far away as the Museum of Art in Seoul, South Korea to closer to her home in the UK at Focus on Imaging. Her experience as a jurist for mobile art competitions includes: Portugal, Canada, US, S Korea, UK and Italy. And her travels pioneering the breadth of mobile art includes key events in: Frankfurt, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Paris, Brazil, London. Pioneering the world’s first mobile art online gallery - TheAppWhispererPrintSales.com has extended her reach even further, shipping from London, UK to clients in the US, Europe and The Far East to a global group of collectors looking for exclusive art to hang in their homes and offices. The online gallery specialises in prints for discerning collectors of unique, previously unseen signed limited edition art. Her journey towards becoming The App Whisperer, includes (but is not limited to) working for a paparazzi photo agency for several years and as a deputy editor for a photo print magazine. Her own freelance photographic journalistic work is also widely acclaimed. She has been published extensively both within the UK and the US in national and international titles.
