A Hand and Foot score sheet does one night’s job: it adds up the rounds, someone wins, and the sheet goes in the recycling. Game-Night Score Sheets & Season Standings gives you the pads and the memory. It’s a pack of printable score pads for the seven card and domino games families actually play, plus a workbook that turns every night’s final scores into season standings.
The pads print in Letter and A4. The workbook runs in Excel, Google Sheets and LibreOffice, and it’s yours to keep.
Which games have score pads?
Ten pads cover seven games, and each comes with its rules at a glance on the back:
- Hand and Foot: a 4-round edition, a 5-round edition and a three-team edition (six players as three pairs). Each has columns for clean books, dirty books, red threes, going out, card points, round and running totals, and a point-difference row.
- Mexican Train: a double-12 pad (13 rounds) and a double-15 pad (16 rounds), each seating 8. Lowest total wins.
- Canasta, Gin Rummy, 500 Rum (2 to 6 players) and Spades (bids, tricks and bags).
- Hearts, with a shoot-the-moon column. Lowest total wins.
Every pad has an “Our house rules” box on the front. Every table plays something differently: a fifth round, a different red-three value, a bigger meld. The scoring values on each back are labeled as common values to change, not “official” rules. A filled worked example and a gift insert (“Game nights, kept score”) are included too.
How do the season standings work?
After each game, type one row per player into the Game Night Log: the date, the game, the player and their final score. Then the workbook takes over:
- It looks up whether that game is won HIGH or LOW on the House Rules tab, then works out each player’s place, result and placement points. Ties are shared, and teammates share their team’s place.
- Game Leaderboards keep one ranked table per game: played, wins, win %, average, best score (the lowest one for Hearts and Mexican Train) and current win streak.
- Season Standings ranks everyone overall by placement points and adds a few headlines: who leads, the best win rate, the longest streak, the most-played game and the game that’s due a rematch.
- Player Card: pick a player to see their whole season, game by game, plus their last five results.
Scorers that use your house values
The Hand & Foot Scorer takes each round’s counts (clean and dirty books, red threes, who went out, card points) for two or three teams. It works out round totals, running totals and the point difference using the values on your House Rules tab. The Spades Scorer does the same for bids, tricks, nil, bags carried and the bag penalty, and calls the game at your target score.
Prefer Google Sheets? One click, no import

Own it, don’t rent it
Some score-keeping apps cover only one game, and your history can live on someone else’s servers. This is a set of pads you can print as often as you like and a workbook that’s yours outright. There’s no app, no account and no subscription, and next season starts with a new date on the House Rules tab. If you track the games on your shelf as well as the scores, the Board Game & TTRPG Collection Tracker pairs with it.
To try it first, the free Hand and Foot Score Pad Starter is a Hand and Foot pad pre-filled with a worked round, a blank four-round pad with the rules on its back, and a two-night standings sample spreadsheet. There’s no signup and no email.
A score-keeping template, not a rulebook. Scoring values are common values; your table’s house rules win. The Penhallow family in the example is fictional.
