Stats and standings calculated for you

One of the great parts about Sports Bench is that it does all of the calculations for you. Simply add in players, teams and games, and Sports Bench will calculate the standings and stats for you. There’s no extra math involved to figure out shooting percentage or total rebounds. You don’t have to do anything else. It’s as simple as that.

Make your website look great with the theme

While Sports Bench is designed to work with any theme, if you want your league website to look the absolute best it can, you can also purchase the Sports Bench theme. It has all of the integration with the plugin built in. That means there’s no extra work you need to do to get started. Just install both and start adding players, teams and games and get going.
