Free Printable Canasta Score Sheet
What is on the All7s Canasta Score Sheet?
The All7s printable Canasta score sheet is built for Modern American Canasta. Each sheet covers a full game and gives you space for both teams to track every round, with a running total down the side. The layout matches how scoring actually works at the table, so you do not have to redraw the format every time you play.
Each round on the sheet has a place for:
- Meld point totals (face cards, aces, and number cards)
- Canasta bonuses (mixed and natural)
- Three bonuses (positive or negative)
- Going-out bonus
- Penalty for cards left in hand
How to use the score sheet during a game
At the end of each round, the team that goes out adds together their meld points, canasta bonuses, three bonuses, and going-out bonus. The other team adds the same except for the going-out bonus, then subtracts the value of any cards still in their hands. Both totals get written into the next row of the sheet, and the running total updates down the side. First team to 5,000 points wins.
If you are new to Modern American Canasta scoring, our full Canasta Scoring Guide walks through every point value, meld bonus, and going-out condition with examples.
Frequently asked questions
Can I print the score sheet on letter or A4?
Yes. The score sheet PDF is sized to print cleanly on US Letter (8.5 by 11 inches) and A4 paper. Choose "fit to page" in your printer settings if the borders look cropped.
Does this work for Hand and Foot?
The same format works for Hand and Foot Canasta with one small change. Hand and Foot is usually played as four rounds with cumulative scoring rather than to 5,000 points. Use the same per-round columns and just stop after four rounds.
Is the score sheet for Modern American or Classic Canasta?
The All7s score sheet is set up for Modern American Canasta, which is the version most American players play today. If you are playing Classic Canasta, the per-round structure still works but a few of the bonus values are different. Our scoring guide covers both.
How many score sheets does one game use?
Most Modern American Canasta games last four to seven rounds and fit on a single sheet. A long, evenly-matched game might run two sheets.
Can I get a printed pad of these instead of printing my own?
Our deluxe Canasta sets ship with a printed score pad included. If you only need the digital version, the free download above is the same layout.
