I don't recommend this. We used to do it at the lowest grade levels until we found out kids were teasing other kids at school by saying things like "HA HA - we turned the score off on you on Saturday!" Plus - during games we heard kids tell their teammates how many more points they needed to score before they turned the score off on the other guys and to try to run up the score just to do that. It completely ruined the idea of why we were doing it in the first place.
