Sports fans, this one’s for you. Whether you’re cheering for Liverpool or tracking the Chicago Cubs, Leasey Sports and Games is about to become your favorite sidekick.
Built with accessibility at its core, Leasey Sports and Games puts the thrill of the stadium—or ballpark—right into your hands, without requiring you to juggle apps, browsers, or refresh buttons. Here’s why this Leasey module is a game-changer for anyone who follows sports and uses JAWS.
Real-Time Game Monitoring: Feel Every Moment.
Imagine sitting at your desk working, browsing the web, or replying to emails—and then hearing your screen reader announce “Goal for Newcastle!”, “Dodgers score a home run!”, or “Djokovic takes the set!”
Leasey’s real-time monitoring means you don’t miss a beat. Simply tell it which games to watch, and it will do the rest. You’ll be alerted to score changes and game milestones as they happen—no refreshing required. Whether it’s half-time in a soccer match, a boundary in cricket, or a tiebreak in tennis, you’re always in the loop.
You can monitor multiple games and Leasey will announce only what’s new, so your experience stays relevant and distraction-free.
And thanks to a brand-new timer setting, you can now control how frequently Leasey checks for score changes. Choose anywhere from every 30 seconds to every 5 minutes—perfect for tailoring the level of detail depending on the sport.
Instant Score Lookup: Just Ask and Receive!
Don’t want to monitor a match, but still curious about the score? Leasey’s got you covered. Type in a full team or player name, and you’ll get a quick snapshot of the current status—even if the game is already in progress. Want to check the score for several soccer matches on a Saturday afternoon? Just bring up the list of events for that day, skim down the games and check the score for each one.
This now works across soccer, baseball, basketball, cricket, and tennis. Want to know if England is chasing a big total in a test match? Curious about the score in a WTA quarter-final? Just type the name and let Leasey do the rest.
See What’s Coming Up: Browse by Date or Filter by Team!
Want to plan your weekend around games? Or see if your team plays next Wednesday? With Leasey, it’s easy:
- Choose a specific date—or just press Enter for today’s events.
- Apply smart filters to drill down by team, city, or country.
- Get the full schedule in the JAWS Virtual Viewer.
And yes, the filter remembers your last query, so repeated searches are a breeze. Want all English football? Just type “England.” Interested in the Cubs? Just type “Cubs.” Following Rafael Nadal? Just enter his name and see when he plays next.
Post-Match Recaps and Past Results.
Life gets busy. If you missed a game, no worries. Leasey helps you catch up by retrieving the latest results from past games. This feature, originally available for soccer and baseball, now also includes cricket, basketball, and tennis.
Just type the team or player name, and Leasey fetches the last score—so you’re never left out of the conversation.
League Standings and Team Stats at Your Fingertips.
Beyond scores and schedules, Leasey offers rich team information. Curious about league rankings? Want to see upcoming fixtures for the next month? Or relive a recent match? Simply enter a team name, and Leasey gives you everything it can find, including:
- Current league position
- Fixtures (past and upcoming)
- Highlight videos (when available)
Complete Customization for a Seamless Experience.
Leasey offers a host of user-friendly, JAWS-integrated options to tailor your sports experience:
- Enable or disable monitoring sounds: Want to hear a click every time Leasey checks the score? You can. Want total silence unless there’s a change? That’s an option too.
- Speech interrupt control: Choose whether Leasey should cut in when a score changes, or wait until JAWS finishes its current speech.
- Smart reset tools: Clear previous game tracking sessions so you’re starting fresh each time.
- Pause and resume monitoring: Need to take a call or work uninterrupted? Temporarily stop monitoring and pick it up later.
- Adjust the score-check timer: Choose how frequently Leasey checks for updates—especially useful for games like basketball or cricket where a lot of information is returned frequently.
And yes—Leasey knows when the game is over and will automatically stop monitoring, but you can end it manually if needed.
Now Supporting Even More Sports.
Leasey Sports and Games has come a long way. What started with global soccer and baseball has now expanded to include full support for basketball, tennis, and cricket—each sport handled with care to reflect its unique pace and format.
Whether it’s a tiebreak on centre court, a six in the IPL, or a slam dunk in the NBA, Leasey makes sure you hear it first.

Leasey Sports and Games is more than a module—it’s a fan’s best friend. It brings speed, simplicity, and accessibility to sports tracking in a way that’s tailored for screen reader users.
Whether you’re a passionate supporter or a casual observer, Leasey makes it easier than ever to follow the action, feel the energy, and never miss a moment.
