About SportScore
SportScore provides a JSON API delivering real-time scores, statistics, lineups, and standings for football, basketball, cricket, and tennis across hundreds of leagues and competitions worldwide. Coverage includes major competitions such as the FIFA World Cup, UEFA Champions League, NBA, IPL, and ATP/WTA tours, along with match results, fixtures, and transfer information.
The API is offered free with no API key required, and documentation is available as an interactive reference or a raw OpenAPI 3.0 YAML spec, alongside a developer portal. It is intended for developers building applications that need live sports data, including integration with AI assistants and MCP hosts such as Claude and Cursor. The only stated requirement for use is attribution via a "Powered by SportScore" link on pages displaying the data.
