Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
As we continue to move towards less paper used at an event, one feature that stands out is the announcer report. It would be nice to have a tablet-friendly page in the system that shows information about the current match. We have a third-part app I wrote that we have used at some of my events that the game announcers like, but ideally this would just be built into the system.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
A page that show the current match and information about each team playing in the match. This is similar to issue #41; however, that issue seems more focused on allowing the announcer to control the match and this is just to see information about the match. There is lots of information you could display, but some of the things I have found useful are:
- Match number
- Team numbers
- Team names
- Team's locations
- Team's current rank
- Team's rookie year
- Fun facts (we don't always do this, but when we have time and extra volunteers we try to collect that information during inspections)
- Awards (I pull this information from `ftc-events`)
It could also be nice to integrate some way for the game announcer to the see the final match score as well, and maybe a timer for how much time is left in the match. Since I am doing this using the API that seemed more trouble than it was worth to add, and our announcers can always see the audience display for that information.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
Created my own 3rd-party app, but the learning curve on it is a bit steep and it isn't the easiest to setup or use.
**Additional context**
Here is what the UI I used looks like. There are arrows at the top to go to next/previous match, but you can also swipe left and right to do the same. The drop down is to skip to a specific match (useful for when we come back from lunch break).
