Cricket Auction Pro
Cricket Auction Screen
"What goes on the screen" is a genuinely practical question for anyone setting up an auction venue for the first time — this page walks through exactly what appears (current player, photo, bid, team, sold status) and how that content is laid out for readability from across a hall.
Why organizers use this
- Large, distance-readable layout for current player, bid amount, and status
- Sold and unsold outcomes are visually distinct, easy to follow at a glance
- Team purse and remaining balance can be included on screen
- Works identically whether displayed on a projector, TV, or streamed capture
Typical use cases
- An AV volunteer setting up the venue screen for the first time
- A committee deciding what information to show publicly versus keep on the console
- A league producing a livestream that captures the auction screen directly
Designing for the back row
Screen layouts are built with distance viewing in mind — large text and high-contrast sold/unsold indicators matter more for a hall audience than a densely packed dashboard would.
Frequently asked questions
- What information appears on the auction screen by default?
- The current player up for bid, their photo and role, the current bid amount, and — once decided — the sold or unsold outcome, all laid out for readability from a distance.
- Can I choose what's shown publicly versus kept private?
- Yes, the public display and TV screen are read-only views separate from the organizer console, so sensitive admin controls never appear on the public screen.
