75-ball and 90-ball bingo host checklist
A bingo caller draws numbers; a host makes sure everyone is playing the same game. Use this checklist to agree the format and winning condition, prepare separate player cards and keep a clear pause-and-check procedure.
Event: ______________ Host: ______________ Date: ______________
| Preparation item | Your plan / checked |
|---|---|
| Format: 75-ball or 90-ball | |
| Separate matching player cards ready | |
| Winning pattern or stages announced | |
| Caller visible and number readable | |
| Voice tested or visual-only plan agreed | |
| Call pace agreed | |
| Pause / repeat procedure agreed | |
| Person checking claims identified | |
| Simultaneous-claim procedure agreed | |
| Previous game cleared before new game |
This checklist is for an in-person entertainment game. It does not provide legal advice, sell tickets, handle stakes or prizes, or validate winners.

How to use this resource
- Choose 75-ball or 90-ball before starting. Check that the player cards match the format; a caller screen is not a player card.
- Show or explain the winning condition. For 75-ball, announce the pattern; for a 90-ball game, agree the stages you will use.
- Test number visibility and any optional voice. Agree a pace that the people in the room can follow, including a way to ask for a repeat.
- On a claim, pause drawing and check the card against the actual call history and announced condition before continuing.
The downloadable CSV matches the printed table. It has no formulas and is not an app-import file. Entered browser-tool data, when offered, has its own download button.
75-ball and 90-ball need different cards
The familiar 75-ball card uses B-I-N-G-O columns. A 90-ball ticket uses a different layout, commonly three rows and nine columns. Do not mix the cards or change the number range partway through a game.
The host should state the winning condition before the first draw. A checklist does not verify cards, generate player tickets or determine a winner.
Plan for a missed call or an interruption
Agree whether you will repeat the most recent number, pause automatic calling or review the call history. A spoken announcement is optional support; keep the visual result available when sound is off or unavailable. Before a new game, confirm that the caller and players are all ready to start again.
iPhone
Bingo Caller
Bingo Caller runs local 75-ball or 90-ball calling on one iPhone, with manual or automatic draws and optional available system speech. Players bring their own separate cards; the host checks claims.
