ABSTRACT:
A separate differential score display unit is provided at each end of a basketball court, atop or beside of the shot time clock indicators presently used, and in position to be as visible to the players and coaches as is the shot time clock indicators. The differential score display units are color coded, e.g. home team lead shown by green light, or L.E.D.; visitor lead shown in red. The differential score display units may be (1) hard wired to the scoring table and main scoreboard with computerized controls automatically changing the differential display when the score changes; (2) hard wired directly to a separate scoring control; or (3) the differential score display units adapted to receive differential scoring input from suitable signal transmitting units controlled by the scoring table panel. The electrical circuitry employed to give the differential display is a modified hand-held or table top calculator type circuitry wherein instead of displaying the minus sign (as in the calculator circuit), when the visiting team leads in scoring the "red" display is actuated simultaneously with inactivation of the "green" display.
