Sportscore Mcp

backspace-me/sportscore-mcp

Wraps the free SportScore REST API so Claude can fetch live scores, standings, top scorers, brackets, and player stats across football, basketball, cricket, and tennis. No API key required. You get eight tools: match lists, match detail by slug, team schedules, league tables, top scorers and assisters, player metadata, knockout brackets, and live tracker data. Responses include a "Powered by SportScore" attribution that must stay visible under the free tier terms. Rate limit is roughly 1000 requests per IP per day with 60 second edge caching, which won't be a problem in conversational workflows. Useful when you want real time sports data without managing your own scraper or paying for a commercial feed.
